    Ok, my 1 year adopted black Jag! What is with you? So, I went away for the weekend to visit my elderly parents. I had someone feed and pet you. So, I get home and every time you come in the door and realize someone is in the house you run out the door as quick as you came in like you don't recognize me and Dad?

    Are you nuts or what? When you wanted a lap and a bed all night, you sure didn't act like you didn't recognize me! You Crazy Cat with the anxiety disorder

    Thanks guys. This happened last year as well. He spent a week at the vet and they were never able to pinpoint what he had--which makes what may be a repeat performance all that more frustrating. He at least doesn't seem nearly as sick as last time. He was practically catonic then and was having diarrhea and vomiting. This time, he's been eating and drinking pretty normally and without incident. It's really the fever primarily. I kept him at the vet so that they can keep a close eye on him. If he doesn't respond to treatment in 24 hours then we'll start running various labs. He had bloodwork in late July that was normal. Ugh.
    Live with intention. Walk to the edge. Listen hard. Practice wellness. Play with abandon. Laugh. Choose with no regret. Continue to learn. Appreciate your friends. Do what you love. Live as if this is all there is.

    Indy - could he be diabetic? One of my kitties, who used to like to eat, then didn't, turned out to be diabetic. Seems blood work is on order to me.

    His blood glucose has been normal thus far, plus no excessive thirst or urination. Certainly I'll double check though.

    Indy I hope he's feeling better soon!


    Dear Critter:
    I know you spent the first 6 months of your life dumpster-diving, but could I just eat my food in peace? Yours is down in the bowl in your room. I don't know what you find so appealing about peach cobbler anyway (or salad, for pete's sake!). And you're gonna have to get over this "only-nice-when-you-want-food" thing.

    Signed,

    Dear fuzz-face,
    Why the sudden fascination with flinging my socks into the air and then pouncing on them?
