Kiri's latest vet check--update post #120.

I'm so glad to hear that Kiri is now home and eating. I hope that she'll cooperate and let you give her the sub-q fluids. When I had to do it for my RB Pepper and Storm, I did it in my bathroom and closed the door so they couldn't run away. Good luck.

So glad she's feeling better. I did subq fluids for my RB girl Quasar. I was so worried about it but she always took it with no problems.

I think for cats that subq is a lot easier to deal with than pills.

Kiri's not eating as much as I would like--on top of everything else, the poor girl has a bad tooth, and I think it's bothering her a lot. But she is eating a little bit at a time, several times a day. And I was able to get the subQ fluids into her this morning. She didn't like it much, but we managed.

And she's getting restless enough to be a bit nawtee! I had to block off access to the electrical cords under my computer desk because she wanted to mess with them (not something she's done before)! I think she wants to get out of here and find one of her favorite spots elsewhere in the house, but she needs to stay in confinement for awhile.

"nawtee" is a very good sign!

I hope she improves to where she can get that tooth taken care of. Will it have to be extracted?

HUGS to that precious girl.

MORE PT PRAYERS FOR KIRI!

(they always seem to do something for her...hmmm)

The vet thinks that the tooth will be pretty easy to get out of there, but it may take some anesthesia--so we have to wait until she's stronger.

And yes, PT prayers and healing energy do indeed work wonders!

Such a difference from a week ago! Kiri is nosing around the room, yowling to get out of the room, giving me headbumpies (and wiping her snotty little nose on my sleeve), and best of all . . .



She's starting to eat and drink without being coaxed/coerced to do so!

We still don't know what's really wrong with her, but it finally feels like she wants to fight back.

Millions of thanks to everyone who has been pulling for and praying for Kiri. We appreciate it so very much!

Oh Kiri, keep eating! You can do this, sweetie!
That is just amazing after being forced to eat for so long!
