The topic: Mickey update

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

He wasn’t doing well last week.  He’s had a runny nose, but I figured it was just something seasonal. Then there was some green snot one morning. Not a lot.  So, I still didn’t think too much of it.  Then I had him in the bathroom eating with Ollie and Benny.  Some kitty peed against the door and it was pinkish.  So, some kitty has a bladder infection. 

I was pretty sure it wasn’t Ollie, ‘cause he’d peed not long before. And I didn’t think it was Benny.  Because Benny doesn’t pee on the floor. I didn’t think Mickey did, either, but Mickey is the one with the worse kidney problem.  So, I started Mickey on amoxi.  I weighed him and was alarmed to see he’s lost a pound since he was diagnosed.  Okay, sure, he’s been off of his feed, but still, it’s scary to see that he’s lost that much.

So, last week, I started him on fluids every other day.  He’s getting his Lotensin as he’s supposed to (I have to put it in a gel cap, else it sticks in his throat) and I’ll sit with him on the sofa while he eats and keep the other cats away. 

This afternoon, for the first time since he was diagnosed with CRF, I saw him eating kibble from a feeder!  And I weighed him about fifteen minutes ago and he’s four ounces short of gaining back the weight he lost. 

I think we’re on the right track.
