yesterday

punkin's his usual furry, purry self this morning. he was in the 40's yesterday, so this is just a bounce. breakfast eaten, CPC status maintained for him and anya, haven't given him his pill pockets yet. we're weaning off of the gaba - i think today will be the last dose - and i couldn't remember if he got one yesterday or not. anyway, that's next.

anya had the morning zoomies - running and sliding on the bare floor, jumping on the back of the recliner to start the circuit through the upstairs. i found one sock "dead" at her paws in the hallway this morning, and a Christmas ribbon she'd found somewhere was executed as well.

today's punkin-tasks: get blood drawn or scheduled in prep for the dental and to recheck his IGF numbers. CSU had said that rarely the SRT can cause hypothyroid so we'll make sure and get that checked as well.

i would say this is the first week since diagnosis that his hair has looked normal. he's grooming more, but i think some of it is just his BG is better controlled. yesterday his behavior was pre-diagnosis as well - he was cuddling with me, licking my face and neck (UGH). i know it was just because he was scared at the vet's, but i was still happy to be on the receiving end of all of his snuggles. it feels like we are finally back on track again after all the Freestyle Lite disaster.

Go Anya....Love hearing about her zoomies and her hunting accomplishments.

And yeah for punkin.....Its really good to hear that he is looking better and feeling better too.

This brightened my day and put a smile on my face.....I'm glad you didnt edit it out.

The beauty of the human spirit is that we can hold both sadness and happiness at the same time. Both have their place and both are important. And its OK to hold one perhaps a little more tightly and a little closer than the other a period of time.

And Kim's Simon mentioned that it was Kiwi's day 14. Woot!!

hugs,

What a great whole house report! I love Anya's clothing "kills." Too funny. The coat is such a good indicator of overall health - I agree with you that Punkin's coat has improved because his BG is better controlled. It made a huge difference in the health of Mookie's coat.

Kitty cuddles are always good, even when they're induced by vetty fear. :lol: Have a wonderful day, Julie.

Do you think punkin was saying "thank you for saving me from that place"? What a sweet guy. He does have a LOT of fur to groom. I'm glad he's doing so well. :-D Anya, you are a great huntress! And CPC, too - phew! :lol: :lol:

Nice diving Pumpkin! Good to see those greens fairly regularly.

And when you lick the momma bean - they especially like it when you lick their lips! My civvie Theo is quite the face washer - I think it just shows how much Pumpkin cares for you and all you are doing for him.

Wow, that's quite the swan dive Punkin!

I don't know if its a coincidence or not, but in the past 2 months (she was diagnosed a little over 3 months ago) Ruby has taken to waiting for me when I get out of the shower and then wants to rub her face on mine, like she's marking me as belonging to her. Its very sweet, but ewww....Fancy Feast breath is not fresh breath!

So cool to hear he was acting cuddly! Simon is a lot less cuddly than he was before insulin. I really don't think he minds the pokies. He has never protested! But for some reason, as soon as we started shooting, his voice changed and he wasn't as cuddly anymore. The best I get is the 5am "kitty in yo face" chirps and paw touches to try to get fuds early. Seriously, Simon. . .you get a +9 snack in the auto feeder!

It is a sad week in LL.

What great greens for Punkin. Yay! How wonderful on the cuddles. He loves his mama bean and just wanted you to know. Wonderful news on his fur too. It is amazing when they become their fluffy old selves again. Have a great night Julie!
