Bad kitty mommy

ByKim (Ceffyl)

I am a bad kitty mommy. I let Kiesha’s meds run out over the weekend and she was off of them for three days. I picked up her methimazole for her hyperthyroid disease yesterday along with some of her favorite kitty food (Merrick’s Grammys Pot Pie and Thanksgiving Dinner). Kiesha had her first dose on yesterday evening blended in with the juice from the kitty food. She scarfed the juice. Drank every last drop, and then promptly threw it up about 20 minutes later.

This morning she repeated the process. That’s two doses, partially taken, with food she’s been on for years. I don’t know if it’s the food or the meds upsetting her stomach… I’ll give it a few more days and then call the vet.

    If you havne’t seen this YouTube video, it’s hysterical. Watch the antics of a mean kitty while his human sings about how mean the kitty Sparta is (not really mean, just wants attention). Very cute. Stella play-bites when she is very excited. She has never broken skin but she will nip. She loves to rough-house…

    Basette spent the day at the vet’s for monitoring. We’d hoped that she would continue to improve Wednesday after bouncing back so thoroughly on Tuesday. The vet called me this morning. In a long voicemail message, she said that Basette looked worse: lethargic, not interested in eating/drinking, didn’t want to walk around, and generally feeling…

    Finally. Stella had her fluids on Friday and then didn’t eat much… but today she started eating again. (Yay!) A friend of mine at Phydeaux pet store suggested a trial size of Call of the Wild no-grain cat food. Stella’s pickiness has rubbed off on Ambush. For the first time ever, Ambush is refusing to…

    It’s funny how much you miss cats purring in the morning until you don’t have both of them in the room with you. Brie Brie, my Maine Coon cross kitty, was downstairs staring out the sliding glass doors when the neighbor’s cat walked up and sat about a foot from the door. Brie Brie didn’t…

    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 is certainly possible that Basette’s responsiveness last night was from a cleared up infection that didn’t show up on the UTI tests. I hope so! Basette’s glucose was above 500 again this morning, so she’s going to try her on the bovine insulin (PZI) again. Another update! Vet just called and said that Basette…
