Suture free!… almost..

Lloyd had nearly all his sutures removed today. The rest are coming out on Thursday and then he’ll be collar free! Can’t eait!

He is getting a lot more confident with chasing the feather on the fishing rod although he does still prefer to do so from the safety of his tent.

He’s still keen to get outside but that isn’t happening yet, it’s been a long time since he last went out and I’m definitely concerned about letting him out despite the assurances from the vet that three legged cats do fine outdoors. Got to escape-proof the garden first and even then I think he’ll only be allowed out when we are out there too. Couldn’t bare something else happening to him after all he has been through.

He is still having problems going to the toilet. Perhaps worse than before which we think could be to do with the Metacam. He’s off that as of today and weening off the Gabapentin which means he’ll be med free!! Yaaay!! And hopefully he’ll settle into a regular pooping routine, finally. It’s been 3 days now. He last went on Saturday night after having gone at the vets. He’s still on Lactulose and having food with pumpkin in too to try and encourage things along. Looking forward to getting this problem sorted as it worries me a lot.

Off somewhere as a surprise for my birthday tomorrow so Lloydy is having a sleepover with his Nana/Auntie Jackie who is going to come and stay with him for us. I am currently stocking up all my Lloyd cuddles on the sofa in preparation for being without him for the night.

Whatever works for you Lloydy

  1. Look at you Lloyd! Bounding around like nothing ever happened. You’re such a rock star!

    Hope you had a happy birthday Joanne, what a gift to have your boy on a path to healing. Now if that pooping issue could be straightened out, you’ll be set. How’s it going now?
