So I have been so worried about his kidneys I wanted him to reduce the prednisone. Apparently those side effects I was not seeing (weight gain and over-eating) were diminishing. So I just watched him war with me about food for a whole day and went back to the full dose.
Today he is so much more himself.
He loves to go outside and watch the birds. The dove circles him and the two mocking birds that eat his leftovers watch, he watches back. I have not had much luck of recent days doing much but sitting outside, but he does think the same kibble is tastier out there.
I keep reading about acclimating pets to new food. It seems he literally cycles. One day he only likes treats. One day it is the fake steak red bits in the kitten food. One day the green ones. I swear, he is messing with me!
So, because he has a foot stool near the window but likes to sleep on the electric blanket all day (on) I saw a little sort of an electric muff in the Walgreens and put it on his glass viewing table with a (yes, I have one) Snuggy, all folded up to allow me to unplug and possibly save a bit of fear and electricity.
He is good today.
I am ok too!
