    Well, well, well. It's just about the end of Week 3. The collars were supposed to start showing results this week.

    Things are MUCH better. Zoe, Oscar AND Cole all sleep in my bedroom. Zoe is atop the cat post looking out the window or on her special 'mat'. Oscar and Cole are on the bed. When I am in bed Zoe and Oscar are on the bed at the same time - in different spots of course! It is SO nice to have Cole back on the bed; he was so scared for quite some time. I started grooming him often again, and rubbing his tummy. It's so nice to hear him purring and coming for head and neck scritchies again!

    Of course, there is a session of hissing every so often, but NOTHING like the banshee flip-outs that were happening before.

    On the 19th I am to call the vet. Zoe will be having her calcium level rechecked and we will likely transition to the Feliway collars. That is, I buy the Feliway and collars and dose them twice a day.

    The Dental food has really reduced a lot of the tartar Zoe had on her back upper molars! My vet suggested this to see if we could avoid the cost of a dental cleaning. So far, so good!

    Things are good now. On to the collars!

    Thanks for all the good wishes.

    Oh. what a lot of wonderful good news! Happy dances here!

    May all go well with the vet next week, and may the Feliway collars really do the trick.

    Zoe and Oscar have graduated to fabric cat collars with Feliway squirted into them twice a day. Little wriggly Zoe is hard to dose in the evenings, but I'm 1 for 2 so far.

    Her calcium levels were redone one month later. I can't recall the normal level - let's say it's 2.5. The vet left a message saying it's 2.6 - and that is down from 3.25!

    He said that since she is doing well in all other areas that this is fine, but I can call if I have any questions.

    So all is well...just need to see how the actual Feliway dose affects Zoe in the next week or two.

    Thanks for all your good thoughts and prayers. I am forwarding them to Merlin and Sparkler.
