Happy Caturday
26th cycles on 1.25U. Fistuk is looking not so bad He's had less lime teasing because -DH made that assumption and I think he's right - Fistuk had digestion discomfort probably bc of the AB.
The second course of AB helped dry his eye tears which means probably reducing the inflammation until we get the dental surgery. But it looks like even though it didn't cause diarrhoea it did cause him some discomfort and for about three days he had me real worried.
He would eat his snacks but the big meals morning and evening he looked like he would rather move house than eat. I had to syringe feed him and he was his enthusiastic self as if normally is when seeing the syringe. He ate, cooperated, didn't push me away but it was obv he wasn't feeling great.
Since yesterday he's eating normally again, by himself and the full amount so I'm hugely relieved
Also, I noticed he goes less to the toilet. Or more accurate he pees less because we need to take him to the toilet unless it's for baked goods he doesn't go by himself.
It's not a dramatic change but there's a change - he used to pee after breakfast, after nadir snack and after supper or before bed. Now he pees only twice a day. No meow pain or anything else unusual. Last urine test (taken directly from the bladder by the vet) came with no bacteria.
I have for a couple of times the cranberry extract that helped him in the past. because it causes soft bakery I give 1/2 a capsule every other days or every two days. I discontinued because he wasn't eating and had nausea face so I wanted to eliminate the reasons. I will keep him off it for the time being.
What I think we need is good PB and that's still a pain in the booty to find a sugar free and good one in Switzerland.
We're travelling to Bilbao On the coming Tuesday And I want to give him holiday dose, especially since yesterday's nadir he decided on a 50's retro again
I'm wondering if 1U would be good - @Wendy&Neko @Angela & Cleo @tiffmaxee would appreciate your guidance.
A friend will be staying here. I'm teaching her how to take care of diabetes. She's working a few days during the stay and on those days the cat sitter will come for +3 and +7. Otherwise Sunniva is home. Testing will be more or less normal.
But I'd like to make it easier for Sunniva and also to be stress free as much as I can be when I'm away
Not an easy one for me even when DH is with him....
Wishing you all a peaceful and boring Caturday
In the pic Prince cleaning Fistuk. He always hated it and didn't let him do that as soon as he grew a little bit.

Luckily we have good natural products here but probiotics is a huge blind spot.
