quick update on (formerly) fat cat

[fizzgig]

she's holding steady at 7.5 pounds or so after coming in at 6.5 over the spring. she gets crunchy treats and/or soft food when she asks but is getting a bit picky about what flavor of soft food she'll eat. i was able to sneak the hard kidney food into the soft food for a bit, but then she got hip to that and just licked around it, leaving the kibble in the bowl. i haven't taken her back to the vet because everything seems fine in terms of eating, drinking, playing and using the box.

i weigh her once a week or so and will take her back for more tests if her weight starts slipping again, but i don't expect getting labs now will show any change.

i was so upset about how tiny she was after the last vet trip and i am so relieved she's doing well now.

1. Glad she's holding her own.

Hope she stays stable. Blessings to you and her.

2. Keep up the good work.

Whatever you are doing seems to be working. I agree that I wouldn't have more tests at this point since she is holding her own. Just keep doing all you can.
