The Road Is Rough Again

There Might Be Some Kangaroo in Grace
While Grace has endeared herself to this household - she has 21 toes! she fetches! - Glenwood has been struggling with infection, and we are in the midst of a second round.  A shot of a long-lasting antibiotic plus a run of Clavamox seemed to do the trick the first time, then last Sunday she retreated again.  I made an appointment at One Love, and she must have overheard because she went behind the TV, then under the bed, then under the dresser, and so on.  I could not get her.  So I cancelled the appointment, and having overheard that, she marched out for a scritch.  I grabbed her, remade the appointment, and showed up with cat hair all over me from crawling under the bed.  The kind receptionist handed me a lint roller.

Looks Like Taxidermy But Just Yawning
She got another shot last Sunday with an ear medication to give her twice daily for ten days.  But when I got home she went behind the TV for four days.

May 5 through May 9
She's out now so receiving her meds, but making strange respiratory noises when she eats.  At least she's eating, if not grooming much.  I have found her perched with my cat memorabilia, which is unnerving ...

Where Cats Rest
