28Dec25: an improvement

Andy was investigating the front door scene when…
…he had an urge.
Yes, an urge for…
…Greenies!
I placed a few on top of the cottonwood chunk, where Andy helped himself.

=(^+^)=

After the first few days of starvation-level eating, which was both alarming and frustrating to me, Andy went to town last night. He came over to the ottoman, when eight, nine, ten times he ate several Greenies and took breaks to drink water.

Greenies aren’t meant to be anything more than an occasional treat, of course, but when Andy was barely tasting his wet food and occasionally eating a few pieces of the Royal Canin Persian dry food, it wasn’t life- sustaining.

(“Floofy” kitties look fat and sassy, even when they are shockingly thin.)

I worried for Andy’s life, frankly. If it was going to be up to Greenies to get him on track a m d keep him on track, so being it!

=(^×^)=

It concerned me that two medications – the two on the left – were put in his wet food, the wet food he barely touched.

I decided to try a different approach.

Mixing the powder from one, and the liquid from the other in a measured amount of water, the medicines were then
sucked into the syringe.

Shooting them into Andy’s mouth worked well, with very little spillage since the amount given was less than a kitty mouthful.
(The white one is for kidney support, and the green one is for liver support.)
