This is so wonderful!! Excellent news. And I'm sure the vet just didn't want to raise your hopes too high and also cover his own rear. So just don't think about that right now and enjoy your little girl while she is in such a good place. :D
True, no singing this time. I turned the radio on for her but it didn't help. Candace (Catty1) sent me one of her CD's for Miss Pidge but the mail didn't arrive until after our vet visit. It sure would've come in handy on the ride to the clinic. Oh well, we'll save it for next time. Thank you, Candace. We'll listen to it this evening. :)Quote:

I'm just a tad nervous about Pidge. Dr. Lee was pleased that she had gained weight but now I can tell that she's losing. I don't even have to pick her up to tell; I can see it. He did say that cats tend to lose weight on the meds that she's taking but she's been awfully lethargic all day. She didn't come downstairs to eat breakfast w/the rest of the Fur Posse; I had to carry her downstairs. After eating, she went back upstairs and she's stayed there all day. Will you please remember my sweet Pidge in your prayers?
Are you going to call Dr Lee if she doesn't perk up some by tomorrow? Come on Pidge - quit scaring Mom!
Absolutely. Puddy went w/in an hour and I don't want to take any chances w/Pidge. Of course, it's a weekend w/an upcoming holiday. :(Quote:

Hugs to you, Mary. I hope it's just because of the meds, and that she'll be ok.
Guess who just came downstairs? I'll tell ya, sometimes I don't know if I'm walkin' or ridin' a horse. I was so pleased to see her that I gave her a few of her fav treats: Whisker Lickin's Tender Moments. She loves those things!
Aww! Glad she came downstairs!:love:
I wonder if one of her meds could be tweaked? OR - could she get sub qs on a very limited basis, smaller amounts? See what Dr Lee says.
HUGS to dear Pidgelet!
C'mon Pidge! You and Mitzi must be in cahoots! Although I know Mitzi won't share her Fancy Feast or Temptations treats :D You two have got to eat!
Dr. Lee already said 'no subQ's'. He's already tweaked her meds, too, so I'm hoping she's just having an off day. She hopped up on the back of the sofa and essentially nudged Yodie off. Yodie walked away w/airplane ears. LOLQuote:

Well, it's nice to hear she's being a stinker. That's a good sign. :D
Maybe she did just have an off day. I know I'm having one today.
Hope you are feeling better Pidge. And please eat so you won't lose more weight.
She did eat, she just didn't come downstairs on her own as she's been doing. Sorry if I was unclear about that. :)Quote:

I sure hope that's all it is. W/Thanksgiving in a few days and my son coming home early Tuesday morning, I sure would like a week w/out drama, not to mention that I just don't want my little girl to be sick.Quote:

I suppose there is not much to be done about that though. Do you think Dr. Lee would allow you to give her NutriCal? It is a paste that has 2,500 calories (I think) per dose and comes in a tube like hairball remedy and is of the same consistency. I've used it on one of my cats and they all gather around trying to get some so I think it's proably tasty too.
Prayers that she stops losing and at least maintains the weight she has. :)
Do I need to get it from a vet or can I buy it at Pet Supplies Plus?Quote:

Pidge, honey ... prayers for you and your mom
I will continue to be thinking about Pidge during her ups and downs.
