Woofie Wednesday

Maverick has one ear up, Macey's ears are up or down

My co-worker's new puppies are the CUTEST!  Even though I had her convinced that it was time for CATS, her husband went out and found these two babies instead.  I LURV German Shepherds, and am enjoying watched these two grow via photos.  Hope to meet them someday in purrson...er, um...pawson?

And thank you all for the well-wishes.  36 years is a really long time, but I'm not that old...must be some fuzzy math involved!  Chucky perked up again; he greeted me this morning, meowing for brekkie, and my heart truly leaped with the joy of it!  If we can keep him eating, then we can keep him here on Earth for that much longer.  No food interests him when he's in that stage; trust me, we've tried everything.  The Hubby says patience and love are the key, and I agree with him.

Up Chuck

Chucky is chillaxin'
Chuck sprawled out

"Oooh, that woman and her stoopy camera!"
Weird how his eyes have a green cast in the photo
Thank you all for the kind comments for Chuck!

Since he received the Lasix shot and some more Lasix pills daily, The Hubby and I both have noticed that Chuck is livelier and back to his usual outgoing self.  He lost some weight too, which means that the fluid build-up in his body has decreased.  The vet agreed to allow us to wait for two weeks for Chuck to return to the office for a blood draw; seems that Lasix can mess with his kidneys and his potassium levels.

Guess we are just going to keep adjusting meds, and checking his levels of all kinds of things for the rest of his life. Chucky KNOWS that we are helping him as best we can.  He gets everything he wants, such as a third meal in the afternoon (Angel too, of course...), and sprinkles on top whenever they ask (nutritional yeast).

On top of their food!  Although, when I have a pinch of sprinkles between my thumb and finger, sometimes a cat moves in the way, and get some sprinkles on their fur!  They never seem to notice, and I won't say a word...😉
