Grant news
Well, he pooped a little bit today. I think every little bit helps. He ate a
little at lunch, but even when well, he doesn't like eating in the middle of the day. However, tonight, he *wanted* something. Kept turning his nose up at the gruel I make but instead of leaving the kitchen, he went over to see what Pearl was eating so, I knew he really wanted something, so I opened a can of chicken Fancy Feast. Well, sans tuna juice even, he plowed into it. He didn't over eat, but ate a decent amount, especially considering that he hasn't been eating normal amounts. That was what put the bell on in my head to check the cat box. I don't expect we are done by a long shot (there was a LOT of hair in there) and he is still doing some of that licky thing, but by golly it was nice to see a real "dig in" at the wet food like a normal cat. |

Good news Karen. He should be passing it. I know what you mean about resorting to the FF. I've had to do that with Scarlett even though I fully planned to never expose these kittens to "junk food". She just turns her nose up at the good stuff, even though she was raised on it since she started owning me. She's just too skinny to let her get hungry enough to eat what I give them. I don't know what it is about "good" food, but it must be nasty! Any way, sorry for my own rant and purrs for Grant to pass the rest of the big hairy poopy. -- Cheryl |

That's wonderful news! Yay, Grant!
Continued "Move that hairball through and OUT" prayers and purrs are on the way. And that was good logic on your part -- getting that nasty hair out, even if it wasn't the whole thing, makes more room so he'll feel hungry and want some food again. And here's to seeing the food help make the rest of that nasty thing keep moving until it's out. P.S. Don't beat yourself up over this. I think the only cats who AREN'T susceptible to this happening are the hairless ones like the cat in the Austin Powers movies. I think that kitty's name is Mr. Bigglesworth, and other than him and his ilk, every cat that there is could go through the same thing Grant is dealing with. Donna, Captain, and Stanley |

Oh! and just now he really stretched himself around in the kitty cup and did upside downy head instead of just staying huddled in a curl like he has been. First time in days I've seen him "relax" like that. Yay! So glad to hear this. I know exactly how you feel. ) -- Marina, Frank and Nikki marina (dot) kurten (at) pp (dot) inet (dot) fi Pics at http://uk.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/frankiennikki/ and http://community.webshots.com/user/frankiennikki |
