It's Been A Long Two Weeks.

Hey all. I just wanted to post a quick update to let you all know that I'm not dead and I haven't forgotten about you; I've just been insanely busy with work, moving, and a sick cat for the past two weeks, so I haven't had time to do my nails or post any blogs.

I'm trying to get settled into my new house, but I recently found out that my bestest buddy has chronic kidney disease, so there's been lots of ferrying him to and from the vet and learning all about CKD and the treatment options he has. He needs subcutaneous fluids to help keep him hydrated now, and it breaks my heart to have to stick him with a giant needle every day, but we're getting through it. I think he knows that I'm doing it to help him, so he's been very brave and doesn't put up too much of a fuss at sub-Q time (I think the fact that he gets a bowl of his new prescription renal-health formula cat food during his sub-Q is a pretty delicious distraction for him).

So anyway, I just wanted to post real quick to let you all know what's going on and where I've been and that my nails are looking AWFUL right now--too much scrubbing with hot, soapy water in an effort to get the new place sparkling--but I'll try to get myself all cleaned and polished one of these days so that I can make a proper post.

Hey guyz. Is me, Jericho. I's not feeling so good lately. Plees send me happy, healing energyz. And maybe some fud and treets.

    1. Sorry it's taken me so long to reply. I read your comment a day or two after you posted it, and immediately baby-talked my bubby. ; )

      Thanks for the prayers, too! He's been in and out of the vet a lot, including a stay at the animal ER this week--but he's in a good mood tonight, and that's enough for me for now. : )
