9/8 Zener PMPS 262;+2 324 ATrk

Zener's condo 9/7/11

Good morning LL,

We are sending positive thoughts and healing vines to all our kitties and beans in LL who especially need support. Zener appears to be slowly sliding down from his last bounce and our skipped dose. Since it appears his bounce is breaking we opted to go to the sk 1.25 dose and shoot what appears to be slowly dropping numbers.

And Sienne, we think he is turning into a "gobbler"! He ate great at AMPS, then at +1 he ate like a lumberjack and proceeded to have puckus amongus - all regurgitated food. It was an important time in his cycle and his numbers were still sliding downward so we thought it was important to get some food in him. We waited about 20 minutes then tried again, this time with higher carb, just in case. I'll be getting his +2 shortly and we'll see if things are nice and easy or if the express train is about to leave the station!

Re: 9/8 Zener AMPS 190;+1 192;+2 174;+3 165 Vomit comet A Tr

It must be the pukus season - our civvie cat puked up an impressive hairball this morning. I guess she didn't want Zener to feel alone on the vomit comet!

Both Zener and Tillie (our civvie) are having a lovely morning nap in the sun, enjoying a day that has a little autumn crisp in the air.

Good luck with the decrease! Zener is looking good. Sorry about the pukus. Hopefully they stop their puking contest. :lol: Have a wonderful day guys!

I think Smokey was feeling left out of the contest. Puked up a furball yesterday- right on the bed... Had to wash the sheets!

These numbers are so much better than yesterday and Zener has been eating better today so far, despite the vomit comet this morning.

Zener was up on his kitty condo today, it has special ramps to accommodate his CH. It was pretty nice to see him up there last night and today as he hasn't felt like getting up there in quite a long time. Liz was watching him this afternoon feeling very nervous about his balance, which is worse since his peripheral neuropathy, and he fell! It was pretty frightening for her to watch and not be able to get there in time. He was okay, landed on his side and was none the worse for wear. Liz blocked off the ramps with a towel to keep him safe for now.

We have appointment with the vet next week for another acupuncture treatment, which appears to help his appetite. And, we will ask her to check his anal glands. He's had problems in the past with that and when he needs them expressed, we often notice his walking being worse and more falls, and this was before his FD. He is feeling very feisty tonight and just chased Tillie across the living room!

Thanks Sienne! And yes, more would be fabulous! He's up into yellow at the end of this cycle, so no stressing over shooting a dropping number tonight. It's always something different. He would hate for us to be bored. ;-)
