It's been a long time since last blog entry...

 

I spent two weeks in New Zealand last December. I like it a lot. The nature is pretty well preserved. I think I'll go there again. Here is a picture I took when I was in the Fox Glacier area. It's been shortened by 5 km due to global warming.

 

 

I haven't processed any of the pictures I took in Auckland yet. I'll post some up very soon. Please forgive my laziness.

Stewie doesn't like taking pills, so I got him something called "Pill Pocket". Pill Pocket allows you to put a small pill inside and feed your cat as treat. He likes it at the beginning. However, he later found out that there was some "stuff" inside. From then on, he refuses to take the treat. Now I have to manually open his mouth to feed him medicine.

 

He's not gaining any weight. I try to give him something tastes good hoping he'll eat more. It's fluid night tonight. He's not going to be happy again. Last time the technicians at the Billings Bridge Animal Hospital took pictures of him when I brought him there for fluid. They think he is cute.

I brought Stewie to the animal hospital this morning. Dr. Chapman did the ultrasound scan for him. Of course, the bill is amazingly big. She said his heart may have problem because she heard some sound, but there is no immediate threat.

When I picked him up this evening, I waited for almost an hour. Dr. Chapman told me about the findings. However, more detail will be available only when the results of other tests come out. Stewie seemed to be very happy to see me there. When I put my finger into the carrier, he pushed his head fairly hard against my finger. This is how cats show association with someone or something.

Since his hair around his belly was removed for ultrasound scan, it feels really weird. Anyway, he feels good when he's home.

Stewie's Ultrasound scan appointment was cancelled because the doctor called in sick. He'll go get the scan tomorrow.

Stewie will get Ultrasound scan tomorrow so Dr. Jamieson will have a better idea how bad his kidney is.  Ultrasound scan for pets is not cheap, but this may help his treatment. So starting 9 pm tonight, Stewie can't eat any food. It's okay to drink water though. Tomorrow morning I'll leave him at the hospital, then pick him up in the evening.

 

He's been not very active since Saturday. Maybe he's still upset about getting another blood test. However, he was sleeping with me last night. As usual, he sleeps between my legs. It makes me almost impossible to turn, but I think it's fun.
