Taz's vet visit *update #8*

[Taz_Zoee]

You are so right Denise. We did his second treatment last night and I was MUCH calmer. He did try to get up a couple of times, but that just tells me he has the energy to do so and that's awesome!!
He seems much perkier since we've been giving him fluids. In fact this morning he was "yelling" at me to give him some tuna. I have been giving him a teeny bit of tuna after I give him meds.
He is not hiding as much and last night he was on the back of the recliner. I hadn't seen him there in a couple of weeks.

I know he can't live forever, but at least I know he is feeling better for as long as he is with me.

I just haven't been able to make myself post here about Taz. He is one of my favorite kitties here at PT. Last week I couldn't even read this thread, or the one about Sydney either. I couldn't take the sad news. This illness of his really makes me sad, but I am SO glad to hear of the improvements he is making with the fluids. I sure hope that he continues doing well. As always, keep us posted and please give him some special attention from me.

Awww, Moesha, thank you so much. I will happily deliver special kisses and scritches to Taz tonight.

I'm so glad to hear that his sub-q treatments are going well and that he's feeling better. I hope that he'll continue to do well and maybe even start gaining some weight.

I know I sound like a broken record because I've posted this several times but you may want to ask your vet about giving him some vitamin B-12 shots. They're supposed to help with appetite and they also seem to increase energry levels too. This has helped Ziggy a lot and Starr in the past too.

Tracey, I completely forgot to post this. I thought of it and then forgot when I was on. Thank you for reminding me. They actually added B-12 to his fluids. So we are good!!

We're all on the same page because I realized that I had forgotten to mention this. I did this for Puddy and now for Pidge and it keeps them from having to get poked w/a needle again. Great!
