On Her Way to Chubby

Post vet visit nap, in the Sweetie Spa

Very thankful today, that Sweetie gained a wee bit of weight since her last vet visit:

May: 7.00 lbs

August: 6.88 lbs

Early September: 6.72 lbs

Late September: 7.60 lbs

October: 7.75 lbs

November: 7.88 lbs

December: 7.92 lbs!

⭐🌟⭐

So very pleased, after her weight drop off earlier this year, that she's doing well.

The vet said that the most important thing is for her to eat; taking her meds is secondary.

We've tried this and tried that over time, never with 100% success.

I found small portioned cat food, and break open one of these multiple times a day.

Fresh food seems to attract her, and am tweaking the amounts so we have as little waste as possible.

And, conversely, we don't want her swelling up like a balloon either!

Speckled

It's Sweetnesday!

Our Miss Growly Pants may be a housepanther, yet she's speckled with fine white hairs all over.

Her paws and legs.

Her chest (that's dusty fuzz on her face!)

Her whiskers really shine in the sun.

Sweetie received her sixth Solensia injection last week, along with a six-month check-up.

She'd lost some weight, and mention of her usual morning bomit sessions caused the veterinarian to take blood and urine samples (no results yet), and prescribed an appetite stimulant.  

Afraid of over-stimulating to the point of being kept up all night while Sweetie begs for food, we crushed up 1/4 of one wee pill, and I dust in only a few grains into her food.

It works; she eats up her meals lickety-split!

Here's hoping her next weigh-in will read over 7 lbs.
