welcome!
Well, if you've been here, lately, you'll know that while the design has changed, the content hasn't. I just don't have the energy to devote to graphics like I used to, but I still mess around here and there so I still like having the site up.Thanks to all of the folks over the years who have supported my graphics habit and thanks to all those who have current requests outstanding (don't worry; I haven't forgotten you and you will get your graphics at some point...) and even to those of you who check the site out, but don't request. It's here for you to look at so feel free.
the current lowdown on Tigger.
So, the recap, for those of you who don't know, is that Tigger, my dear kitty whom I love very much (picture here if you'd like to see her), has been diagnosed with severe hyperthyroidism, including liver toxicity due to it. I'd like to thank all of you for all the support and advice that I received; my friends truly came through for me when I needed the validation and assistance to deal with the situation.Tigger recently got very sick and, after a day or two of her getting sick and not eating (which, if you know her, means she's definitely ill...) I took her to the vet. The vet stated that she seemed to be in perfect health (no pain detected upon palpitation, no jaundice, no anything!). So, I took her home.
Although she isn't getting sick, anymore, she still isn't eating the way she used to. I'm used to her begging for her wet food, me giving it to her, and her scarfing it down so fast that I'm lucky to get my fingers out of the way in time. Lately, she's sooooort of begged, I've put the food down, she's eaten a bite or two with reluctance and then walked away. Not good.
This morning, she seemed a little better. She begged with a little more enthusiasm and I think she ate more than she has, lately. I called the vet, yesterday, and they told me to entice her to eat with whatever I could (tuna, liver, whatever) and then call them if she's still not eating the way she should be.
Wish us luck!
