Good afternoon, Cafe!

It's a great day, indeed. Grandbaby is out one month and one day early. Mom and baby are doing fine! 6#1oz. Can't wait to meet the little munchkin They will get to come home this weekend.

Good morning Cafe. Coffee is ready.

I never gave an update on Mogwai after her appointment when I thought she was in renal failure. Her blood work came back good. But she'd gone from 6.5 pounds to 5.1 pounds as of 12/22. We tried Hill's Science Diet AD and ID and the vet discussed trying 2.5 mg of famotidine (Pepcid AC) to help with her stomach. At first I thought it was helping but she inevitably started throwing up her food again. She sleeps a lot but does not appear to be in pain. Purrs. Enjoys laying with you.
But she is now down to 4.8 pounds. That's the equivalent to a 130 pound person dropping to 97 pounds. The vet suggested doing an ultrasound but to what end? If something was found, it's not like she could have surgery at her age.
I'm wrestling with all this. I don't feel she's suffering but do feel she will, and soon, if she can't get some weight on and keep her food down. She'll start having organ failure. I think I need to just make the appointment and let her go. I just don't know when exactly.

I'm sorry to hear about Mogwai, Tonya. Awfully painful to watch them go downhill.

Hoping CS gets out sooner than later.

Good evening Cafe. Lovely sunny day here and above 10C.
Vet visit for this chap tomorrow. He's got an infection in his foot pad. He had one a few months ago which cleared up.
Early bed for me. I don't think I'll need an alarm clock.

Thank you, Perris! We're very excited.

We've got 40 calves on the ground, now. Here is Fionas' baby (she is a chewy baby). She was AI'd to a highlander.

ETA: phone isn't at smart as it thinks!
