It's a big deal to me that my cat is back upstairs with me -
She has been sick, my feisty Calico.
She has been sick, my feisty Calico.
I came back from a weekend in New York in July
To my cat, who couldn't help but have bathroom accidents.
Turns out she's allergic to the food she had been on,
As seen in her yeasty ears,
And she has pancreatitis,
Which has been the big issue of concern.
She got meds, new hydrolyzed protein cat food,
And plenty of nights in the basement -
She refused to use the litter box I brought to my room,
So she couldn't stay, to my dismay.
Finally last night she was able to stay up again!
Her pancreas is no longer inflamed,
Per when she last saw the vet a few weeks ago,
And she is now weaned off the steroid Prednisolone.
I cannot fully express the joy it brings me
That she was there all night,
Seemingly healthy and eating her new food -
The second one I had to get her as she refused the first.
I want as much time as I can with this 14-year-old girl,
The third I have called my baby,
The one God specifically gave to me to take care of and love,
And I cherish the time I have with her. ❤
