Well Sophie has been home nearly two months and thing are looking better. We took her to the vet last week and she has gained 3 oz and her blood work has show slight improvement in kidney function. She’s very active around the house and is getting around well. It is amazing how this cat health problem could come up so quickly. We are also fortunate that the treatments that we are using seem to be working.
One of the most interesting thing that is happening is that the other three cats seem to be aware that something is wrong and are being very gentle with her. We’ve even spotted Bobbie grooming her when in the past they were almost mortal enemies.
Sophie also had a thyroid problem and we have to give her a pill every day. We find using Pill Pockets is the most effective way to give her the pill each morning.
We are still hydrating her three days on and one day off. I do not enjoy the process but I know it is necessary. We know it’s still day to day but we do the best we can for her and are thankful we still have her.
