Like a cat looking out a window!

[lavendertook]

Tuxie can see!!!!! I just spent an hour loving him up, and the doc didn't know--she said he was still blind and didn't have a good prognosis on it when I spoke to her on the phone an hour earlier, but when I got there and got him in the visiting room, his pupils narrowed when he faced the window and he went to sit by the floor length window and his head moved with the cars going by and he clearly watched a man walking toward the clinic, and he looked me in the eyes several times, and negotiated walking by narrow chair legs like a pro. So if he can't see perfectly, he can well enough for HouseCat Purposes. Thank goodness!

I'm so relieved. He's definitely doing better, but I am leaving him the night because we have to see how his blood sugars do before I can bring him home and try to keep him seizure-free. Thank you for all the awesome support through another whopper of a trial. I love you all. *hugs*

I was punching the air last night. Now for his blood sugars . . . waiting to hear form the doc on whether I should get him tonight or if he needs more monitoring.

I was punching the air, I was. (-: Today, I'm still waiting.

Oh, that's wonderful news! *dances*

I was so joyed that this function came back for him, even though it's not as important for cats as it is for us. Now for the more important blood sugar being balanced so I can take him home and medicate him properly--waiting to hear form the doc.

I'm so glad! Homecoming tomorrow will be wonderful!

[lavendertook.livejournal.com]

Thank you, my friend. The doc is still monitoring him and I'm waiting to hear from her. It's all very tricky.

OMG!!!! *cries for joy* I am so relieved!!! Praying for continued improvements for Tuxie and continued happy moments for you w/your sweet babies! <3

*hugs snugs twirls*

I was so happy, though this isn't as important as the blood sugars balancing. Vision isn't as important to housecats as it is for us. I'm waiting to hear form the doc on whether he is balancing enough to come home today.

Hooray for Tuxie! And hugs all around.

Fabulous news!

Thank you, bb!

OH, YAY!!!! YAY YAY YAY!!!!!

I am so happy for Tuxie and you.

[lavendertook.livejournal.com]

It made me so happy last night.

But balancing his blood sugars is the more important thing and I'm waiting on the vet to see if she thinks he is stabilized enough yet, so I can dose him properly without killing him.

Hooray for Tuxie's eyesight and the rest of him!

[lavendertook.livejournal.com]

Thank you, hon. I'm still waiting to hear on the rest of him.

This post made me cry, I'm so glad for your little friend that he can see and it's surely the best to stay another night in the clinic.
You must bei soooo relieved...
*hugs you very very close*

[lavendertook.livejournal.com]

I was, but I'm more worried about the blood sugars stabilizing now so I can treat him at home and keep him alive. I'm still waiting to hear form he doc if he should come home tonight or tomorrow.

[just-ann-now.livejournal.com]

Hooray!

[lavendertook.livejournal.com]

Thank you! Now on stabilizing that blood sugar . . .

[lbilover.livejournal.com]

[lavendertook.livejournal.com]

Yes, I was so joyed his vision is restored. But still waiting to hear from the doc on his blood sugars.

I am so glad Tuxie us doing so well. (Big hugs)

[lavendertook.livejournal.com]

Thank you, bb. He got through the holiday well. And now I"m hoping Moo has left something in the litterbox by the time i get home today.

Sending lots of good wishes to Tuxie.

[lavendertook.livejournal.com]

Thank you--he's doing really well now.

And a happy belated birthday to you! I hope it was a good one.

I've gone and friended you if you don't mind. We hobbity cat people need to stick together. (-:

[lindahoyland.livejournal.com]

That's great news. Thank you for friending me, Indeed we cat people should stick together. I've put you on my cats' filter so you can see my new kitten.
