    Willa's latest bloodwork from a week ago shows one of her kidney enzymes elevated. This is the first time in her 20 years. I knew before I saw the bloodwork, because she started drinking and peeing incredible amounts, and I mean of flood proportions.
    I'm not too upset about it, because most cats go into renal failure long before her age. All her meds are still working well.
    The other thing I noticed is what I believe to be kitty dementia. She will sit in front of a closed door and waiting for one of us to come out, even though we keep walking past her. She also wanders through the house aimlessly and keeps asking for food, even after just finishing a whole bowl. I think that's more than just her appetite stimulant working.
    Overall, I think she's doing well and she's as sweet as ever.

    "That's the power of kittens (and puppies too, of course): They can reduce us to quivering masses of Jell-O in about two seconds flat and make us like it. Good thing they don't have opposable thumbs or they'd surely have taken over the world by now." -- Paul Lukas

    "We consume our tomorrows fretting about our yesterdays." -- Persius, first century Roman poet

    Some from us, too!

    I meant," said Ipslore bitterly, "what is there in this world that truly makes living worthwhile?"
    Death thought about it.
    CATS, he said eventually. CATS ARE NICE.
