Merlin - just an update for his kind friendsAs I haven't given an update on Merlin for a while, thought I would in case his kind friends were worried about him! He is doing as well as can be expected I think. He seems to be a lot better since the vet reduced his Metacam dosage. He now has just 2 units per day, instead of 3. Since the last dash to the vet at the beginning of February, he has had no further occurrence of the constipation/vomiting problems and has been eating well - still on Felix and toileting regularly. I do keep a close eye on whether he does a poo at least every other day and if not, give him a dose of lactulose which seems to do the trick! He is bright, reasonably active, jumping up onto our bed in the mornings as normal and onto his favourite seat on the back of the sofa. His coat is glossy and he manages to groom himself. I do keep a daily eye and bathe his cyst. He has been very loving over the last month or so and I cuddle him as often as possible. Neither OH nor MIL has to sit down for long before they have him curled up on their laps. So, for now, we keep going. He sends purrrrrrs to his kind friends and don't I wish I could purrrrrr too!

Thank you for Merlin's update Angie, it's heartwarming to know the old boy is doing so well considering..  I hope, when the warmer weather comes, he can relax and enjoy the sunshine..  Are we due a photo or two shortly?   |

I think I may have missed the start of this but it`s always good to hear about our friends on the mend. Over on another site one lady reminded us it was now three years since her Sylvester vanished for a week only to be found but had to have a fore paw amputated. `Silly` (alias tripod) looks great so yes pics please |

Steph - you will find Merlin's "history" here if you care to browse - it's a bit long I'm afraid which is why I started a new thread! http://www.catsey.com/showthread.php?t=25616 Glad to hear that Silly aka tripod is looking good! I'll get the camera out - Merlin is currently asleep in his favourite spot. Ha ha - did you see, my signature has come on!!!! |
