Here I am, after a slightly eventful week, which included a temporary kitty, vomiting and more snow.

Leo is doing okay. Something's up, just haven't figured out what it is. He's now up to 30u and climbing fast due to out of control bg's. I've been procrastinating on the R but I gotta start it again. This week he was sick, and vomiting for several hours one night. This is extremely unusual for him and scared me. I don't know if it was the food, but I deeply suspect it. The next day he got back to normal but that food is off the menu permanently. (Friskies Turkey and Giblets) Other than that, he's pretty normal, just a smidge "off" with climbing numbers. Here's our obligatory cute pic, he was having a nap with his foot on my leg while I was on the laptop this morning.. so I did some contortions to reach the camera and got the shot. If I sit on the floor, he will come sit with me no matter where in the house he is.. somehow he knows I'm on the floor.. maybe he hears old creaking bones? PS: how do you like my jammies? LOL

Then this week I got a kittysitting job for Milo, whose owner jmflake posted on FDMB a couple weeks ago. She's on vacation and her pretty high dose boy needed a place to stay. He's adorable:

He's deaf, and has severe neuropathy, as well as some sort of condition causing insulin resistance:
http://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?key=tYXurtGG1oRckXQGfzc-qKg&output=html He's learning to "like" me, which means he is not biting me EVERY time I show up with food or the test kit. He's actually adapting very well for a kitty who misses his mom and his house, and smells 3 other kitties and keeps getting poked by the Crazy Lady With The Food.
 
OMG Carolyn -- Leo is adorable! (I have a soft spot for orinch kitties.) My GA kitty, George, was one of those cats who always had to be touching me. It was so sweet! What a lucky guy he is to have you and vice versa.

Milo is a cutie as well. I'm impressed you're able to test a cat who wants to chew on your hand. Gabby has attempted to kill my catsitter when she shoots. Tests are out of the question. At least Milo is adapting.
 
Cool, a two-for-one condo, love those! Especially when they have pics. I love love love Leo. Milo IS adorable! Boy, between the two of them you're shooting a lot of insulin in your house this week, aren't you?
 
Your Leo is just so adorable Carolyn.
Thanks for the picture. You know I have a soft spot for big orinch cats, lol. :smile:
I forgot you were catsitting for Milo. That's how I recognized your name.
This board is truly amazing to come to the help to those in need. I did not realize Milo was deaf.
You are terrific for taking care of him too!!
 
Wow! What news. I'm glad I visited. And so glad to hear that you were able to help out Milo. I know jm was so upset and unsure what to do. So cool that you could help.

But wow! 30 units...... :o
 
But Leo Looks SOOOO Good!! Happy to see you here--Milo is adorable, but no doubt a hand ful from your
That's how Moonie used to be when I was UG testing & she would literally kill me before I could shoot, biting kicking & screaming( also hiding in some very strange places :mrgreen: --Great to see you-Happy Caturday & Oldtimers day!! :mrgreen:
 
Awww, look at those sweet fluffy kitties. I love how Leo needs to be touching you, I guess he needs that connection and knows how much you love him. I hope your bones don't really creak when you get on the floor, hee, hee!

I'm in cute overload now after seeing those floofy fluffy kitties. I need to go hug my kitty now or my head will s'plode. :-D
 
I like this update (-the vomit).

I'm glad that Leo is feeling better. :)

Thank you for taking in Milo while bean was on vacation. I'm sure it is a great relief to be leave her kitty with someone who knows what to do. :D
 
Wow! Nice pics!
Sorry about the pukus... that's never pleasant.
I thought for sure you were going to invite Ronnie over to your house for a week or so... :lol:
 
Leo is looking sooo dapper! Thanks for posting the pic of the two boys. Milo is one cutie patootie, also!
