Thought I'd let you all know, Brodie has gone 4 days in a row without vomiting!!! Friday, Saturday, Sunday & Monday!!! If he doesn't today, it will be FIVE!
That is a RECORD for him, since he got out of the hospital! Up until now, the longest he's gone is two!
Fingers & Paws crossed!!!
:D :D :D :D :D
________________________________________________
edit: Looks like our "record" will stand at 12 days for now.
That is WONDERFUL news.You must be so happy and relieved.What a scare you went through.I'm glad he's feeling better :D
I am relieved but almost afraid that if I talk about it or say anything, he's going to hear me and PUKE! Me and hubby were whispering last night *four days!* so he wouldn't hear us, LOL . . . just so it wouldn't jinx his record! Even if he does throw up today, 4 days is a sign he's improving. The vet said it would take him 3-6 weeks . . . but we should see him vomiting less. So far, she's been right. :)
Thats terrific news,boths fingers and paws crossed here! :)
:::::whispering:::::
That is great news! I am glad that Brody is on his way to better health! Keep up the great job Brody. We are all pulling for ya little one! :)
WOOHOO! (not whispering! :D ) Go, Brodie!
Catty1
Scrappy and Zipper Angels have been visiting Brody to help thier Friend feel better and not lose his Dinner.
I think that they are sneaking him Kitty Bags from Our Lunches which is all right with us,as we all love Brody.
Yay!! Sure hope he makes it through day 5 without any problem!
Brilliant news!
If he would it would just be a coincidence, but he WON'T vomit because we all have our paws and fingers crossed for Brodie! ;)Quote:

I see you made a deal with the devil-
No vomiting in exchange for calls for James Ward. :eek: :rolleyes: ;)
Oh Christa this is such great news. I pray that precious Brody continues to do well.
YYYYAAAAYYYYYY Brody. Let's go for day 5 and then work on day 6. One day at a time little one, one day at a time. :)
I'm glad you are keeping us posted because I do think about Brodie and wonder how he is doing. Congratulations on the improvement and I hope it keeps up. It must be wonderful to see him enjoying his life vigorously again.
***Yesterday (Tuesday) made five days, vomit free!!!***
Now we're going for six! I can hardly believe it!
He's up to 16 pieces for breakfast first thing in the morning.
Then he gets 6 pieces every 3-4 hours. I tried feeding him snacks 2-3 hours but he didn't seem intersted. He does better in the 3-4 hour range.
At 9 p.m. he gets 1/3 of a can of wet food. I know that's not a lot but he was eating a lot less of that too! He was eating like 1/5 of the can at a time!
Then one more tiny snack of 5 pieces before we go to bed - usually around midnight - we go to bed late around here. :)
So far, so good. He has lost some weight but I guess that's to be expected since he went from pigging out to eating probably what a normal cat should. I think he's at about 11 pounds now. Hopefully he won't loose much more.
Thanks guys for your continued support. I will keep you updated as long as we keep this streak going! I'm just so excited!!! :D
YAY!!! That is great news!!!!! Make it SIX Brodie!!!!!

YAY!!!!!!
I had to check in for the Brodie Barf Free Day Count. ;)
YYYYYYYAAAAAAAYYYYYYYY BRODIE!!!!!!!!!!
I am so happy to hear that Brodie is continuing to do well.
I can just picture the big smile on your face Christa. :D
YIPPEEEEE for Brodie!!! Great news Christa!! I was so sorry to hear about him being sick. Poor little guy. :( It sounds like now he might need a happy face :D
Well guys . . . yesterday (Friday) made
EIGHT DAYS!!!
I'm just so excited!
Still not mentioning it around Brodie, afraid he'll get nervous about it, LOL . . . but I don't think he logs onto the internet much anymore. At least I don't think so.
I guess if he starts vomiting again, I'll know differently!
Fingers crossed! Today will make day nine!
We've still got one more snack to go but . . . if all goes as I think it will, today (Sunday) will make . . .
DAY 10!!!
Sorry . . . I'm a little excited. :)
And excited you should be Christa. :) This is such great news.
Brodie, you gave us all a scare for a while there buddy, but I'm so happy to hear that you are finally on the road to recovery.
Prayers that you continue to do so.
I haven't been able to get on PT the last few days because I've been so busy. This is wonderful news!!!:D
Hey guys! Yesterday (monday) made
11 Puke Free Days!!!
Wow, that seems like an eternity around here!
I'm starting to make some small changes, just to see what will happen. I just feel so sorry for the little guy. He seems to be starving. :( He wasn't begging when he was sick . . . he would hardly ever cry but lately he just walks around and cries & looks up at me and makes the most pitiful little cries.
Baby steps . . .
One thing I never mentioned was that I had been hand feeding him LOL his breakfast . . . hubby would :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: at me everytime, but really my logic was just to SLOW HIM DOWN! So I have started dumping his food back in his bowl. It was funny but at first, it was like he didn't know what to do! LOL
I've also quit counting out his food. :eek: Just eyeballing it. Not giving him nearly as much as Josie :eek: and keeping it to small portions like before, but I'm going to see if I can get away with doing it this way. I can pretty much tell how much food 20 pieces is by now, LOL . . .
We did this last night & this morning and . . .
So far, so good!
Oh yeah, one last thing, I've been letting him finish up Josie's *scraps* :D She can NEVER finish her food. She always leaves 3 or 4 pieces in her bowl. We always say it's because she's too lazy to fish them out and always before, I'd rush to get them out and toss them because I didn't want him overeatting. I've been letting him have them lately though, as long as it's not a whole bowl full.
Oh Christa! I am so happy for you and Brodie! You have been so patient through this whole ordeal!
Keep up the good work Brodie! We all are so happy to hear that you are doing so much better!
So happy to hear the great update!
