Bobcat awake (rarity!)
Bobcat has been sleeping lots of late. I’ve begun to wonder if the FeLV is finally taking hold. Hard to tell. I mean, she is a cat and she likes to sleep. She’s also extremely temperamental. And mostly mental. We went to the Vet today and found out she’s lost 1 lb in 3 months. That’s a lot for a cat and isn’t a good thing. I treated her to some good salmon tonight in hopes of helping her eat some and also as a treat after putting up with far too much poking and prodding. She had urine drawn (I think she might have a urinary tract infection), blood drawn, temperature taken (rear-ended), nails cut and strange people holding her. She fought and howled the whole time. You’d swear she was being tortured or something.
Anyways, we’ll get blood results tomorrow. I’m hopeful that the FeLV hasn’t gotten worse and that her weight loss is more the result of being picky. She’s my last furrkid we’ll have for a while. We’re not allowed to have furrkids here and given that we’re likely to move to California (although with everything going on there, I’m not sure how well it will go). The distance of the move would be a lot for a new kitten or other furrkid. But we’ll see. So today was a long day (I started at 7am and have yet to go to bed). Keep Bobcat in your thoughts. I really don’t want her to go through what the kittens went through. She hates the vet enough.
