Stella over the weekend

My youngest sister watched my kitties over the weekend. She was great: regular visits and pettings for the kitties. Stella didn’t eat her wet food at all. She also didn’t touch one of the places where I put out dry food in the kitchen. My sister was pretty worried about Stella.

Tonight I gave Stella some different wet food — and she has been eating it all night off an on. I also found out that she did eat all of the dry food I had put out in a second location by Kiesha’s crate. Stella will often eat there instead of coming into the kitchen. I had filled it up just in case — and she ate all of it. So she did get some food.

She still looked so thin this evening. Poor kitten.

Kiesha also didn’t eat. That was a surprise. Her dry food was untouched and she didn’t eat the wet food either. Very strange because Kiesha normally eats anything you give her. (Missing a meal or two won’t hurt the little butterball.)

I guess they eat better when I’m here.

    I have been very lucky for the past few months. While Isis has been having trouble this year, the kitties have been healthy this fall and winter. Stella has been doing very well, even though I have not been good about getting to the vet for her fluids. Ambush still seems to be doing well…

    It’s been a little while since I posted about Stella and Kiesha. Stella has been on meds to control high phosphourous levels in her blood. It’s made a huge difference: Stella is eating!

  • Stella Update

    I took Stella and Kiesha to the vet this morning; shots and some blood work for Stella. More as a precautionary measure than anything else. She is old enough that a minor panel would help us keep an eye on what is going on with her. Over the past few months she has definitely started…

  • Stella. Again. Sigh.

    Last night, Stella did not look good. When we were going to bed, she tried to stand up to position her self next to me. Her rear end didn’t cooperate and she flopped over. She hadn’t eaten much that night and it was definitely showing. Poor kitten. The vet said that ideally Stella should be…
