Howdy!


 


I know it’s been a very long time since I’ve done a post. We think of you, our friends, often and have missed you a lot.

Here’s what’s been going on with me the last few months:
I went blind earlier this year due to off-the-charts high blood pressure.  I’m now doing well because I take my blood pressure pills every day.  I also take hyper-thyroid pills twice a day and prednisone for bloody poops.  In May, I moved to Texas with Mama, Papa, Simba and Annie.  Mama was really worried how I would adapt to a new home not being able to see and if I would be able to find the litter box. She was so proud of me because I walked from the bedroom to the litter box immediately with no problems and didn’t need any help (thanks to Simba’s stinky poops, I just smelled the way).  I still love to eat and love attention.  I purr with the best of them. Now that the weather is getting cooler, I walk around on the patio and love to sit in front of the open window and smell the fresh air.

Mama wanted me to add that Annie has been doing great. She is (finally) completely comfortable with Simba and me and feels secure with all of us.  She hasn’t had any recurrence of bladder stones, even with the stress of the move.  Simba is doing really well too. He still gets fluids but only needs them about once a week.

I’m looking forward to visiting everyone and finding out the latest news with y’all.

  11. Hi Lucy! We are so glad to hear from you...we've missed you too. We're sorry you are still blind...we thought maybe your sight would come back once you got your blood pressure down. But we're glad you are adjusting to it and doing well. And it's great that Annie is doing good now too.

  12. It's so good to hear from you sweethearts. We haven't been back long due to quitting the internet. I'm sorry to hear of your health problems. And I'm glad to hear Simba's poop guides you to the litter box. Mom says mine sticks...mol, smells OK to me.mol Enjoy your new home. We'll look forward to future posts.

  14. Hi Lucy, We are so happy to hear from you again. We missed all of you. Lucy we are so happy that you are doing well and handling your loss of eyesight well. Annie it's great that you are feeling secure and trusting with your family now. Simba good for you on requiring only once a week fluid feedings.

    I couldn't help but be sad to hear that Lucy is blind. My Mr.Sunshine was blind too and got along well. I think it bothered me more than it did him.
    Cats have a wonderful way of accepting things and moving right along.

    We hope to hear lots from you. We haven't been posting near as much lately but have been trying to do better.

    Hugs Purrs & Woofs
    from all of us
