Tayet's back, with more drugs!
Nov. 3rd, 2007 03:19 pmLooks like he's been having trouble due to a couple of kidney stones, trying to leave the kidney.
So, he's home and on a shitload of drugs, but should be OK. We go in on Wednesday to have a check up for the surgeries, and will probably have another ultrasound done to check on his kidney the same day - of course we need to schedule that...on Monday. Here's hoping.
We've dealt well with our varied pet's illnesses with fairly good grace, including the insane period of lipidosis, where we had to force feed every 8 hours and medicate every 12 - without ever the two meeting, without really having any massive problems. (Not that we were fun to be around sleep deprived as we were...)
This time, it's a problem. It's two drugs every 8 hours, for five days.![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
dthon works far, far away, and while I'm home all day, it takes two to medicate and cage him. Hey, my VET called and asked if I could pill my own cat, and when I said yes, she said "I am thoroughly impressed, got any tips?" so it's not like I'm a big weenie - he's just that fucking difficult. Now if it was a needle, that I could do by myself. So we're trying to figure out some way to get Tayet his meds, dthon to and from work and still get sleep...
It's just not pretty here. Not at all.
