The topic: Slow going with Skipper

----------------------------------------------

It’s obvious he’s feeling way better, but his weight isn’t going up. I’ve been weighing him on a daily basis and I’m not happy with it.

So, this morning I opened up one of the gelcaps I’d put the l-Lysine in and popped in a quarter of a periactin. He had a little bit of “my tummy doesn’t feel good”, slept, ate, slept, ate, slept, ate, crashed on the bed for hours, then went outside and is now under a lounge chair by the pool, sleeping. 

The past couple of days he’s gotten his skinny ass back into the rafters, which I don’t like, and he’s slept up there, but today it was the bed, which I do like.

So, I think my protocal for the next week or so will be the appetite stimulant in the morning.  He did do well when I had him on that last month, I just didn’t want it to be long term, but I’d rather he be a little off after taking the pill in the morning and eating, than go anorexic.

Poor guy.
