His face after the exciting call from the vet! |
Earlier tonight, Seamus was just chillin' on the floor when Baby came over. Baby was rooting around in Seamus's booty and Seamus swatted him in the face. I haven't seen Seamus assert himself like this in a long time. Little things like this have been happening which has put Baby back in his place. Baby had been going out of his way to attack and annoy Seamus for a little over a month now, but it seems to be winding down now. My sister has texted me with updates of them lying next to each other and licking each other. Of course, it turns into biting but at least they are having some good moments! Currently, they are both sleeping on the same cat tree. Granted, they're sleeping on different levels but I know they sense each others' presence.
Seamus is due back in to see the vet next week. I'm supposed to them bring him in every couple weeks/month. Man, I've done a complete 180 from just a week ago. Yesterday will be a week of dealing with this renal failure. I went from completely sobbing, drooling, and hiccuping to level-headed and calm. Sure, the idea that he has an issue and probably won't live out a full cat life and yes, that makes me incredibly sad and if I think about it too long, I start to cry about it. (Also, commas.) But for now, it's best to just be grateful for the quasi-healthy little guys that I have right now. I know tough times are ahead for sure. In the now is where I need to be. So that's where I'll try to be.
I would love to hear from any other owners out there with CRF companions! Positive suggestions and/or anecdotes are always welcome!
