In the Leaves

Not much 'great' fall color in my yard yet, but Tikki still makes the restrained look work (I did saturate it a bit, forgive me). This isn't quite an "inside" something photo but it is definitely an "in" photo, and it's with the real camera (not the phone) and new, so adding for this week's Happy Caturday theme "Inside."

 

Tikki senior (14 years 8 months approximately) health update: Spoke with the vet. Basically, between March and September her blood test numbers went from no-kidney-disease and no-hyperthyroid to early stage 2 Kidney Disease and over the line to Hyperthyroid. So she has some underlying kidney problem uninvolved w the thyroid meds. (She's on kidney food now).

 

After a month on thyroid meds, her kidneys were only a little bit worse, and her thyroid numbers were good, so this is a good way to continue for now. She is not eligible for the 'will genuinely fix the thyroid' radioactive iodine treatment because that is hazardous to kidneys, which are already not doing well. I am supposed to take her in for a blood pressure test and will be planning that soon. Kidney disease: could be years, could be, much less.
