Tortie Tuesday

Mom said I can just stop by today (I will visit some thru the day) as I have to prepare to go you-know-where. Mom will likely put my new soft PTU in the shower and close the curtain mostly in hopes I don't see it and when I least expect it..she'll stoop and swoop.

I have been getting the steroid gel for closer to 2 weeks than not. My Dr. called mom and said he wants to do a blood test to see if any of it is seeping into my system at all. Mom is concerned that it's not much as my appetite is fallen off again and I was supposed to have a good appetite as a side effect. Mom was hoping the vet was wrong when he said the gel wasn't recommended but as other kitties are using it..I thought it would work for me too.

I won't know till I go to there though and get the results of my test. I know now that mom and I failed to realize that the extra dinners and breakfasts were solely the result of my appetite pill. We hoped it was a combination of pill and gel. It was very wishful thinking. We just knew we were home free.

Just keeping you up to date.

Samson gets his steroids in pill form, but it definitely makes him eat. He is a hefty 18 pounds lately, so now we have to cut out the treats. We hope you will benefit the same way, Admiral!

Gigi said...

Hi sweetie pie, I'm going to teleport over there right now and squeeze into that PTU with you. I'll purr so much you won't even notice the v-e-t.

Don't worry. The Humans WILL figure out some way to get that medicine into you. They do have those big brains, you know. And thumbs.

XOXO

Star says, "I hope that the vet is wrong my precious and your blood work shows you don't have to have more appetite pills!! Do make your mom give you greenies for viciously forcing you to be stuck with needles!! I'm making mom give me lots and lots of greenies whenever she gives me my dropperfull of antibiotic & my eye drops. ::kitty kisses:: Let me know when you get back so I can wash the smell off of your furs!!"

Unfortunately the Vet has to help your Mom figure things out, so don't be too mad at her. Oh yea, eat lots as soon as you get back sweet Admiral!

Cat and DOG Chat With Caren said...

don't hide the PTU! Keep it out and try and remain calm...maybe put a few treats in it HOURS before you go anywhere. I leave Cody's out all the time and always left Bobo's out too. If you keep it out all the time they don't associate it with the vet as much. She will sense your tension if you are working hard at hiding it and all. Praying for a good outcome at the vet xoxo

Teri and her Stylish Adventure Cats said...

Oh, Ms TortieSpecialOne,

We knows how worried your mama is and she's tryin to be brave...tell her to put one paw in front of the other, and know she is doing all in her power to get you over this hump and on to more floofy times!

The Island Cats said...

Oh crud, Admiral! We're sorry you gotta go back to you know where. But we want you to feel better so it's a necessary evil (emphasis on evil). We hope all goes well.

Cathy Keisha said...

I hope all went well at V-E-T. Sending healing purrz out to you. xoxo

Lisa said...

Thinking about you.. Kitty has a sore eye and getting a gel in his eye twice a day.

Michiko Johnson said...

Oh Admiral! I don't know what say in here that I was so disappointed to hear that as sametime thinking of your mum too.
Well all hope you have a good news from your V-E-T.
