Good Tuesday morning, LL
WCR: Most Ps in place. Shasta's appy is pretty good this morning. She's finished off a little over an ounce of FF Chunky Chicken & some of her FFEMF Chicken w/ cosequin (hence the jump to 311 @ +1). She woke me up about +10 last night with the sounds of upchucking.
She didn't actually throw up anything...well, nothing that I could see. I felt a little wetness on the carpet, but nothing much. After I cleaned it up, she hoped back in bed with me and snuggled. In fact, she was the best snuggler this morning.
I got a different perspective of her toenail last night when I decided to soak it in her anti-fungal shampoo. The toenail (sheath) has almost completely ripped off now. I did not see this coming. It was never this loose. I half expect her to tear it off completely, but she hasn't done it yet. I sent my pics and this video to my vet and we'll see what they say. And for those of you who don't know, Miss Shasta turns into a Tasmanian Devil when we step into the vet's office. The only way the vet can work on her is to sedate her (she has a heart condition on top of being 16 years old) and the last time we did this, she almost didn't fully come out of sedation.
I wish she were a better patient for our vet, but she's a one handler kind of cat.
Here's our quick video from last night. You'll see the toenail (sheath) pulls all the way back from what I thought was an odd growth, but may end up being the rest of the toenail?!
Top two pics were taken yesterday afternoon and the "sheath" was not loose. I was thinking the growth underneath it was an anomaly. However, the pics underneath were taken last night as I was soaking it and I could pull the sheath back and it was basically hanging on by a thread.
Ok, sorry for the graphic pics. I'll let you all know what the vet says. Sending healthy vines to all our sugar kitties and their hoomins! Blessings!

I did hear back from them today via email and a follow up phone call. Here is what they said: Typically when there is a fungal infection of the nail and nail bed the nail will eventually fall off. Continue the treatment as you are. Once the nail is gone it should continue to slowly get better. The little pink "growth" appears to be the nail quick.
Actually, at this very moment in time, she's pissed that I'm not allowing her to sit on my lap. Ok, time to soak a toe. 
Is anyone bleeding? It's a little bit funny and very sad.
