sleeping on cat time
thanks everyone who has written with their support. it means a lot to me.
i woke on cat time this morning. not for any reason that i could find. i was just awake at 5am.
he was sleeping in the hall when i went to look for him. well, not sleeping, he was awake, but that's where he spent the night. he followed me back into the living room, where i'm sleeping now, and climbed on the sofa with me, and start gnawing my hand.
which is moses for, "i'm hungry."
we did subcutaneous fluids yesterday which is probably why his appetite has rebounded. dr. c said that getting him to eat is the most important thing right now. all day yesterday i brought him tempting things-- chicken stock, baby food, and wet cat food. he consumed everything i brought him. he loves baby food. and i think it helps if he doesn't have to expend the energy to get to the food.
mom is coming by this morning with dan. i was supposed to be joining them and going to atlanta, but of course i won't be doing that now. they are going to pick up a few things to take to stuart in his new place, and say goodbye to moses.
J is coming tonight. the puppy will be staying the weekend at the puppy spa so moses can have peace and quiet and have his house to himself. i would love to have reese here, but J and i both agree that that's probably not what the moses needs right now.
