Jazzy cried a lot today. I called the vet to see if I needed to increase her Miralax. I was waiting for the vet to return my call. And then an explosion went off in a nearby city. It took out our phone service. So I've not been able to get the call. I'll try again tomorrow. But I did schedule an appointment online for her.

Deilla hugs, I'm sorry there was an explosion and your kitty cries.

Nammu thanks for your Sir monitoring / approver post

Update
Didn't make a full week.. this morning pups eye looked really bad, took pup to vet this morning, no real clear answer besides it's an eye infection. She has antibiotics now, oral and eye drops.. and I'm trying to figure out how to give the eye drops, been watching YouTube videos,...

pup seems to know what the eye drops are, and seems scared of them.. I've never had to give her any so far, and still haven't due to her reaction on just sight of the bottle... but I know per her records she had parvo very young and had just recovered from it a few days before I adopted her.

This all just reminds me about her mouth, it's been one thing I've been working on since my first vet visit because pup refused to let people touch her mouth and I was told it was probably due to all the meds when she had parvo, today the vet was able to check out her mouth . Never crossed my mind about eye drops. So I'll have to be creative, slow and at least have the oral meds.

Though we have another thing to work on..
Today pup refused to go with the vet tech, unlike other times.. she actually growled a little, so they broke their rule and let me take her in and stay for the visit and help where needed.

Cats are doing well, my cat has been sleeping again in the dogs kennel- go figure

Sir is so funny. He was in his family room bed snoring away when I joined mum in the living room. Just minutes later there is Sir. Doesn’t like it when he not with us in the same room, even if he was sleeping! . He lay down under the tree and went back to sleep, he just needed to be in the same room as us!

Beauflow, how about giving pup a treat after you put the drops in her eye?

I will surely try that, but today ("yesterday"/ long day) I couldn't get her to even sit and stay when seeing the bottle.

Like at one point, She had been relaxing on the couch with me and had just taken the bottle and sat it on the table and she got up with scared ears and wouldn't come back... I'm not sure what's up with it. So I've been giving her treats just by being close to the bottle.

I've taken many things out from either pocket, bag or handed to me and I can't recall such a reaction with Any thing else... she's scared of the bottle maybe?.

I don't even have eye drops for myself that I've used. It is an odd thing in the home

We'll try again ... my friend,/roommate is willing to help too.. I just don't want to scare her even more of the drops ya know?

Beauflow, it sounds like she has some left over fears from her parvo treatment. Giving her treats when the bottle is nearby sounds like a good plan.

I have partial phone service now. I was able to talk to my mom, but when I tried calling the vet, the call didn't go through. I'll give it a little more time. Basically, I am hoping that I can give Jazzy the Miralax twice a day without problems. She seemed to be okay yesterday but she woke me up crying this morning. Nyke seems to be doing well. He's just eating a lot.

My cats are doing well. Jazzy is on Lactulose instead of Miralax now. I give it to her twice a day. It's helping. I was able to order a big bottle from Chewy at a good price. Nyke seems to have cut back on wanting to eat so much. When he's really hungry he comes to see me. He jumps up and puts his paws on my leg. I'm happy they are doing well. I was worried for a while.

Hope all have been well
Pup's eye infection cleared up but unfortunately eye drops hadn't been administered. I got it where she'd sit & stay with the bottle near but taking the cap off was too much.

I still have the bottle to continue practicing with her being ok at least seeing them.

I've been hesitant to go back to the dog park though which I'll need to get over. I just don't want pup to get sick again.

This last week pup has gotten into an off routine and it's my fault I'm sure. Around 10pm she doesn't want to go to bed, and last night she kept me up till almost 3am with her mischievous ways.

