Back from the vet and Kittenish has gained almost half a pound! I am quite pleased about this. Should get the results on her bloodwork tomorrow.
I bought a chicken club from Carl's as a treat and fed her bunches of grilled chicken. Now we are both happy.
AmyLiz's glass shard reminded me of a 'foriegn bodies making their way out' story that I haven't thought of in yonks.
I had a Laura vs. roadway thing when I was in my teens and dating a young lad with a motorcycle. The people in the ER just wrapped a bunch of stuff around both my hands and let it heal with all the junk under my skin. For at least a couple years the gravel and glass would work its way out. I'd notice something odd on my wrist and pull out another piece of gravel. It was all very fascinating. My parents didn't find it quite as amusing.
good fat little kitty!
She's still quite thin but I am working on it! I swore I wouldn't even tease her if she got a belly again. Thus the grilled chicken.
omg, YOU made her kittyrexic!
Her
thyroid
made her kittyrexic. I am shooting her twice a day and feeding her grilled chicken.
The only thing missing is a support group. Or a therapist. She could use the therapist, actually.
Yay Kittenish! Pack on those pounds, kitty!

This might work for gravel, but supposedly NSM with coral. It was always the ongoing fear when I was stationed on Diego Garcia. They even had a "no slide" rule for softball. Mainly because coral that gets under the skin can commence to grow. So, if you got cut by coral, you had to go to the dispensary and get the cuts scrubbed out. Not pleasant at all. Fortunately, I think it was an old wive's tale as I fell one time and sliced my palm up with a razor coral and I scrubbed it out myself, not too vigorously. Nuthin' grew.

Unless you're a coral-based pod creature . . .
