KFC's weekend
After I posted on Thursday about how well she was doing, she had a bit of an
off day on Friday. She didn't really want to eat the expensive cat food, nor the tuna, nor the beef mince. So she didn't. Boyfie got to hoover up the tuna and the top-end cat food, he couldn't believe his luck ;-) Saturday was different when chicken was on the menu again..she scarfed it down. She has always purred loudly when she is eating something she approves of and I could hear her purring over her food bowl from the next room. She seems to have got over her "episode of madness" that she experienced when she was so desperate to wander. I think she had some sort of infection going on there, elderly people can exhibit signs of dementia, even if previously they were quite ok if they get infections, so why not a cat? Today it was really sunny, so I let her into the conservatory with the door open to the outside to see if she would try to go outside. She didn't. She jumped up on top of the freezer, scaled the wire netting on the wall (I need to get a pic of this, Edmund Hillary eat your heart out..) to catch the best rays. Like normal. She continued to stay by the house, sunbathing on top of the freezer later This is Boyfie's favourite spot, so he was disgruntled to find her on it when he wanted to use it himself;-) Kitty is eating like a horse this weekend. She has put on weight, in fact I would hardly describe her as frail now, she's enjoyed the sunshine and shown no inclination to wander. I will let her out into the garden tomorrow after work and stay with her, I mean I will give her the opportunity that she always had to go out or stay in until that episode of madness that made me confine her to the house. She has improved so much. I don't know what to attribute it to. Your purrs and prayers, the vet's injections, the rehydration fluid, all must have helped. KFC has had a great weekend and because she has, I have too. Nothing knocks my spirit down into the bucket like when my beloveds are ill. I would like to take her back to TED and say "look! look at her now, you were nearly giving up..." I won't though, it would cost me another consultation fee. I might phone him. I realise how old she is and that she has CRF, which can be really difficult to manage, appetite-wise, and we struggle with this on a daily basis. However she is particularly fine at the moment! It's not easy. Tweed |

What fabulous news!! I'm really glad she's gained a bit of weight and
has an appetite. (I love the part about her purring over her food.) And she can scale netting! I think she got 9 or 18 extra lives in there somehow. Purrs for to continue feeling better and enjoying life. Joyce Christina Websell wrote: After I posted on Thursday about how well she was doing, she had a bit of an off day on Friday.

"Christina Websell" wrote in message ... We missed a mouse Boyfie had brought one back, but it was not easily found. I found it when I was cleaning up today. Past it's sell-by-date unfortunately ;-) Such a pity. Kitty would have loved to scarf it up. She does so love that wild food. Btw, it was not in the house. I am very alert to "wild food" that Boyfie thinks it's a good idea to bring for KFC since he has released live rats and birds in my kitchen previously. Which was not fun. Fortunately he has now learnt to kill them first.. |

KFC has had a great weekend and because she has, I have too. Nothing knocks my spirit down into the bucket like when my beloveds are ill. I am so happy to read this (that she's doing well, not that it knocks you down). I am like you (as I suspect are many others here), when the babies are ill, it's very, very hard on me. I imagine it's harder on them, when they are ill, but I end up a wreck.

I probably would, but then I have that desire to say, "I told you so", oftentimes to my regret smile.

However she is particularly fine at the moment! *It's not easy. I'm going through CRF with my Barnabus. He's still early stage, but he does have the very "testy" appetite. He prefers chicken or turkey baby food, though he'll eat beef occasionally. Then if meowmie makes her baked pork, he has to have bites of that. The only "human" food (that I cooked) that he really wants, well that and New York steak. It's so scary when he doesn't want to eat one of his meals, and he isn't the age of KFC, and I can barely imagine how hard it is for you. I am so happy that things are still improving.
