If you remember, we nearly lost Tony a month or so ago. Auto immune problem that affected his red blood cells. Thanks to our wonderful vet, Dr. Newman, we found the right antibiotic and steroid. His blood count is getting better (was 11 or 12 when diagnosed and now up to 22 -- still needs to get higher bu it's on the way). Then we had an issue with his right eye - conjunctivitis - on eye drops and improving. Anyway, here is the latest shot of the new and improved Tony. He sort of closed his right eye in this shot but you can see he's getting better and gaining weight.

Go, Tony!  :clap:   Great to hear this news, you must be so relieved!
Oh yes - so relieved and grateful. I still have that deep down fear that the infection will reoccur, but I guess with the right antibiotics we can keep it under control. Tony is 14 years old and I want to have him around for a long time!

What a handsome little guy! I'm so glad he's feeling better. Yay Tony! 


Vibes out that he continues to improve and stays healthy for a very long time once he gets there!
