I missed this thread until today and now I'm so glad Tubby is feeling better. I hope he'll be 100% ok soon. Filou and Tigris are sending their best cat feelings.
and his wonderful tummy, too!Quote:

or as easily, as Phred made it sound.
Guess I have to practice the technique. ;)
Got a few "aaccckks" from the cat,
but ended up getting more water on him than in him.
Boots sez HI! ;)
Az fur the *looooong squirt*, yep! Boots wuz noted fur doin that, too! Seemed like wunce he got inna *mood* ta pee - he dumped da tank! He'd offin do it jest wunst a day... but we wurried he'd fill da box an drown! :eek:
We he furst started havin trouble doin hiz peez; he tried several tymez a day, lil bit now, lil bit latur. Doc figgered he had a URI an treated him wiff biotik pillz an a kuppla shotz... We went thru that twice over a few munthz...
Then he started strainin an *Grrrrrrin* an aktin unhappie inna sand box... Got the plastik pipe uppa thingie THREE tymes affore Doc sed we wuz fightin a loosin battle. Datz when Dad cided to go ahead wiffa Sir Jury job.
Az fur the Direct Inject Wadur Intake Enhancement Procedurez...
Dad summtymez furgetz ta mention allua *great ideaz* that turn out ta be a lil short onna *great* part... :rolleyes:
When Doc sed we gotta boost da Kat'z wadur intake ~
Dad tried givin wadur wiffa spoon!
Ho-Boy! Wuz THAT a surkis!!
Wadur, Wadur - EBERYwhere! (Cept inna Kat! :mad: )
We tried a Straw a few tymez... Fill da straw wiff wadur, put a finner ober the uppur end, insert lower end in Katz mouff, releese finner, watch wadur run - onna floor! Kuz da Kat took a powdur an runn'd off...
Doc Mike finally showed Dad da *Syringe* trick...
Small 1/4" by 2" plastic *ouwie* shootur wiffa *dart* thingy taken off. Suck uppa load a wadur; *grab* da Kat; an hold da hed wiffa thumb an furst finner pushin in on opposite sides of his mouff corners - jaw pops open ebery tyme! Big trick iz to push the syringe far enuff Down da Throat - GOTTA get over an past the Tongue Likker - then unload wiffa Quick Push onna plunger!
1) Gotta be abel to *ignore* the loud Gaaaakin Soundz da :mad: Kat makez...
2) Gotta hang on tite - Kat NOT a happie kampur durrin the procedure!
3) Aftur bout the third *shot* inna row; Kat so buzy swallerin he gibz up strugglin.
4) Affore we found the wadur flavur he *likes*, Kat wuz gettin 6-8 *shot* doses of wadur bout 6 or 8 tymez a day - :eek: - He wuz dribblin out wadur like a garden hoze!!
Aftur he cided he *likes* hiz wadur flavored wiff either chikun krunchies floatin in it; or Tuna Juze added; he'z doin a LOT better at drinkin wiffout gettin wadur *shot* downa hatch! :)
Mistur Tubbz ~
KEEP Drinkin an Peein - stop doin either wun an you'll get a fast trip to the White Coat Lab! :eek:
Debbie, I just now saw this thread. I'm so glad to here that Tubby is recoving so well and so fast too. :) I'm sure he'll be just fine. Prayers are on the way for a full and speedy recovery.
That's really quite all right, Tracey. Your attentions are much better spent on Pepper these days, poor boy, but thanks for thinking of Tubby too. :)Quote:

Since I know how everyone loves pictures, I really pestered Tubby today - and no, I didn't pictures of him in the litterbox. :p
So I gave him some Cat Sip with water added just to make him drink.

MMMM.....yummy, yummy Cat Sip.

Oh, oh, almost gone.

(check out that tongue!) :eek:
Ok, Mom, if you're not going to give me anymore, I'm going to take a nap now.

And of course we can't forget Peanut.

Great pics. :D I also took some pics of all 3 of my babies today too. They're on their new cat trees. I'll have to post this thread later today or tomorrow. Tubby looks very healthy and I hope he stays that way for a long time to come. :)
I'm so glad Tubby is feeling better! :) :) :)
Handsome, handsome Tubby boy--keep makin' marks in the box!
So happy Tubby is doing better!
Oh, so great to hear that Tubby is feeling better. Nice pics :)
I am so glad that Tubby is doing better :). The pictures are great, it is lovely to see Tubby drinking all the cat sip up, and the bonus pic of Peanut too!:)
