Well, will you look at that! That little rascal tricked me with completely FLAT numbers after pm shot so I would go to bed, then she just waddled her way down into the yellows for HER bedtime.

I knew something was up because Shadoe was sleeping on my pillow when I woke and that is something she has not done in a very long time.

When I first brought her home from the pet store, every nite that little 6week old kitten would climb up on the bed and lie right on top of my head, every single night. I was trained quickly NOT to move or I would get the claws in my scalp, Shadoe holding on.
Now she is a bit too big to lie on my head, so now she lies around it and kicks me in the head if I am taking up too much pillow. I had to go and get some king size pillows just so |I would get a piece! This return to an old habit is such a pleasure to see.

Today, she had some chicken pieces to tide her over till am shot. She did come into the kitchen doorway to politely ask for more, I think Putty may have given her some polite lessons, so she got a few more pieces. For food today, she has some Wellness Core chicken and some Authority turkey from yesterday. I am not using the feeder today because if she needs to eat if low, I don't want her going to an empty feeder slot.

Today we did not give any pepcide because she does not seem to be nauseous in the least, if I am to judge by her appetite and lack of vomit. I did put a 0.1 squeeze of the pain med codeine onto the inside of ears; I put half in each so she would not feel lopsided. I know, weird logic I have but the instructions said I could.

Those fluids must have kicked in later in the nite for her to be down into the yellows at +10 but she was coming up by amps. I think I will get a +10 each morn to be sure she is on her way up by amps as I am at work during the week. I'll leave the increase till I am home and can monitor better. With the fluids and her going low at nite, I say better safe than sorry. Maybe I'll go with Friday for the dose increase.

On that cheery note, I am off to work.
Booboo's running all over and barking at me; no idea why, but she always yells at me for no reason - crazy cat.
Shadoe is sitting nicely on the sofa chair enjoying her codeine and insulin, I am sure.

Re: 1/19 Shadoe +10 230 amps 254

Yeah, I know my logic is a bit skewed at times, but if you stop and think about it, how does the ear really feel if you drug up only one of them?
On the off chance that it makes one feel 'different', I would rather have both feeling the same and she would not tend to get at this different feeling with her paw.

I am getting pretty good at this worrying business; my next thought was what if she cleans her ear and gets it into her mouth? What does the do to the tongue?

Argh, I need to ease up on this worrying. :YMSIGH:

If you find Booboo grooming Shadoe's ears and looking stoned, you'll know it tastes good! ;-)

Just kidding. I give Bear a transdermal med. I give it in his left ear most of the time (because I'm a right ear tester). I have never had a problem with him or Teddy ingesting it.

Linda,
Oh no :o I never even thought about Booboo, and yes, they are forever cleaning each other. nailbite_smile
Ah well, maybe it will calm Booboo down and make her less mean :lol:
 
Re: 1/19 Shadoe +10 230 amps 254 +11 416

When I got home at 530pm, Shadoe came running out and jumped right into the shot chair. I thought kind of weird, and when I patted her, she was purring and seemed OK, but she just looked like she is waiting. So I tested, and got a nice high red number :YMSIGH:

I am going ahead with her increase tonite to 5.5u; may as well as she is still stuck in those pinks despite the nice yellows the other days.

I am thankful that she now is recognizing what is making her better, even if for just part of the day, and is telling me in her way.

Just less than an hour to go before testing and her shot; I feel so badly for Shadoe, but hopefully we will see some more yellow soon.
 
Re: 1/19 Shadoe +10 230 amps 254 +11 416 dose?

Hi Gayle,

I can't advise on the dose, but I luv the whole cat report. I had to get a table for the end of the bed by my pillow to regain possession of my pillow!
 
Quite often, Shadoe's +10 or +11 are lower than her pmps; why does that happen? It just seems very odd.

Mz Shadoe was like a pouty kid tonite.

First she did not like codeine TD in her ears. Next, she did not want her ear poked, and she did not want any insulin shot. Then she did not like either of the 2 foods offered. And finally, she did NOT want any stupid SQuids.

Now, after she has had her pain cream in the ear, her insulin and fluids, she is happy as punch, took my chair when I got up and she's purring like crazy. I guess she decided all of it made her feel better; she just did not like the getting-it part of it all.

I guess it's alot like taking Buckleys; it tastes horrible but it works.

lol what a grumpy kitty!
Buckleys! :lol:

the lower +10 or +11, sometimes is a dip or a double dip if ur lucky.
as per the "curve" outline:
+11 - Rising (may dip around +10 or +11)
.
