Good Morning, Everyone,

Rusty seems to be coming down gradually from the vetty stress yesterday. He was tired last night. After he finished playing with his bell balls at midnight, he fell asleep on the couch. Edward had to go downstairs to get him and encourage him to come upstairs. So he spent his night, as always, sleeping between his beans. This morning we had a good test and shot. Breakfast (Wellness turkey) has been eaten in part (he was eating his nighttime food when we got up this morning), and our kitty is asleep in his little bed by the radiator. I suspect that today will be a day of recuperation for him. Rusty and Edward will be home alone until around +9 or so. I'm going to climb St. Regis Mt., a beautiful, medium-size mountain near Paul Smiths, with some of our group. The boys will have some good outdoor time later, after it warms up (it's 31 degrees right now).

Thanks again to everyone for your support yesterday. I hope that this flare of pancreatitis will not last too long and that Rusty will be able to get back to more representative numbers. I'm sure he'll feel better now that his anal glands have been expressed. That must have been bothering him. I'm chagrined that I didn't know what his "scooting" was indicative of.

Wishing you all a fine day,

Ella & Rusty

Healing vines for Rusty that the pacreatitis is very short lived and you caught it super early. Sleeping with the beans is great. Have wonderful day Ella!

Morning Ella ~O) ~O) ~O)

Enjoy your climb today. I hope you have good weather and that the climb is an enjoyable one. Sounds like fun!

Rusty is off to a sunny yellow. Maybe blues later today Rusty? I am sure he is worn out from all the vetty stuff yesterday. I too would expect a day of rest for him. Too cute that he fell asleep on the sofa, nice that you brought him up to bed. You rest well today Rusty. Mannie says he will be by in a bit, to bring your mamabaean his ~O) delivery, and spend some time on your radiators before you guys head out for kitty fun.

I too hope his bout with pancreatitis is a short one. I too went through the same thing with Elsa and her anal glands. She was sitting lopsided, I couldn't figure out why... we had a vet apt set for something else for her, and it was then that we found out she was severely impacted on one side, there for the lopsided sit. who knew? I am certain that Rusty feels much better. I know Elsa did. :-D

Have a great day today!

Morning Ella and have a great time climbing St. Regis Mt., very impressive. I hope it warms up. I hope, too, the pancreatitis flare is short lived with caught so early. Sending Rusty healing vines. I would have never known what the scooting thing was either.

Wooh! So energetic Ella, climb a mountain!? I cannot imagine myself climbling even stairs :lol: :lol:
Come down Rusty! Sending get well vines to Rusty!
 
Re: 10/24 Rusty AMPS 204

Hope Rusty can relax today and feel better.
It seems to be one thing after another.
Hope the pancreatitis subsides quickly.

Enjoy your climb. Sounds nice.

Sounds like a nice day for everyone, doing what they love to do. Paws crossed for the p. flair-up to be a mild one.
 
Re: 10/24 Rusty AMPS 204

I hope you had a good climb today. Hopefully Rusty will start feeling better soon and give you some better numbers as he improves.

Hi again,

The boys had a good day with outdoor time, combing, and a little playing. I tested Rusty when I got home at +9 and he had come down to 93, so he was green for a while. Not such a bad PMPS, either! He had good appetite for his dinner of Wellness Chicken and Edward said that he ate all his lunch. We had our usual schmooze while listening to the news on NPR in the late afternoon. At the moment he is in his basket.

The hike up St. Regis Mt. was fun. Very muddy, however, and the rocks were slippery. The woods were beautiful and the view from the summit was great. It was a cloudy day, but you could see all the distant mountains. I tried out my new pack to see how it carried and it was excellent.

Tired now. Gotta visit a few condos before I collapse. Tomorrow we are finally going to do the paddle we had to postpone twice. We have to take advantage of this good weather while it lasts. It will be an all-dayer. (It's a 2-hour drive, the last 6 miles on a jeep track; then a carry of about a third of a mile to the lake (Lake Lila, an absolute gem). I probably won't post tomorrow until the late afternoon-early evening, so don't worry about us. Rusty will hold the fort and will listen to the radio and be served his lunch and snacks in his automat. He'll be happy to see us get home! He hopes that some of his pals will visit him. If it's a warm day, they can sit on the porches.

Everyone have a good evening. Continuing to send healing vines to all who need them, and continuing to keep Claudia in our thoughts and prayers.

Ella & Rusty

Hey kitties, Please come visit me tomorrow.
Your pal,
Rusty
