Demi was our first featured "Special Needs" pet. Here
is an update from her fantastic forever family!
Demi is doing well. Her blood work came back right on the money, so she is
on the same dose of hyper-thyroid meds. She's gained close to a pound,
although we had a few setbacks.
It turned out her teeth were in need of repair, so she got a cleaning and
three extractions. I have enclosed a photo of her standing on the sink
showing off her dental work. She recovered easily, but the antibiotic put
her off her food. Or it was a trick to get sliced deli meat from me.
My vet says she is most likely a cat of 12 or 13, so as befitting her
advanced years, she bruised her hip, or something, the vet could not find
anything wrong, and she is mostly recovered a few weeks later. I have
enclosed a photo of her glaring at me from her cat bed after being forced to
take a pain pill. Once again, she used this as an opportunity to coax
special food out of me, however :)
Her fur is filling in nicely, and every time someone visits, they exclaim
at how she gets prettier every day. It is kind of like getting a new cat
every few days. |
