Glad to hear Lucky is doing better, Maria. And that pilling her is relatively easy. The only time I had problems with either of my cats was when one was on chemotherapy. The pills were huge and he just couldn't swallow them. Fortunately, pillers exist and that seemed to do the trick most times; it could get the pill farther back in the throat than I could.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I'm super grateful in so many ways, not in the least that I don't fear losing a finger trying to make her better. I've heard the stories from you all here, and I was terrified.
She really has made remarkable strides in just a few days. The vet said a stroke is a stroke in cats; there's no difference like there would be with a CVA versus a TIA in humans. We had serious discussions about quality of life and when is the right time to make the call. Now, other than the abnormally dilated eyes, you can't tell she had a major medical event last Thursday. I'm in awe.
Yay Lucky!
I think tonight is going to require a burrito.
Yay, Lucky! I hope she continues to improve.
I am currently eating Trader Joe's plantain chips, which are yummy, in case anyone was wondering.
Timelies all!
Yay, Lucky!
Gary is doing both dropoff and pickup at daycare for the little guy(who's not that little any more, and is walking. Boy are we in trouble now. :)) while I heal. Unfortunately, he's got a couple of business trips coming up this week and next, so have to do all the wrangling.
Good to see you again, Karl. It's good to see everyone.
Moving ~ma for them that's moving. Always an adventure!
Glad Lucky's doing so well! And that she's willing to swallow her pills, wow.
I'm coming out of over a week of the worst episode of chronic anxiety I've ever experienced. I see the new psychiatrist Thursday and we're gonna talk about getting me back on medication that works, because this cannot happen again. I've got shit to do; I can't waste any more time on this useless misery.
I blame the Supermoon.
Oh, now I will, too. Thanks! Monday has lived up to the loom. AMong other things, the report I have been pulling together for the last, oh, 4 days or so? I mentioned it to my salesperson and she asked if I could make it for only one of the three accounts I had included. Which of course I will now do. So that's a lot of wasted analysis under the bridge.
Aw, Amy, that's a drag! Not taking cash is whack.
Yay, Lucky! Hang in there. Like the poster. ANd good job taking those pills.
Dammit, Consuela eating lunch in the sun reminded me that it;s Sukkot and I should be taking my meals outside. I hate when I forget that.
Good to see you, Karl! You don't have to keep up to drop in whenever you have time, ok?
Wow, Sheryl, walking!
Good luck with the new psychiatrist, Zen.
Good to see you Karl.
Matt and I spent a week driving down and up California. - We didn't actually expect to be home until later today , but decided to push through and made it home last night about 10. But wisely, we are still home today. I go back to work tomorrow- Matt might make in tomorrow, I think he his still debating.
That sounds fun, beth!
