I saw the you-know-who.

 Kitties!  Woofies!  I went to my appointment Thursday late afternoon. I got my clars cutted again, my earsies cleaned again, my certain glands, *clears throat* expressed, and my bloods drawn for the T4 test.   Mom also bought me Royal Canin Kidney dry food.  A dear friend gave mom a baggie full to try and she tested me with it. I loved it.  So now, she has an 8.6 pound bag at $59.00  I am worth it.  I have been eating it.  I hope I continue because the urine clumps have decreased even more. They did somewhat when I started my methimazole but now, it is even less than with the thyroid med.  That is great.  

The Dr. called Mom Friday morning and told her my thyroid reading was 1.6!!  How's THAT!!! He said to keep on what we are doing. 

 While we were there and mom was waiting for me to be returned to my room, the door opened and it was the receptionist asking if I had a black car.  Mom said "yes" and the receptionist said "Someone hit it."  Mom told me she picked up her purse and went straight to the parking lot.  The woman who hit the car was following Mom though, Mom didn't know that.  Mom give her full credit.  She came straight in and told what she'd done so as to tell the car owner.  Which was my mom.  The woman was very frightened, and my mom was very kind.  Believe me.  

We will start with calling the place that will fix it in the morning to get an appt. to have an estimate.  Then., get an appointment to have the rear panel on the passenger side fixed.  Several not too large dents and paint scraped off. What a day.  

AND I gained 2 ounces!! Kitties, Woofies. 8.4.   I have my new chair now.  The tech will see it this coming Thursday because mommy can't recline and stay down when she tries.  She strains and gets all the way down... then she rebounds all the way upright like a bride's garter snapped out into the crowd of men guests at a wedding! Just instant upright Mommy.  she can't keep it down.  My brother could, and my human sister too but not pitiful mom.  Go figure!  We will report what the tech says when he gets here.  I will show it to you.  I already like it.   Wanna see?

Mine (and hers when I am not in it)

MINE *she'd never make it*

I'm so very glad for your great news from the vet! As for the accident, it happens and it's good the lady owned up to it. Some people don't.

Katie, what good news from the vet! And eating your new food is terrific news, too. Well, except for the functional problem, which can hopefully be fixed, I really like the new chair. I like green and I think that's a nice green color.

Katie! We're so happy about your really excellent v-e-t news. Keep up that great work, okay? As for the accident, we are glad no one got hurt and that the lady who hit your mom's car admitted fault and was sorry. The chair is super cool - we hope it can get fixed up so Mom can make it go down. We love your sunflower tree, of course. Purrfect for YOU! XO

Well, it's rare when a vet visit is better for you than your mum, eh, Katie?

I am glad you had such a good vet visit, Katie. I am sorry about your mom's car, but glad the lady came in and admitted what happened. So many people hit and run nowadays! I hope the chair can be adjusted for your mom.

Lynn and Precious said...

Katie we are very excited for you with all these wonderful news updates. About yourself. Not so good for your mom. You keep eating that new yummy cat food and being as energetic as you are.

Kea said...

Katie, I'm glad the vet visit and test results were so good! Hurrah!

I'm not glad to read about your mom's car, though at least the woman who hit it owned up to it right away, didn't just take off.

I hope the chair tech can make appropriate adjustments to it so your mom can actually sit in it properly!

Chaplin: "We're glad you got such a good report from the vet, Katie, and that the foods are working well for you! Sorry about your mom's car, though!"
Charlee: "Do you ever think cars are more trouble than they're worth? The humans have to fix them, put gas in them, and they use them to bring us to the vet."
Java Bean: "Sí, that's true, but they also take us to the park. So, totally worth it."

Great news, Katie! Sorry about your mom's car. Hope it gets fixed soon.

The Florida Furkids said...

Yay for a good visit with Dr. Stabby. Boo hiss on the car but at least the person was nice enough not to just leave.

Sounds like things sare looking up for Katie. Maybe the chair is for an airplane to get you out fast.

Good job Katie !

Kitties Blue said...

The new recliner is a great color, according to our mom. And she has the same problem with most recliners ... keeping the back down when she iOS in it. Hope the tech can fix this for y'all. Sounds as if things went well at the vet, and super good news about gaining some ounces! You go, girl!

Glad to see the improvement in thyroid reading. Hope the damage to the car hot fixed.

Sweetheart, I’m so excited about your excellent Dr visit, except the glands (sorry)! You and your mom take good care of each other! Can I come try out the new chair with you? ❤️ Kat

Wow, what a day! Good news for you, bad news for the car. I'm glad you like the prescription food. In that case your mom won't mind paying so much for it.
