I'm a little concerned that she hasn't eaten anything all day, but otherwise she seems her normal self. I Know she had some heavy doses of meds via injection prior to discharge, so she may not get an appetite till tonight. I'll keep monitoring. She's been MEGA-cuddly and I'm happy to hold her in my arms.

2. She's right at home in her sink, my dear NutmegYankee!

I hope she continues to be well.

4. She loves to curl up in that sink.

I've had to move a bottle of hand soap to the kitchen sink because sometimes she's just too cute to boot from the sink.

14. I've long had cats but never had one in a sink

I think it's because I have so much stuff AROUND the sink

[NutmegYankee]

17. True.

One perk of having a single dad is open sink space.

18. is that a small sink or a big cat?

7. My cat used to enjoy lying in the sink...

...until I decided to give her a flea bath! I gave her baths about every three months to give her that clean cat smell.

8. I'm so glad she's doing well

and she's a beautiful girl. Hope you are making up for lost time with the kitty snuggles.

9. Pretty Kitteh!

If she continues not eating, try sprinkling a very small quantity of catnip on her food.

[NutmegYankee]

16. Thank you for that advice on the catnip. She ate a little finally.

Cute girl. Hope the two of you enjoy some long snuggles. My cat is warm on my lap, snoozing contentedly.

Lots of hugs and happy thots for all to be well.

15. Two of our 5 lives to sleep in sinks, and it...

...always brings a smile to my face. I'm sure having your kitty back home is bringing a smile to yours. She looks very content there.

19. beautiful kitty. glad she's home. i'm sure she's glad too. n/t

20. Awww! Such a pretty cat! And she looks so content to be home...

I'm guessing that your vet will follow up and you can tell them if she still has eating issues. My vet's office always calls the day after my dog has an appointment, just to see how he is, no matter what he was there for. My doctor never does that, LOL.

So glad to hear she's on the mend, and love the pic! Thanks for keeping us updated.

23. Priming the appetite pump

We've had some luck priming the appetite pump with tuna water, tuna, or baby food (beef, turkey, chicken). Good luck.

[NutmegYankee]

24. I figured out that she has the appetite - she just absolutely hates the GI low residue food in cans.

I'm discussing with the vet other options. She eats the dry food, but as for the canned - She just will NOT eat that food.

25. Aw...pretty girl...

I'm willing to bet that it's the meds affecting her appetite...that is very common...she'll get it back soon.
