Last Saturday he was 13.5 lbs, but I think with all these fluids I'm pumping into him, he's gotta be up to 14 lbs by now! ;)

Work continues on the old jalopy. Got a few rumbles last night and thought the engine would start purring away, but not quite yet I guess. Oh, and the front bumper is still on back order too. ;) :D

Thanks everybody. He does look good, and I'm sure that's part of the reason the vet thought he was salvagable. Hopefully he'll continue looking good for a long long time. And once I buff up that paint job, he'll look better than new! :D

Well, we finally got the ol' jalopy's engine running this morning! Little bit of a rough start, but once it got going it just purred like a cat. ;) I think we may have gotten the exhaust unplugged, which prompted the engine to run. Makes sense because everyone knows an engine can't run if the exhaust is plugged. So all we're waiting for now is for the front bumper to come in. ;) Oh, and it appears the tires are rolling better now too since the exhaust was unplugged in the basement. So, things are moving along nicely. :D



(Interpretation for those who don't understand "car talk." Tubby purred for me this morning. I think he pooped yesterday which means things are finally starting to work the way they should - in & out. I think he's feeling even better now because it's starting to come out the other end instead of just going in. And the only thing I'm waiting for now is the head bumpies. And the tires rolling better means he's getting around better because he pooped in the downstairs litterbox instead of the one we have in the foyer. And yes, Phred, we're starting to think he's milking it because why did all the progress happen when we weren't home?)

:D :D :D

:D :D :D
Oh, Debbie I am so happy to hear such good news about your gorgeous Tubby man!! Sending lots of kisses and scritches for the dear boy and lots to share with beautiful Princess Peanut too.

This is VERY GOOD NEWS!!! :D

I'm so glad he's on the mend. I have to commend this little man...he just lies there for his fluids?? What a good boy!!

Yay, Tubby! You keep on getting better, sweet boy. :)

I'm glad you checked in Debbie and so happy to hear the news. Yes, Mr. Tubs could just be "milking it", smart guy. Why get up and move when Meowmie will pick me up and carry me. :rolleyes:
So glad the back end is working now. Nothing worse than plugged exhaust.

Smooches to you Tubby and kisses to you Peanut.

much love
Auntie Slick

I like the news and I like the way you write it! It gave me a good laugh and you wouldn't have written that style if he wasn't really feeling better:D

Scritchies to our black vintage Porsche;)
