Boo has his Epogen all ready at the pharmacy, but I can't get it until Friday. I didn't realize it also went under the names Procrit and Epoetin .. in any case, it's 53 bucks and hopefully I will be able to pick it up Friday, and also will be taking Boo by to see her to show me how to inject and use the Epogen. He's been doing very well. I caught him making a poo earlier this morning, and it was just the most beautiful little poo
Was a big one tho!
Now Chickster is getting irritated when I touch her hiney, and she has NOT pooped so I am wondering about giving her a touch of miralax. She is eating the Purina One, but won't eat wet food.
Anyway, Boo's doing great. He almost won't come out of that tent and hollers for me to come upstairs to sit here in the comp chair beside him. Moving the tent on my bed did NOT work and he went back to the empty corner and sat there looking around, waiting. So, my feelings are hurt, but I'll get over it. At least I can see him in the tent from here.
Sub-q's didn't go so well, it's been butter for the past few days, but today I caught the worst of several places. The first place was fine, I thought, until he started growling so loudly that I immediately stopped. Barely got anything in there. It was the fourth stick that finally worked.
Anyone had experience with that feeling like you've gone between skin layers instead of UNDER the skin? Like maybe you're between 2 and 3 or 1 and 2 instead of UNDER 3?, and if you move it around, you'll feel the needle sort of pop or move out of something? It wasn't in a muscle, bone or lung or anything, it was something in his skin. Perhaps I am not going in at enough of an angle? I noticed once or twice that I was going in a bit too horizontally.
Anyway. Things are really good right now. Just hoping that I can get that Epogen on Friday. Thank you all so much <3 <3
And the World's Best Cat Litter works like a CHARM. I am so AMAZED. It may be 18 bucks for a bag, but it's lasted me, what, nearly a month? I was having to buy a 28 lb bag of clay litter every 2 weeks, for 4 pans, and that stuff gets heavy when it's wet not to mention it ruined the entire room with dust.
This stuff is light. Only con is if you leave it in a bag (I save up 2 used bags then throw them away, sometimes I am lazy) they get condensation in them and start smelling spoiled. (I use grocery plastic bags, so they don't seal nicely all the time)
Was interesting to me. Poop is even worse. Like the worst curdled milk you could ever imagine. In any case. Things are great right now!!! I Wish it was not 91 degrees outside or I'd take him out, and he didn't feel like going out this morning (Went straight to his tent)
