Scarlett

I realize I haven't posted any updates, but I don't have much to
tell. She went back to TED today and they took a bunch (!) of blood
to test her for various things. FIV/FLV was one I was going to have
done again anyway, but they're also testing for toxoplasmosis, and
exposure to the feline coronavirus because 2 vets now have said the
letters FIP. Good news I guess is that vet gave us the antibiotic for
toxo (an antirobe) to start on because she thinks its probable. She's
still sleeping an awful lot, but has a good appetite, and even gained
a little more weight since Saturday (I'm afraid maybe being at work
away from home 11 hours a day might be making her undernourished
because I don't think she's eating the dry food I leave for between
meals) Her temp was down today and her eyes look a little better
since they aren't as red, but she still squints like they're
sensitive to light. No more seisure-like activity since the first on
Saturday.


Poor baby, she's having such a tough time of it right now. Hobbes,
Selena, Lacey and Sam are sending their most sincere purrs and gentle
headbutts that Scarlett continues to improve and that all of the tests
for feline nasties come back negative. Headbutts for you too, Cheryl.

Well, that is certainly good that there have been no more of that stuff! I
will order the kitties to purr for Scarlett while I am gone.

Poor little baby. We're still purring for a good diagnosis, easy
treatment and quick recovery.
