Things are once again full of smiles here at the Furrydance house! Although Miles was doing great on Sunday, got to have his IV catheter removed (and that splint and bandage) and he was eating, I figured both he and I needed the rest, so I left him at work (the vet--that's where I work and why I have such a great relationship with my vet, hahameow). Dr E gave him sucralfate yesterday to sooth his tummy and this morning when I got in to work at 7am, I was never happier to see normal poop in his litter box and all his food eaten up!
Needless to say, he had cabin fever and luckily we could shut the french door that lead to our 'cat suites' but because it's all windows and we could see each other, well...almost every time he asked for attention, of course he got it. I had to laugh when Dr E said when she checked in on him Sunday, he leapt out of the cage, right up on her shoulder. Not a surprise to most Cornish Rex owners but most vets don't see them in their true light when they are at the vets!
And as you could tell from the photo yesterday, Bosco and Zeus and Carlos were all back to eating on their own and maybe had 80% of their pep back...but they still had the squirts. They have had no more vomiting and tonight when I got home, they were back to their normal level of activity--busy! And they all wanted dinner, right now!
So I fed them, scooped the boxes and didn't find anything as loose as yesterday and then I gave them their Cerenia injections and a capsule of sucralfate each and I am hoping by tomorrow, that they all will be feeling as good as Miles is today! Hiro somehow avoided picking up whatever they all had, and all the adults are still fine, too.
I hope I have a very, very uneventful week and if all looks good, we are hoping that Miles can finally move into 'The Happy Place' and soon thereafter, Zeus and Carlos head to their new home, too. Thanks to the 'Purrin Up a Storm' committee out there in the CB, I know we were all in your thoughts and hearts and it's that caring that makes the burdens easier to carry!