So this morning we got up a little later than usual but not too late,, which my cat wasn'thappy about; and pup, she wanted to sleep more but I didn't let her.
After we all had breakfast and I got dressed, pup and i took a hike some where new to us, which we'll do again for sure and maybe take the moderate trail some day, anyways, after the trail came back home ate lunch, then went on another walk around a park near shops,, and attempted to go to a bookstore afterwards (i had called before going asking if pup could come in). It seemed it was a little too much at the bookstore, so we didn't stay more than 10 minutes- if that- but she did an excellent sit and stay while people came in and out. Now she is napping at home, but I'm hoping we can kick this 10pm not wanting to stay in bed. It just started this last week, I think on Tuesday. The only change recent I can think of is I bought a couch and it was delivered Tuesday... I know my sleeping pattern has been off, but I had been letting pup go to bed at our normal time.

Everyone approves of the couch on a good note, pup has been nice to it for the most part and my cat seems to love it, every day he is sitting on it. Room mate cat also has been sitting with us more on it , so the couch has helped a little with bringing them closer together (ha).

Roommate cat is now letting me pick her up and pet her , which is a great improvement from July, when she only wanted to swat me to interact.

Tomorrow we have a scheduled walk with a coworker, about the same distance as the trail this morning so it'll be good.

Sir is a bit miffed at us cause neither of us slept last night so we were both late with getting up this morning and breakfast was late. It’s not as if he would go hungry cause he has his dry food and still had wet food in the dish, of course that wet food was old and therefore not fit to be eaten. He came in my bed when he heard me moving around and let me know he was not amused! he watched me like a hawk as I threw out the old food cleaned his dish and made sure to get some of the oil on top of his new 🍲

Jazzy just woke up and said hi. I gave her a treat. Nyke is sleeping in the dryer. I just did clothes today. He goes in there after I've done laundry. He's happy. Jazzy's happy. We're all doing well.

My baby Nora still begs for treats. She knows where I keep them and is always meowing at the closet door. But she's a good kitty and she's doing good. People say she's gained weight since I've had her, but it's all good, she's good. I love my baby so much I hope she has a very long life. My bunnies still don't get along and I wish I could give them a really big place to live, but other than that they are good. Nugget is a good little snuggler. Buns don't usually like to be picked up but Nugget doesn't seem to mind, and when I hold her she snuggles in all soft and warm. I love my fur babies.

Beeg had his pre-surgery blood work today. I'll be glad when the surgery is over. The growth just keeps getting bigger and oozing nasty stuff.

We just adopted a 6 month old kitty last month. He is a light orange tabby, we named him Mac, but we should have named him Rascal. He is into everything. He also makes us laugh. We are trying to keep him in. When he does sneak out he doesn’t stay out long because it is to cold.

Nyke tried to escape yesterday. I opened the door to receive a delivery, and he darted out. But I was able to grab him in time. I was so upset. There's not much to grab on with one hand. But he didn't seem hurt. He went to the window and looked out after I shut the door. I just have to lock him up before I open my door. I feel sad that he wants to run away. It's freezing out there. It's no place for a cat. He's such a pain in the butt. He's been spraying the blinds. I discovered it the other day. I'm trying to deal with it. I bought Feliway Classic. I'm just waiting for it to arrive. I hope it helps. Otherwise, I guess I'll put a litter box there.

Jazzy has been doing well. She's so sweet. She likes her home. She is good when I open the door.

Jazzy has been crying a lot lately. I stopped giving her the lactulose. I wasn't sure if it was helping. But I feel like she cries more without it. So I will start up again. I just got a bag of disposable syringes for her. That will make it easy.

Nyke's been spraying in the bathroom. I just put a litter box in there. I hope that helps him.

Sir has been sitting on his mice. Usually he’ll toss them around until they disappear under furniture and such, but lately he’s just walking up to them and sitting on them!

Maybe he is hoping they hatch and produce more mice.

Update on Beeg.... he healed well from the surgery after an initial setback. The hair has almost grown back. The scar goes all the way across his back, but doesn't look too bad. I tell him it adds even more character, since he is such a character!
