thaddeaus is growing hair back!!!!!!!

finally!

back in october..... little blue eyes got sick

we rushed her to the vet

it was some sort of a virus

she had medicine and after two visits to the vet she was fine

fawn had a light touch of it, the vet told me just give her calpurrnia's medicine

and yes that helped her as well



that brings us to 'the boy'



he wouldn't TAKE the medicine

and he started to lose weight

btw, cats lose weight VERY fast when they have the trots

after a very scary and extremely expensive office visit with thaddeaus,

plus shots, oral meds both pills ( yeah right) and liquid

thaddeaus wasn't getting any better

AND all ( and I DO mean ALL) his fur fell out!


that is a picture of him in the process of losing his fur



thankfully while he could NOT smell food.....he was so used to me hand feeding him that when i offered him HAM of all things, he ate it!

and then ate the cat food i hand fed him

after two weeks of many many meals ..... many many times a day

i finally got his weight back



and now thankfully his fur has started to grow back



now

two interesting side notes to this



one, he now sleeps UNDER the goosedown quilt between bernie and i.........



hmmmmmm





and two,

i got really funny pictures of him in his hot pink long johns........

which helped to keep him as warm as we could

even with keeping the woodstove burning on high

( and he loves his woodstove as you all know)



ps: he was mortified with the pictures so he's moving like crazy that's the blur but there he is .....in pink

I TOLD him if he took his little sister's mouse i would post them........







now

'the boy' is fine..... sassy, healthy, busy, bad to the bone.....

his newest thing is attacking the clothes pins on the indoor clothes line we have near the woodstove

he has regained his love of banannas

and has decided the between mommy and daddy under the goosedown is THE place to be.....

except possibly when mommy feeds daddy beans and homemade pumpkin muffins.....



then it's probably safer to sleep in the hollow tree cat bed in the corner.....
