Good, Good News!

Rusty went to her vet today for blood work. It's the very last thing we had to do as part of this summer's nuclear treatment. The blood panel results will be back tomorrow but today there was good, good news: Rusty has gained 4 lbs! Normally I wouldn't think that was good news for my little fatso but cats waste away when they have hyperthyroidism and when she began to lose weight, earlier, it was a sign something had to be done.

 

The vet and her two assistants each held Rusty for the procedure. She put her arms around each one of them. I think the fact that she isn't good at staying on the table might be why it's hard to get blood from her. I don't know ... I stay in the waiting room incase they hurt her. I don't want to see that.

 

When they brought her back to the waiting room they said how remarkably calm she'd been ... not like most cats they see. That's my girl.

 

I think I will go now and cut that yellow bandage off her leg. ;)
