Snoopy

Snoopy continues to improve in my opinion. Of course, her bloodwork has not yet shown that the hyperthyroidism is under control. Her medication has increased from .5 ml a day to 1.5 ml. a day. We go back in a couple of weeks for another set of blood tests. I hope that the levels will be down this time. So far we have had no trouble dosing her, but I suspect that if we increae the dosage much more she will begin to taste the medicine in her food.
We have to give it to her in one dose so maybe if we need to increase we could split it between morning and evening.
But, as I said, her behavior is much more normal. She is no longer terrified of Sakarua. And she is much braver about walking around the house much like she did when we had the other two cats.
I'm not sure how much longer she will hang on. She moves slowly, and she is beginning to need another haircut. But her appetite is good and she plays like a kitten most days. So for now all is good.
