Yesterday
So yesterday afternoon the lady and man captured me and put me in the PTU for a re-check at the vets office.

"This is the only pic of me at the vets office. When the lady broke out the flashy box while waiting for the Doc, the man covered his face with his hand and said something about it embarrassing him...haha!"

The weekend was fast approaching and although my appetite was great and I was no longer vomiting, I had become a bit dehydrated and was unable to go #2 in the litter box. So I was given flooids! I was not happy at all!!
Now I have a rather large camel hump on my back and the flooids are dribbling out a little. I was also give a stool softener to help things move along and they are cutting back on my predisolone to once per day. I heard them say something about an enema(!) on Monday if no improvement?! So the flooids and docusate better start working!
While we were out the lady went to the store and stocked up on our stinky goodness......this outta hold us for about a week.

Here Comes The Weekend

Well, the weekend is almost here. That means the lady will finally have time to do the laundry.......and I'm gonna lose my comfy bed!

**Cal is doing great, eating a lot and no vomiting! In fact, he is eating so much, the lady says he is about to eat us out of house and home......whatever that means! She has to go after work today and stock up on some more stinky goodness for him. She believes the raging appetite is from the predisolone. She also says that he pees a flood!**

Sweet Emotion
We are very happy to announce that Cal ate almost an entire 3.5 oz can of stinky goodness yesterday and kept it all down! Medicines too! His appetite seems to have improved greatly and he is not as finicky as he has been. The lady has a stockpile of a variety of canned foods because Cal would eat it one day and try to cover it the next. She has found one that he really enjoys! Yay! The lady is very happy because today she has to call the new vet with an update and she can give Dr. D a good report!
Thanks to all for the wonderful suggestions. The lady tried baby food early on and he wouldn't eat it, but he wouldn't eat anything at that point, just didn't have an appetite. Maya and Chevelle were given A/D as babies. They were very sick and unweaned when the lady and man found them and had to be nursed to health. When they were able to eat solid food, A/D was their diet for a quite a while and it is fabulous. You have all been so wonderful and caring and we love you all!!
Thanks to Shadow, Molly, and Their Beans for their prayer vigil to those who need healing.
The beautiful and super-floofy, Siena, gave us two awards.......they have really brightened all of our moods, especially Cal!

Since we have already received this great award, we want to pass it along to everybody!!

We would like to pass this wonderful award on to:
Forty Paws
They have a big family like us, and Bow has IBD.....I think we can learn a lot from him!
Jasper McKitten-Cat
They also have a Maggie in their family.
Thoughts Fur Paws
Our very nice new friends.
Thanks, Siena!!!!!

One last announcement........Snoopy (foster), the ballerina, won first place in Funny Picture Friday, hosted by Cats In Maryland, Niko and Cloud.
Thanks so much guys, we don't know how you could choose, they were all such great entries!!
Thanks, Niko and Cloud!

What's Going On
Update on me, Cal
I still had a pretty rough weekend, even with the medications. It may be because they haven't had time to work to their full effect yet, or because I vomit them up before they can even begin working. My vet said the predisolone could take a little time to calm the inflammation in my abdomen. Saturday lunch was the first meal I was able to keep down. However, I didn't keep my supper down that night, or my breakfast the next morning.The lady had leaky eyes for most of the day yesterday because she feels very helpless (not in control) in this situation and there is nothing she can do to soothe my poor tummy. I gave her lots of headbutts to let her know she is doing everything right. She, in return, gave me lots of scritches. She and I spent a little time on the back porch yesterday afternoon. I love to be outside and it really seemed to perk up my mood. She even put my food out there , but I wasn't ready to eat just yet.
When I do decide to eat it is not much at all, only about a teaspoons worth of food. She brought home a canned food that I really enjoy, (at the moment) it smells just like a turkey dinner! I had breakfast this morning and took my meds (yuck.) Hopefully I will keep them down and not give her any surprises to clean up when she gets home for lunch.
The lady is supposed to call my nice new vet tomorrow with an update on me, I hope she is able to give a good report cause if not, it's back to the vet for x-rays. Please purr for me so I don't have to go back!! And thanks so much for all the kind words, purrs, and purrayers so far. You guys are the best!!! Not only do the kind words help to perk up my mood, but they are comforting to the lady and man as well!
