The white cat... again

[muninnhuginn]

We took Little to the vet (and saw the lovely man who fixed her paw and has treated her for a very long time) yesterday, and he found:

• we'd kept her weight stable for a month


• there were no obvious signs of illness


• she's got grotty teeth, as ever, but not grotty enough to be the main factor in her weightloss

We discussed the possibilities for a nearly 16 year old cat: diabetes, dodgy thyroid, kidneys... And he took bloods and we carted her off home.

It's the beginnings of kidney problems. So, a new specialised diet for her. And, in the grand scheme of things, something we can cope with.

She did, of course, eat heartily before her appointment and again last night. She is still looking for The Cat in the TV.

Stable weight is good. I hope she continues to eat.

Thank you. She's definitely got her appetite back and likes the renal support catfood.

The Cat in the TV seems to be a positive thing. I wonder if she would like to watch Goldfinger (or any dvd with white cats in it)?

I'm wondering about that: it may well be a job for the Kossett Cat.

I hope she continues to be stable (or improve).

Thank you.
