Sir Thomas of Purralot.

   I have not wanted to blog as Thomas has not been doing as well as I had hoped.  He is still not gaining weight and the vets are baffled by the lack of clues from the blood work up they did.  I am sure the vets, and Dawn are as frustrated as me.  They thought his issue might be hyper-thyroid,  he is fine.  They then tested for Valley Fever - nope.  They are just at a loss about what to do about him, and it might very well be cancer.
   He is still Sir Thomas of Purralot (okay, yes, the title seems to be getting longer - but very appropriate), and purrs if you look at him.   Still loves to put the top of his head in my hand and just hang out like that.  His favorite, however, is putting his entire head under my chin and falling asleep.  I can tell when he drops off to dreamland because then, and only then, does he stop purring.

  I went today to pick up more Amoxi, and some canned food at Deer Creek Vet Clinic and...WOW, it was an open house.  Such cute kitties and puppies dressed in Halloween outfits (I was giddy over all the adorable babies - photos to come).  The  high calorie canned food was a big hit, with the entire household.  It is VERY strong smelling and brought the other cats out from their individual sleeping areas to suggest in loud pleading voices that it should be food I set down for them.  They were very unhappy, when I walked passed them (they never gave up hope though) and walked into Thomas's room.  He was very happy with the choice and began eating it before I could get it to the floor.  Good kitty, eat.  Okay got to go clean litter boxes.
