Teia update 19 May 17

Teia has been having a little trouble peeing.  She has eaten  and drunk water normally, been social, grooms, even wants Outside time...

Had her at the vet last week, got an antibiotic shot.

Just back from the vet, wanted to get more tools into the diagnosis, ultrasound was performed.  No Stones, NO Tumors!

Looks like the antibiotic shot last week knocked back the UTI, but did not eliminate it.
Now, the joy of trying to get her to take antibiotic at home, start tomorrow, she got 1st dose at the office
.
Doc said we could crush the 1/4 tabs and mix it with fish oil to squirt in her mouth.

While they had her in the ultrasound cradle, she got a Spa Day, got a manicure and pedicure for the 1st time.
Vet tech said Teia was even purring at one point.

Looks like I am well recovered from last week's episode, got back from Dr Shah's office about 3:30 PM and then brought Teia to the vet.

All my blood counts are normal, including the platelets (which has been a long time coming). They were 201,000, low end is 150,000...they were 99,000 a month ago when I last had a blood draw for Dr Shah.

Will get the full blood chemistry report in a day or so.

Teia has 1 liver and 2 kidney numbers that are a little elevated, but Dr Bennett said kitties withstand that better than dogs or people, their desert cat origins. All other numbers were good.

P.S.  No stones, no tumors and a spa day!  Wonderful although she's surely mad at you?!?

She's been a lap kitty, much more quick to forgive the older she's gotten.

She even came upstairs this morning for the 1st time in nearly a year.

Hey Pip.

  Well I know you said Miss Teia is not a pillable cat so I'm assuming she's not great with liquids so how's it going?  I thought I read you used Convenia?  Maybe I'm out of sync with the timeline again?  

Blessings to All,
   Melinda

The pills crush well and she's been eating the medicine mixed with her food.

The new antibiotic is a follow on to the Convenia.  She seems to almost like her ear cream.
