Max Update: Max had another trip to the vet last week to check his thyroid level. It's much better —donw from 146 to 85— but still high above the target mark of 45. So now he gets pills twice a day, and another trip to the vet in a month to re-check his thyroid level. Poor Maxxie. Now he's taken to avoiding me in the morning, and I just hate that ( Read more... )

I'm imagining you with a can of paint painting a sitcomesque line down the middle of the apartment (tip... make sure your half has the bathroom, and the front door! This can lead to all sorts of "just use the balcony" hilarity).

If I time my next visit for the 9th, can big brother be persuaded to move in on the 11th instead?

Pill pockets are awesome, I've used them on my dogs. I dunno how they work with cats, because I've seen cats eat their way around, say, half a pound of cheese and leave the pill part intact. But it's worth a shot.

Also, I have the brother problem in reverse, in which I am a lot older than either of my brothers, and one of them just moved to Denver and then went and turned 30, which is... bizarre, and distressing. And sad. And fuck, I'm nearly dead.

Excuse me, please, while I go have sex, drink bourbon, smoke cigars, play video games, and read classic books ALL AT THE SAME TIME.

Hey, you.

I've been there with the whole 'my cat is afraid of me' thing - the last 10 days of Mikko's 31 day antibiotic course after he ripped out the claw was heartbreaking. He'd taken the pills himself for 21 days and then just decided he was done with that.

Try the pillpockets though; I'll be crossing my fingers for the both of you.

You know you're always welcome here should you have the need to get the heck out for an evening or whatever.

Take care of you!

Well look at you, all alive an' posting an' shit. Hiya!

I am pleased to report that the Pill Pockets worked. Happy days are here again.

Hopefully I won't be driven frommy home and be in need of your kind offer of safe haven for an evening, but I appreciate it nonetheless. ;-)

Good to hear from you! Don't be a stranger!
