I bet it has been a rough time for Tiger and for you too.I so hope he'll be feeling better in a few days and you are able to post a positive update. Keep him comfy and give him lots of kisses. I'll be sending lots of good thoughts.

I am glad you're both home and safe. I'm glad that you and Tiger will get to spend quality time together until his time comes. You two are very lucky to have eachother
Hugs to both of you.
Sweet Tiger has sure been through it and so have you but, as you say, you may have more time w/him now, thanx to the surgery. We will all see Tiger well and keep our spirits high for him and for you. Lots of (((HUGS))) headed your way and gentle pets for Tiger.....
Blessings,

Glad to hear Tiger is home and I hope he will be feeling better soon. Prayers and positive thoughts continuing.
Thanks for all the positive thoughts and affirmations! I believe they will help. I don't want to view any of this as sad because this really is a second chance to spend time with him and I am so grateful.
He is much perkier this morning and went ballistic on the cat tree as soon as he woke up so that was great to see! He had a big breakfast of canned salmon and asked for seconds which I gave him.
The drooling has stopped and the coughing spells seemed to have stopped as well. He is still mr. wobbly legs but it usually takes him 2 or 3 days to recover from the ordeal of surgery.
He is on Prednisilone two times a day for inflammation that will tapered off after 3 days. Thankfully he eats that mixed into his food. I won't start the Transfer Factor for another day or so to make sure that he isn't gagging or coughing. The cream cheese can get a bit sticky in his throat and I don't want to add to that.
Candace, you mentioned some stinky cat salmon. That sounds like a good idea, do you know of a particular brand? I think Fancy Feast has a salmon that I could try and sneak some Transfer Factor into.
Here are two pics and one video that I took about an hour ago of Tiger laying in his donut bed on our deck. Paddy is with him and they seem pretty comfortable enjoying the morning sunshine.

Heck - just go to or call your pet stores and ask for the stinkiest salmon wet cat food they have! It's usually the cheapest. Grocery store brands are good for that too - like Friskies.
Not the best for 'health food', but if it will get more TF down him, that's the point.
I just hope the TF finally works...hopefully you can up his dosage for a while....

Well, Tiger looks great! You'd never know he's been through such an ordeal, the sweet boy!
