yesterday's condo

Nova is in a really good mood this morning.. testing and shooting was followed up with 10 mins of scratches, purrs and kissies on the head (MOM!!! what is WRONG with you).. but she let me do it without too much fuss :).

For anyone who's about to suggest I can knock a few points off that by tapping the meter, her other ear was 106 ;).. That's the OCD gods laughing at me.. I can't recall ever trying to smudge a number before.. but with her AMPS streak I thought ok.. just this once.. learned my lesson! But I'm still keeping the 101 ;).

For what it's worth.....101 is green in MY book. :lol:
Hope you have a great day Dawn! Glad Nova is in a good mood...LOL
 
Re: 4/16 - Nova - AMPS=101

Looks pretty green to me too. I would have tested again in 5 minutes, then again... and erased anything over 99. Hahaha!
 
Re: 4/16 - Nova - AMPS=101

Truthfully, if I wasn't so ashamed of trying to smudge the numbers (all the time I spend staring at her SS and comparing to others would be a real waste of time if I was fishing for numbers), I'd probably STILL be testing trying to get a green haha..

Hey Dawn what meter are you using. You know if used that other one
you told me about it would have rounded down to 99. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Funny how it is almost impossible to fudge the numbers. I was alwasy too afraid when
Max would get a 103 and wanted to call it a 99. I thought maybe I would jinx
myself or not be able to explain a trend if I did not disclose the truth.

I am so glad that Nova read Max's condo yesterday and let you kiss her today.
That really brought a smile to my face.

Great start to the day!

Dawn you are too funny because I feel the same way, I hate 3 digit numbers now. Scrabble got a 107 the other morning and I was like omg! Hahahah! You guys are doing great and a 101 is nothing to worry about and still green in my book too!!!! Have a great day!

We had a really good run for 3 days there.. anyone who has read my condo knows how excited I was.. I think I've shown extreme patience the last 5.5 days not touching anything! :). I really want to give Nova just a teeny weeny nudge.. I'm trying to control myself.. but the side arguing against the idea is starting to lose :).
 
Re: 4/16 - Nova - AMPS=101, +3=122, +7=122

Let it rest for the time being. It's time to PARTY at Max's !! Stu is waiting for Nova to show up, face the music, and DANCE!

Jacking Nova's condo to whine:

Well Jerrys test results came back.. there is a blip on the radar.. Hypothyroidism.. yeah.. with an O.. not an ER.. an HCM cat with hypothyroidism.. go freaking figure.. they said that the normal range for him was 20-40 nmol/L and he was 13.8.. the kicker is.. his blood was taken at the end of a 3 hour stress/test-a-thon at the vet.. so that 13.8 is may be drastically artificially elevated..

They are calling around trying to figure out what we do next.. prob won't know until monday because it's tough to get ahold of people Friday evening..

It's so funny in a not-very-funny sort of way.. we've tested his thyroid plenty of times.. always figured hey not much of a point.. we know by now that hyper-T didn't cause his HCM, but I'm never willing to give up hope that there might be some chance we can help him especially since he's so young.. and his doctor even said on wed that we could skip it..and I was like meh.. let's just do the whole thing.. we know the results will be fine, but it's always good to have an up to date normal to compare to if things change..

Of course reading about the symptoms.. it all makes sense.. Jerrys been slowing down (which is why we did the tests early this go around).. and sleeping on top of a heater vent.. (I figured it was arthritis and bought an always on heating pad for him and made snuggly beds all over the house with warm blankets)... but his heart tests went pretty good (considering hehe).. and his movement seemed pretty good..

Anyways, I don't know anything yet.. on some sick and twisted level.. I'm sort of glad that "something" came up.. because I felt something was wrong..and all I could give as symptoms to his heart doctor was "well.. he.. just seems slower..and a bit more whiny.. he still seems happy..but he seems different..".. but when the heart tests went ok.. I thought ok.. I just haven't been paying close enough attension because of all the fussing over Nova.. I need to try to be a better mommy to all of them, not just her.

Most definitely I'd rather NOTHING came up..but I can't do much about that.. so I'm trying to look on the positive side :).
