Gracie is a pretty girl
for you and all the furbabies
You know, she sounds just like Tigger. Very talkative, and loved to sit right beside me all the time, but I never dared to pick her up!Originally Posted by Carolina
I think she is doing a little better... She has been eating normally, and loves being petted on her head.. Using the littebox like a good girl too! I am stopping by the vet to get her test results and some flea meds for everybody. Will start the scent exchange today. I plan to leave her in the bathroom for at least 2 weeks... But she doesn't look depressed - whenever I go in, she has these big bright eyes, and is very talkative. I think she will be happy here!

Whooo!!! A thousand blessings on your head, kiddo, for doing this!Originally Posted by Carolina
So..... My little old lady is in my bathroom since Monday, and I am glad to report she is doing GREAT!
I got her tests from the vet, and everything is on normal range, except for her thyroid, as expected, and her ALKP which is a little high 135, normal 14-111.
(sharky, sorry, I gave you old numbers)
One sad thing to see on her chart is that she lost 1.8lbs since March... It makes sense, since she's been out of her meds since April
But apparently putting back weight is not going to be a problem - she is an eating machine! She is eating 3 small cans of wet food, plus almost a cup of dry food a day!
She is showing no signs of stress at all, and is slowly becoming a sweetheart. I thought she was never going to want anything to do with me..... boy I was wrong! She is already giving me the belly!She loves to get pets and loving, and is very chatty!
The vet paperwork says she is 12 years old...
Her fur is a royal mess - she is very dirty, has poop stuck to her tail... I contacted a groomer that does in house services, I plan to have her groomed, flea bathed, and perhaps a lion cut
Tonight I am going to target to buy a bunch of washing cloths - she is starting to get curious about the door, it seems it is time to start the scent exchange. My plan is to do this very very slowly, only bring her out when she has completely transitioned into the other kitties' food too, so there is no tummy problems.
She is also PERFECT with the litterbox! Thank goodness!
Oh, now I totally think I did the right thing, I think she will be very happy here!
Thank you honOriginally Posted by AddieBee
