Here's hoping Dusty takes her meds more willingly. She's a pretty little gal; doesn't look a day over 10

It's great that she got a chance to visit the campground. It sounds like she enjoys being there.

I am so sorry to hear that your precious Dusty's health is declining.

She is such a beautiful girl and those pictures of her are just too darn adorable.

Prayers on the way for Dusty and major {{{{{{HUGS}}}}}} for you.

I know that whatever time she has left with you, will be full of love and contentment.

Dusty refused to keep her pain meds down today. I got it in her first try but about 10 seconds later I could see she was "thinking" too hard about it and yup, you guessed it, all her food and her pill came out. *sigh* Dusty is too smart for her own good, always has been. I'm going to try again in a bit here and she needs her lasix shot also. Poor thing, I don't know if she realizes I'm not trying to stress her out on purpose I'm trying to help her. I will say this is the longest I've ever been able to get pills in her (going on 3 months now semi regularly), in the past it was 3 days tops! Her old vet even tried a pill shooter, 3 techs and still couldn't pill her, they finally called me to come in to do it because Dusty kept holding her breath till she'd turn blue and pass out just so she didn't have to take pills, I got them in her first try. Her current vet (my boss) says he's never ever seen a cat that bad about oral medication but so coopertive about injections. lol
