    True, no singing this time. I turned the radio on for her but it didn't help. Candace (Catty1) sent me one of her CD's for Miss Pidge but the mail didn't arrive until after our vet visit. It sure would've come in handy on the ride to the clinic. Oh well, we'll save it for next time. Thank you, Candace. We'll listen to it this evening.
    Blessings,

    Wonderful news about the Pidgie-girl! Every moment is precious, isn't it.

    I'm just a tad nervous about Pidge. Dr. Lee was pleased that she had gained weight but now I can tell that she's losing. I don't even have to pick her up to tell; I can see it. He did say that cats tend to lose weight on the meds that she's taking but she's been awfully lethargic all day. She didn't come downstairs to eat breakfast w/the rest of the Fur Posse; I had to carry her downstairs. After eating, she went back upstairs and she's stayed there all day. Will you please remember my sweet Pidge in your prayers?
    Blessings,
    Mary

    Are you going to call Dr Lee if she doesn't perk up some by tomorrow? Come on Pidge - quit scaring Mom!

    Absolutely. Puddy went w/in an hour and I don't want to take any chances w/Pidge. Of course, it's a weekend w/an upcoming holiday.
    Blessings,

    But of course. Just an ordinary day would make matters too simple!

    Pidgie Pie, you need to eat sweet girl. Please do so. You make you mom and the rest of us nervous when you don't.

    Hugs to you, Mary. I hope it's just because of the meds, and that she'll be ok.

    Guess who just came downstairs? I'll tell ya, sometimes I don't know if I'm walkin' or ridin' a horse. I was so pleased to see her that I gave her a few of her fav treats: Whisker Lickin's Tender Moments. She loves those things!
    Blessings,
    Mary

    Aww! Glad she came downstairs!

    I wonder if one of her meds could be tweaked? OR - could she get sub qs on a very limited basis, smaller amounts? See what Dr Lee says.

    HUGS to dear Pidgelet!

    Dr. Lee already said 'no subQ's'. He's already tweaked her meds, too, so I'm hoping she's just having an off day. She hopped up on the back of the sofa and essentially nudged Yodie off. Yodie walked away w/airplane ears. LOL
    Blessings,
    Mary
