Saturday Stuff

I went to the doctor again yesterday. I go every Friday because they have to check my cast and re-do the bandage.
I'm waiting for the doctor to come in. Sorry about the worse-than-usual picture quality.

I've been having a lot of litterbox problems. I'll go in the box over and over again and cry. I do this all throughout the day and night. It turns out I'm full of it...poop, that is. They asked Mama to leave me there for a few hours because they needed to do lots of things to me. I had to have (gasp) an enema. I also have another urinary tract infection. I now have more pills than you can shake a paw at. I have my regular hyper-t and blood pressure pills and now have antibiotics, poop pills and pain medication. It's not easy being an older lady.
Today, it's been six weeks exactly since I got the cast. They took an x-ray of my paw and it's still not completely healed. Mama wants to celebrate when the cast comes off. I'm hoping for a cast removal party with turkey, ham and marshmallows.

Happy weekend!

  7. Lucy, we're so thankful your Mom takes such good care of an old biddy kitty like you! It IS hard getting old. Our Felix gets a pinch of Miralax in his food every day to help keep his trains running on time...it works wonders! Maybe your vet might think it would help for you.

  11. Oh Lucy! We're sorry you're having poop and pee issues. Y'know, Zoey has had poop and pee issues. The mom has switched her to completely canned grain free food only and she adds lots of water to it. Zoey also gets a little Miralax in her food and she takes cisapride now. She still doesn't poop everyday but she hasn't had any pee issues lately.

    We sure hope you are feeling better soon. We're ready to party with you!!

  13. OMCs Lucy what in the world happened to your precious paw...
    I guess it is hard to use the box properly when you cannot dig in it.
    Dear me surely when the cast comes of you can get back to your normal routine.
    Hugs Madi your BFFF
