Thanks for the update. So glad you have him home where hopefully he will improve each day. Don't forget to keep us updated. Enjoy your potatoes

This is great news! Glad to hear he's doing better! If you have to be in isolation, no better company than your cat / cats for sure. I recently went through surgery and was all but incapacitated for 4 months. Everything changed as far as sleep schedule, were I slept, everything concerning routine went out the window. My cat Manny knew something was up and just rolled with and never left my side. He even realized I wasn't able to take him on his daily walks. I was just amazed at how well he adapted. Don't know what I would have done without him to be honest.

Hope your boy continues to do well and best of luck!

Sabian oh my.. Hope you're all good now.. Bless our felines so empathic.. Terry knew I was concerned but had no energy. We both had teary eyes last night.. His given love and also showed a bit of play... He goes mad for spaghetti and mustered enough energy tonight to swipe some.. Goes mad for Q tips too.. I've a home made feather wand toy he will drag from its last position to wherever I am and demand I control it for his playtime.. He like to parade it in his mouth to the other cats so I have to follow him.. Like he takes me for walks. Hope this is just a bizarre scare and he's back to T-Bone Terry ASAP.

How is Terry today?

 

[terrencephillip]

Verna... Was hard leaving him for day... He had a small breakfast and a huge poo haha I was offered cash work for the day.. Offset a fraction of these costs... Came home.. He was bright eyes... Pleased to see me and ate a tiny amount with his meds... Half hour later finished the full portion and is currently gassed out on top of the cooker.

 

[verna davies]

He looks really comfortable up there and it sounds as if he is on the mend. Great news.

 

[terrencephillip]

After he spent days in all the spots he doesn't this is one of his favourite... Watches me cook and I sit in the kitchen mostly not the huge lounge.. Closer to the coffee. Good to see big long breathes again and not the tiny short fast ones... Fingers crossed this is the end of a huge scare... As I said before.. I've lost my first cat his brother this year... 2020 dishing out nightmares. His eyes have rolled and he's dream twitching.

What a lovely thing to log in and read!

How is Terry doing now, is he back to his usual self?

 

[terrencephillip]

Hi Verna.. He's eating again very well but not 100% but much better. Still a small amount of hyper salivation. He's roaming and grooming the two other cats again but isn't involved in chase or stampede. He's lost weight around 1.5kg in all of this... But he's eating like a champ again. His cuddle game has improved. Spends the entire night in my arms.. If I roll over he climbs over.. He must have a paw on my chin and share airspace with me. Totally adorable. This was him last night. He's getting there. Few other cat owners I know have had similar experiences found out a mate lost two of hers this month like this. Thank and count my blessings. Thanks for asking

 

[verna davies]

Pleased to hear this news, he looks comfortable and happy. It took two weeks for mine to get back to eating normal and a few weeks after that she had regained all her weight (and more). Hope you have strong shoulders.

 

[terrencephillip]

Yeah I have.. He lived on my shoulders as a kitten for months. Every now and then he will jump up and sit up there.. So him doing this yesterday was a huge bonus of positivity. Can't believe he's lost so much weight but stress does that. I've lost 4kg in all this.

 

[Mamanyt1953]

He's a gorgeous boy, and GOOD GRIEF, you look enough like one of my friends to be his brother! I don't see him often, but next time I do, I'll try to get a picture.

Did they ever tell you whats wrong?

 

[terrencephillip]

Did they ever tell you whats wrong?

No the vets didn't.. Two days of checks tests and nothing. Still a mystery. But he was ill for sure. Losing weight not eating. Only thing left is psychology.

Just want to say your cats are gorgeous you are lucky to have them and they are extra lucky to have you hope your moggie soon gets back to normal. I had to have my lovely cat put to sleep in September and I still miss her terribly especially with this Covid problem.
Love and best wishes. x

 

[terrencephillip]

Oh no sorry to hear that.. Losing them is the worse but knowing we got to share time and love is the memory and energy we need to hold on to.. I'm giving him.. And he's giving me all our waking spare time together.. His cuddles are next level.

 

[sabian]

Sabian oh my.. Hope you're all good now..

Yes terrencephillip I'm all better now. I'm still healing but back to work and doing "self therapy". I'm so glad to here your boy is better. Wish you knew for sure what it was. It could have been anything I guess. A spider bite, respiratory infection, who knows. Main thing he's back to himself. Glad everything worked out for the best!

 

[sabian]

F Felix19+ I'm so sorry for your loss. I've been through it several times over the years and it never is an easy thing to go through. It takes time to get over it. Just remember though, when your ready, there's plenty of cats out there that need a good home. I actually think that when my previous cats passed they led me to the next cat. Sounds crazy I know but, I really do believe that!
