Hi all
I was just going to make a thread about how lovely it is to come inside after being rained on (it's finally started raining here in SF), turn on the heat, pout on some warm dry clothes, and sit at the puter with a warm purry cat in your lap
Then I realized I haven't updated about Wonton in a while, so I thought I'd do both in this thread.
Wonton is good
He hasn't had a major freakout since he started Prozac. He isn't what I'd call 100% yet, but he is SO much better that I've decided to continue with the Prozac and see how it goes. Rick and I are also making a point to read his body language, and we've discovered that if his pupils go big and he starts sniffing intently, it's a good sign he's thinking of attacking, so before he can get into that mode, we pick him up and put him in the other room for a "time out". This has only been necessary once or twice since he started Prozac-before it was almost daily.
He's not nearly as jumpy as he used to be, and he just seems more laid-back in general. I'm hoping he'll improve a bit more as time goes by.
As for rainy days - I got soaked walking to the corner store for a sandwhich (turkey and avocado, it was delicious), but I came back, put on a sweater, turned on the heat, and then Wonton asked to get in my lap. He's curled up right now, and he makes a really nice hot water bottle ...and he's softer
Just thought I'd update for anyone who was curious. It might seem wierd, or silly to some people, to have a cat on Prozac, but hey - it's working
