Another day, another vet visit. We had a glucose monitor put on our cat Mushu, and the next day when I got home from work we noticed she removed it. We can try another one, but we know she will just remove it again, so we’re going back to just doing lab work. Hopefully her numbers look better and maybe we can stay on this insulin dose for her.
What animals make the best/worst pets?
Cats are the best, and I 100% know this because my cat Sky has been nonstop by my side while I’m recovering from my surgery. She has been the best at cuddling and making me feel calm. She also turned ten years old on 4/4, the day after I had my procedure! I just love her so much and I also have two other cats that I love as well!
On Thursday night I hit a patch of icy snow in my car which caused it to veer out of control and my tire went off the road and the control arm snapped. Luckily no airbags deployed and I was the only one involved and I am not injured. My car, however, has over $7000 of damage (thank goodness for insurance).
Today my cat woke my boyfriend and I up and he was acting weird, and he had thrown up twice. I ended up taking him into the vet because last time I thought something was wrong it escalated fast and he had high kidney counts and a urinary blockage. This time around his PH levels in his urine are high, but kidney levels are normal. He does have a urinary blockage again, but he’s doing better and we will just have him on a prescription diet the rest of his life. We will be able to bring him home tomorrow if all goes as planned.
So far this year has taken an interesting turn, but I am truly blessed that everyone is okay. Of course my pockets are hurting a bit (the vet bill is over $1000), but money is just money, and there are more important things to stress about. Luckily, I will be starting my new job soon and will be making more money so I can pay off my credit card again ASAP.
I’m trying to keep positive spirits with everything being thrown my way, but I do have my moments where it’s all a bit overwhelming. I just remind myself that we’re all human, I am allowed to feel that way.
