What a relief!

My blood work came back normal, so the vet does think I had some bacterial overgrowth or IBD. Mom picked me up some yogurt, so as soon as I'm off the icky Flagyl, she help get my system back to normal with good bacteria.

So far I'm tolerating the Flagyl well, Daddy gives me the pills and then chases it down with 5 ml of water. I'm not loving those ear drops though... grrrr.. hiss!

Mom took me to the vet today to have them do my blood work and check me over. I had a little diarrhea a few weeks ago, and I've been playing with my ears a little too much lately. This morning as Mom was putting me in the carrier, she noticed that I had a little diarrhea again. I hate those baby wipes *sigh*

My activity level is normal... IndyCat 500 normal *giggles* I threw up a hairball earlier in the week, and felt better afterwards. But Mom didn't like the combination of events, so she carted me to Mr. Vet. He looked me over, did a fecal exam and pulled blood work.

We won't have the results of the blood work until tomorrow or at the latest on Monday. However, he did find some red blood cells present in my fecal smear. He didn't find any parasites, so that's good. He was thinking I might have IBD, in combination with allergies. Mom found that I have a reaction to anything corn based, so she's been careful on what she gives me.. either canned or dry.

He also did a test on my ears, as I had more wax in them than normal. I do have an ear infection, mostly likely due to my allergies from a few weeks ago. He sent me home with some ear drops and some Flagyl for my tummy. *crosses paw that clears everything up*

Other than that, everything "felt" good and sounded good. Strong heart, good sounding lungs.. etc. So we're just waiting for the results. Hopefully, everything comes back normal.

Until later..

We were hoping Pixel finally got rid of her horrible bout of diarrhea from two years ago after changing her diet and getting her system back to normal. Last night, Pixel start having bad gas again and woke up this morning with diarrhea. We're going to change her diet to something bland for a few days - boiled chicken and rice, with a little pumpkin for fiber. See it slowly switching her back to the normal food w/ probiotics helps. We'll keep an eye on her for the next 24-48 hour to see if everything improves.

My Big Sister, Cally

Hey All Kitties! Please keep my big sister, Cally in your purrs. She's been battling that seizure beast, or so we think that's the creature's name. She's been having some issues, and is slowly regaining the use of her tail. If you're interested, Mommy wrote a blog entry about it on Cally's page for her.

*motorboating purrs for Cally*

I was shocked to find out I was a finalisting in the contest. I want to congratulate all the finalists in the contest and thank everyone who voted for me to get into the finalist catergory. I want to wish the best of luck to all the finalists who are in the Best in Show catergory too.

Also, I wanted to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving! It's really important to take time out to thank everykitty for being part of our lives. It's been a tramatic year with many losses in the Catster community due to toxic foods and health complications. I want to let everykitty know that they are special to me and I wish them a healthy and happy furlife.

Nah.. Not really, I'm just kidding! But my new photo does look like a vampire kitty! *giggles* Mom gave me a bath earlier in the week and that photo is my response to the hair dryer being turned on. I hissed and growled and yowled at it until it went back into the cabinet. Apparently, Mom thought it was scary yet soooo cute, so she took a picture of me! *rolling eyes* Oh cod.. when will that woman ever learn that I hate baths, hair dryers and wet kitten pictures?

Til next time,

Not A Pillow

As you know, I've been sleeping in my humans bed since the weather changed. It's been a bit nippy in the house, so I need extra warmth. Well, last night during one of my "snuggling sessions", I slept on Mom's pillow. At some point in the night, she decided that I made a comfy pillow. Uh? I'm not a pillow.. I'm a cat. Mom said that she likes the new motor that got installed in her pillow, it has a gentle purring sound that keeps her asleep. *giggle*

 

Cats migrate during the winter. Really, it's true!

Cats migrate during the winter... Really, it's true! Okay, a small grain of truth.

During the summer, it's way too warm to snuggle with the humans so I often prefer (like other cats) to sleep alone in my cat bed. Recently, a cold front blew though Texas, dropping the temperatures into the 50's during the night and my little furry body can't take that much of a drop in temperature.

So what is a cat to do? Solution - Migrate from the cat bed into the humans bed! Mom kept waking up to find me curled up next to her head, or her neck or her side. At one point in the night, it got cold enough that those places weren't keeping me warm. So I nosed my way under the covers and inside my humans shirt to take advantage of her body heat. When humans sleep, their temperatures increase by 1-2 degrees. I poked my little nose and paws out of the collar of her shirt. I positioned my body just purrfectly so that my paws could be tucked behind her neck and take advantage of the little pocket of warmth. Mom woke up and realized that I was so cold that I crawled into her shirt. She thought it was the cutest thing and felt sorry for me. She cuddled with me for an additional 30 mins and then let me snuggle with Dad for 15 more minutes.

I like it when the weather gets colder.. I get more snuggle time with the humans.

purrs & tailhugs,
