Firday update


Mom delayed her trip because of Kirby's vet visit and the cold. By the time they got back from the Vet, Mom would have been driving after dark in the below freezing weather so she waited til this morning.

Kirby update. Thank you all for the purrs! He does not have a UTI, nothing to do with the urinary tract. He had a bad case of 'nopoopatal' (constipation) like Mr Hendrix Baby Joel (#2) had! The vet gave him a sedative and resolved the problem. He made many enemys! They sent home home a little woozy and with prescription diet food. He gets more to eat than before! He is doing very well today and taking care of business in the box!

Not sure if he was embarrassed by this post or giving me the back of disrespect!


Update on my Mom. She will be going home tomorrow. That does not mean she is well it just means she wanted to go home and the doctor agreed to let her.

Potty problems are No Fun, are they, Kirby? Sometimes I have poo problems because of my bad leg. I fall over in it and Mom has to clean me up with baby wipes. I do not enjoy that very much.

The Florida Furkids said...

Poopy problems are not fun! We hope you have a great Gotcha Day -maybe a nice poop too?

Wow Kirby I am so glad you are not 'farfrumpoopin' anymore.
I can see how it must have been a little overwhelming for your dear mommy to get through her days of late. Having to worry about her mommy bean can pull on the worry strings somewhat aweful. Please know we love you and are always thinking about you and sending peacefulness.
Love Misses Peach
