China is definitely figuring out how to eat with less toofies and with annoying stitches everywhere, but she still really hates the bupe. I have to keep the syringe hidden until I have a good hold on her or she's gone!

If it weren't for the fact that she acts like she feels much better when she's on it, I might consider not giving it, but once it IS working, her appetite is better and she eats more, so it has to be painful for her to eat, and once it's starts working and the pain decreases, she's able to eat.....so I continue to "hide" it ...of course at some point, she may figure that out too..she's too smart for her own good at times

Not freaking out over the higher than normal numbers today. She's been through a lot and even though she's home now, her body has to still be stressed, so just going to hold the course and see what happens.

She still won't smile and let me see her pretty clean toofies :lol:

Hope Neko is doing great today after her dental and that all the kitties are feeling frisky.

(yes, we're in the bullseye of an ice storm..followed by up to 8" of snow....I HATE winter!)

I hate winter too! I'm glad China is eating good for you :-D Bupe was NOT fun to give to my Chyna either :? But it did help her after her extractions. I hope that China continues to feel better and I am sending many fast healing vines :-D

I'm glad China is eating better and the bupe is helping her. None of my cats ever liked taking bupe either. Be careful in that messy weather.
 
Re: 12/20 China AMPS 312,+3 217..eating better

Honestly, I never understand why the vets insist on giving us oral bupe for a kitty that's just had a dental. It can be given as a subcutaneous injection (just like Lantus). It's not like none of us know how to give a sub-q shot!!

I'm glad to hear that China is feeling better.
 
Re: 12/20 China AMPS 312,+3 217..eating better

Wow Sienne!! I wish I'd known that before we did the dental!!

I didn't know it could be given Sub Q...the only way I've ever seen anyone giving it is P.O.

Good to know for the future!

Keep on sliding China, and keep on eating please. I'm glad she starting to get the hang of it. Giving oral bupe to my civie requires a "surprise" and a scruff hold. Must be even harder to put that syringe in when you know their mouth is already hurting. Sounds like you've got a good dose too.

China - I conned 'em into giving me extra fuds today, acted like I was starvin'. Got some good stuff too - canned food. ~Neko

You GO Neko!! You keep giving them that starving routine all the way through Christmas...or even longer if they'll buy it ~ China

Well she was going down..now she's on the way back up, but it's really unusual to see a rather "normal" curve for her anyway. Like I said though, I'm not stressing out about it (much)....she's been through a lot (so has her bean but nobody's feeding me anything special :lol: :lol:
 
Re: 12/20 China PMPS 238..eating better

Well we have a lower PMPS than we did a +9 so hopefully she'll start to come back down to better numbers for her!

Recap

AMPS 312
+3 217
+6 167
+9 266

PMPS 238
 
Re: 12/20 China PMPS 238..eating better

Good stuff China is figuring out the eating business with your new mouth :-D
Hope she slides down nice for you tonight. And sorry to hear about the bupe battle. We've ever only had the injectable.
Be careful in that horrible winter weather you have coming!
 
Thanks for the visits today everyone!

Sure hope I don't lose power with this storm...we haven't got the best power company and the fact the head office is over 400 miles away means there's a lot of power lines between here and there to snap!





Hope everyone in the path is safe, warm and stocked up with food, candles and Ice Melt!!

Hi Chris, Hope you and China are okay in that crazy weather. Eating better always makes the beans feel better, so please keep it up, China.
If I was closer, I would come and feed you something special! :lol:
