January Kitty Report
I started a post at Christmas and wrote "Totally awesome day, not getting anything done..." I guess so, especially since I didn't finish the post.
What's on my mind... THB... Do you remember this? He's been on treatment ever since the diagnosis. We've had two+ pretty good years. We worked hard to treasure every day. I didn't write much about THB because we'd only have a bad day every now and then. If he was a "normal" cat I probably wouldn't have noticed him sleeping more and eating less on one day, but because he has cancer I've been watching his every move and analyzing it for the last 2 years; yup, I noticed.
He was 11-11.5 pounds when he first got sick. He was diagnosed at the end of October 2016 and he had to recover from the surgery he had (during which he was diagnosed). He did okay in November and December. A little dip in January and we switched medicine and then he held steady from February or March 2017(when we got all the medicine figured out) until about Sept-Oct 2018...
Then he was 10.5-11... then 10-10.5... then 9.5-10....The other night he was 9.2. He continues to run around, fight with the other kitties, jump, ask to go outside, and all normal kitty things. He just doesn't want to eat. This new chemo is hard on him. He had his third dose 1.5 weeks ago. I hope he starts feeling better soon. The first two times we had 2-2.5 horrible weeks and then he looked good. He ate! He played... I'm waiting for him to start to feel better again.
We love you THB. You are hilarious. You are big, tall, and you love string. You are IN CHARGE. You are totally spoiled.
