Stella’s vet appointment

Stella got fluids today — and had some good news! She lost a few ounces last week. Today she was back up to 5 pounds. It’s a gain of one or two ounces, but that’s a lot for a little cat.

Stella has been surprisingly good for her fluids. She knows we’re trying to help her. She isn’t happy about it, but she doesn’t fight when she has fluids either. She plays like a kitten the evening after she has her fluids.

She definitely seems to be feeling better today. I’m not sure why she didn’t feel well over the weekend.
