    Mobius (again)

    Mobius went back for a checkup and the infection flared up again. The vet put her on liquid Baytril, which she doesn't tolerate. I'm not sure if it's because it's so bitter and activating her gag reflex, or if it's a true intolerance. I'm going to get some of the dreaded pills and try those.

    Here's a pic of Moby after her sir jury. The pink bandage on her left leg did not last 24 hours.

    Praying for a speedy recovery Mobius.
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    Update (good news!)

    Moby has had two doses of Baytril, half a pill each, embedded in kitty treats. I "primed" her by feeding her some tuna treats, to first see if she'd like them. Then a little while later, I stuffed the half a pill into one. Treats used to be softer and easier to form around pills when Smokey the Elder was still alive!

    Anyway, the intolerance was because of the flavor of the emulsion, I think. Nasty pink stuff.

    I hope Moby continues to take her pills so she can get well again! I don't blame her for removing that bright pink bandage. It clashed with her beautiful outfit.

    Other things you can put pills in: small pieces of cheese, a little liver pate. We even made slots in pieces of wet cat food and hid pills in there.

    I have said before that Whiskas should make extra delicious treats you can open and close for putting pills in them

    Hope Moby is ok soon
