Fister in hospital

[lynnestankard]

Sorry Randi - only just read this post and I'm so sorry Fister isn't at home with you - but having to spend the weekend in hospital.
Poor furbaby and his Mummy and Daddy too. I bet he's doing a lot of sleeping and getting his strength back.
Fingers crossed here - and if Dan's anything to go by (lying on my arm) eye's are crossed too!
Let us know how he is tomorrow won't you?

GREAT NEWS RANDI!!! Fister is coming home, yippeee!!!!

Awww poor golden Fister boy! and so glad it is better and he is home. It's so upsetting to see our little fur family not feeling up to par, and even worse when we are separated fromthem...

Hope he will be his marvelous self soon. Ritzy had a UTi once and cried so hard when she had to go...the round of medication and diet change seemed to do the trick -- nothing since and it was over a year ago.

I've been at the ocean for a few days, and just caught up with this thread. How is Fister doing? I hope he is back to 'his' spot on the bed.

Fister, John and I are overwhelmed with your sweet responses. It really helped us a lot!
The embattled warrior came back from his joust with the vets around 5 o'clock yesterday. When he jumped out of the box, he rushed immediately under the bed (his safe spot) but came out 5 minutes later and went round to check all his special places in the flat. Then into the litter box to pee a little - he was in and out of there 3-4 times in the first hour. Then he had to sit in the windowsill and see if the street looked the same and then in the kitchen window to see if there were any cats in the yard. Only 2 hours later, he wanted to go out, but NO WAY! Part of his tummy has been shaved and he had a bandage (plaster) around one leg. That we could take off, no problem.

He is going to have some medicine for 10 days, antibiotica (Synulox) and Prednisolon. We took a few pics of him we'll post here later.
Last night, he looked so happy to be back, he came up in our bed and just could't get enough cuddles - by now, I think he has had one from all of you!! Since then, he’s done practically nothing but lie in our (his!) bed and sleep and look very happy. He seems pretty exhausted by it all. Two days in a prisoner of war camp with a tube up your sensitive bits is definately no fun!

I was worried about his reaction to giving him the pills (Synulox), but this morning, it was no problem. I did it while he was laying in between our pillows, and luckily he seems to like those.

He has to have the diet food Precription s/d and nothing else, but that’s what he was already eating. I’ve been thinking about boiling the water we give him, I don’t know if there’s too much calcium in it, but I’ll have a chat about it with our vet.

Thanks again for your very sweet posts!
