Yesterday's Condo
I am so glad yesterday is over. Gabby finally forgave me at about 2:00 AM. She snuggled and purred as opposed to walking away or ignoring me. I have a whole new appreciation for beans who struggle to get food into a cat who's getting insulin. At one point, the kitchen floor was littered with bowls containing Wellness (with gravy), baby food (with syrup), baby food (with gravy), Wellness + baby food + gravy, just gravy, and then there was Gizmo's bowl. Gabby would stare at the bowl, maybe take a lick, and walk away. Sometimes she would eat something. She got a couple of syringes full of baby food, one of syrup, and then I tossed in the towel and threw an appetite stimulant down her throat when her numbers hit the mid-60s. The bowls were cleaned about an hour or so later. And she ate well this morning.
The effects of the anesthesia seem to be minimal at this point. She looks more alert and is more social. She spent a bit of time in the cube. She's sleeping at the moment which is something Gabby's bean should be doing. I'm exhausted.
