Good morning LL. Today's Condo takes a nod from my Chinese food menu: "Thank You Served Two Ways"
Thank you for your travel vines and support
Yesterday was an absolute rollercoaster for both of us. After 18 days at home, entering "Regulation Land" and 12 days of blues/greens, I started our trip with a heavy and very stressed out heart. It was a hard commute - snow, rain, bad viz, stressful windshield wipers for the guy. 2 hours in, Leo was 387 and I just started to cry. I was very bummed all night until bedtime. Then I woke up nadir to a 53/48. :shock: Dafuq? Thankfully I didn't blow off the bounce. He has a tendency to refuse food on arrival and then tank. Today should be interesting since I'm having trouble measuring his new dose anyway. It may be a tad under.
Leo arrived stressed and out of sorts, as usual. Refused 3 types of food - he'd go up and sniff it like he was hungry but couldn't bring himself to eat it. Nausea? I scratched him and rubbed him, and eventually got him to play laser and chase my finger around the back of the chair. We also got to resume the fun game of Got Your Tail under the corner of my bed (I shove my hand under and grab whatever random cat part I can find, rough it up, and yell Got Your Tail when I find his tail). He is much more restrained with his claws - he really understands this one is a game and he's the one who initiates it by looking at me expectantly when I walk into the room, and then zipping part way under the bed with his tail exposed. He played and purred after a while. Peed in the LB but poo'd in the car (he squatted in the front seat and I was able to emergency pull over, grab him and lift him into the box JUST IN TIME. He's lost interest in trying to get to the litterbox himself.
Thank you for your Dosing by Drops wealth of information
I asked about how to dose counting drops and many of you gave your expertise and insight, and answered some questions that had been lingering even after I read many other saved bookmarks on the topic. The biggest misconception for me was that a "drop" is what rolls off the end of a needle. I'd read elsewhere about drop size, roundness, etc., and I was guessing and trying to be consistent with something less than "one drop." But another :?: - is it when the syringe is held horizontally or vertically? It seems it is different. Thank you from the bottom of my heart and my bad eyesight. I'm bookmarking my own condo
Wendy, Rhiannon - I'm sorry I didn't reply last night - I was quite in a funk - thank you for visiting. Back to long days at work for me, with runs home to test at lunch.
Everyone have a great day.
