Helma, the German Shepherd also needed care. I'll be picking up keys tomorrow for more cat-care this weekend. Annie and the kittens keep me busy, too.
Annie has been to see the vet and was given more de-worming (poor dear cat) and a shot of B12 to help with stress. They also gave me some FortiFlora (feline nutritional supplement to manage cats with diarrhea) to add to her food to help with the diarrhea. They are not sure why she is having problems as there are many reasons for loose stool. She is up a little in weight since last week and now weighs 6lbs 4oz. She was 5lbs. 4oz 10 days ago. Her stool sample showed no parasites and was clear of any bacteria.
One of my cat-sitting clients dropped in after work tonight to see the kittens. She really enjoyed their antics and also spent a lot of time talking with Annie. If only she didn't have 3 cats already. I just know she would scoop her up.
Nana needs to brag again. I just love this hat on Riley and wanted to share it. I'll be taking her to the book store tomorrow and we'll share some lemon poppy-seed cake, too. It's her favorite.
I hope she wears this hat tomorrow. It looks so cute with the curls.
This post was written yesterday. How quickly things can change. Thank you to all who have sent good thoughts for Mr. Ed. Our darling Ed had a bad tumble today and has lost all use of his back left leg. He was at the clinic for x-rays and is home now resting beside the wood stove. He cannot walk so we are having to carry him to the box. There is a chance his leg will recover but only a possibility. Our vet will look at him again tomorrow.
It's been a hell of a day.
hugs, Deb
