    Prayers going out for Ruffles. I'm giving Mishi appetite stimulants and they're helping a lot. Give it a try.

    Hopping on the sink for water is always a good sign. My Mishi is back to insisting on the bathtub faucet being for him only. In fact, he's started protesting when I use the shower - meowing at me to get out so he can use HIS shower. I know he's on the mend, finally, and I hope your Ruffles continue to improve too.

    Just keep the faucet running and the food coming! Let's hope she is on the way to recovery now.

    Good report!

    Yesterday - Friday, Ruffles returned to the vet for her blood work. She has gained half a pound during the week. The vet agreed to try an appetite stimulant for a week. She gets half a pill twice per day, about half an hour before feeding.

    Last evening was the first one. Ruffles spends the night in a room by herself with lots of food out. SHE ATE! In one night she ate more than she's been eating in 3 days! So that is good.

    Just got the phone call from the vet, blood work looks excellent! The white cell count came down a lot, so we will continue the Baytril another 7 days to keep fighting whatever it is. Thyroid test was fine so we continue at the same dose.

    Thanks everyone for you kind thoughts and prayers!
