I have been telling myself all weekend, sit down and do a Joey update. Then I got busy again.:)
So I have finally gotten to it.
Well, Joey seems to be doing OK. She is eating and using the littler Box. Her stools are a little soft, but we no longer have any diarrhea. I think that this is great news. I started to mix in a little of her normal food tonight, so we will see how she reacts. The signs are all pointing to recovery. Yea!!!!:)
All of the above is the good news. Now the not so good news, she does however have a URI.:( The doctor has given her some antibiotics and I am hoping that will clear up this week. I would just like her to be well. I know that she will, it is just so sad to see her sneeze constantly. She is still better then last week.
Also, another bit of good news, Bob has stopped hissing at her. I even caught them sitting together for a short time.:D
I think that part of Bob's not hissing anymore is that he he had to go to the vet. That was an adventure all on it's own. Bob is usually fusses at the Vet. However the Tech an I can usually hold him and get te nails done. This time was different. First, he hissed at everyone at the vet and he never does that. Then we could not trim his nails by just holding him. Then we tried a towel, he was still too much. So we had to muzzle him and get another tech to help hold him. He has never been that bad before, I was so embaressed. They said that it was OK, and that it must have been the wether, because alot of animals had been acting strange that day. Right after that the Bob stopped hissing at Joey.
I also thought at first that we got the wrong kitty. She is actually sleeping with me on the bed. She has never done that before. She has come up on the bed, but has never setteled in to stay. Maybe some good will actually come from all of this.:) Hopefully this will continue.
So the news really is good, I am just hopeful that she will be over her URI by late this week.
Now onto some Pics:
The first one cute, but after I took it I looked at her fur. It is actually 3 colors. A dark layer next to her skin and then a brownish layer. then that multi speckled gray. I am sure that it is not that uncommon but I never noticed it and thought that it was neat.

Here is just a belly cleaning shot. I was hoping to catch a better shot of her shaved belly.
