Berfert Don't Feel So Good
At first I put it down to moping about Rascal's death. Berfert had
stopped eating as much as normal. The other day I ran my hand over his back and he felt thin and rough. He was mildly interested in the his favorite foods, but didn't eat more than a bite or two at a time. I called and made an appointment. Today, Berfert showed a bit of his old strength when we tried to get him into the carrier. He sang "Please release me" as we drove to TED Stevenson. Tests have been run, and it looks like Berfert has some sort of infection. Not all the results are back, of course, so we don't know for sure what's up. He's on antibiotics (he hates them, of course) and if he doesn't respond well enough by Monday, will be getting x-rays and further testing. His blood levels were normal except for his white count. His temperature was only 99 F. which is low for a cat. He did protest when TED was palpating his body. His teeth are good, with a little tartar, which took out one theory. We're worried about him, but Doc Stevenson is one of the best TEDs in the area and we have a lot of confidence in him. If you have some spare purrs, I think Berfert would appreciate them. Our crew is purring up a storm for him, and Merlin is staying with him at all times. Pam S. |

Purrs for poor Berfert to return to normal real soon.
And purrs for his Meowmie not to worry. Lois "Tanada" wrote in message ... At first I put it down to moping about Rascal's death. Berfert had stopped eating as much as normal.

He says that Berfert flatly isn't allowed to be sick, and he needs to get back to tormenting his slaves as is his duty ASAP. (Unless of course, this is a b*st*rd c*t trick in itself, and then its allowed) Fluffy just wags and drools, as usual. She hates for any of her friends to be sick. Yowie, adding prayers as well. |

There are always healing purrs to go around. Many purrs that it's just a minor infection that will go away with the antibiotics. -- Marina, Frank and Nikki marina (dot) kurten (at) pp (dot) inet (dot) fi |

Hope it turns out to be nothing serious and that he feels better soon. Today, Berfert showed a bit of his old strength when we tried to get him into the carrier. I'll bet he did! Joyce |
