Lucy is much brighter today and is playing in and out of her tunnel. However getting the meds down her throat is getting to be a bit problem now she is very fiesty!!
.
.I am taking her back to the see the v-e-t lady who I usually see for them this afternoon and hope she can change the meds to tablet form or slow release injection as my hands and I are losing the battle with syringing the different ones in to her.
.
We would like to thank everyone for their kind messages - I will get round to replying to you all soon.

Oh, Lucy!
ReplyDeleteWe are so glad to hear that you are doing better, we hope you are feeling happier today.
Poor you, having to take those horrible meds!
I am so glad Lucy is on the mend. We will purr for her until she is all better!
ReplyDeleteWe are really glad to hear that Lucy is a little better. Hopefully the vet can give you some new kind of medicine that is easier. We are still crossing our paws for you Lucy and big hugs to Mom. We know she is a wreck. Take care.
ReplyDeleteWe're glad you're doing better, Lucy! We hope you can get an easier med to take too. What about pill pockets, if your mum gets pills? We hear they work for some kitties. Good luck! *Kitty kisses* from us and big smooches from our mom!
ReplyDeleteP.S. Derry and mom thank you very much for adding the auction graphic to your sidebar!
We are delighted that Lucy is doing better and hope your vet can come up with an easier to dispense medication.
ReplyDeleteWe're happy Lucy is feeling better. We sure hope the vet can come up with another way to give her meds. We get pills mostly...liquid meds always end up more on mom than in us!!
ReplyDeleteWe're still purring for Lucy.
Oh Lucy! You MUST get better. We have been a bit lax with visiting and had no idea you weren't feeling well. We purray there is a different form of meds that you can take. We need you better girl~!!!
ReplyDeleteSo happy to hear Lucy is feeling better! Hope you can get a different kind of medicine for her that is easier on you both!
ReplyDeleteChecking in to see how Lucy is doing. Hope she continues to get better. I bet the vet can help you out with the medicine change. Will keep Lucy in my purrrs and good thoughts.
ReplyDeleteOh sweet and feisty Lucy!!! You are incredible!! Yay that you are feeling better and even playing with your tunnel!!! But you must be nice to mum and get her to syringe the meds into you! Oh dear!!
ReplyDeleteDear mum Sue! Me and Charlie appreciate the difficulties!! We hope your vet will find substitutes for these syringed meds that you can at least mix with food or something like that!! I can never understand how vet science has not created tablet/liquid meds that are palatable/edible/taste yummy or meds that are so super tasty the kitties/doggies will be lapping them up! LOL!
Awwww but it's great to hear that Lucy is doing better than she was over the weekend!!!
Hugs to her and mum and lovely Hannah too! Take care

I am happy to hear that Lucy is doing better, we were worried!!! Hopefully you can get some meds that are easier to administer. My boys are sending you lots of love and purrs Lucy :-)
ReplyDeleteSo glad Lucy is better now and I hope you get an easy medication.
ReplyDeleteWhen Fin would voice her complaints about being grabbed Hubby managed to squeeze the meds right in. It was a miracle.

Oh, dear, we didn't realize Lucy was not feeling well. We are happy to hear she is feeling better and we are purraying that she will soon be A-OK. We love you girls.
ReplyDeleteWe hope you get better soon Lucy, we are sorry to hear that you are sick.
ReplyDeleteYour Mama could wrap you in a comfy towel to give you your meds...it will make you feel all snuggly.
proud to be your newest followers...
Love, Cody and Caren
Hurrah! Lucy, we were sooo worried about you. We are 13 tails up for you being fiesty!
ReplyDeleteBut, you HAVE to take your medicines. They make you well, so please don't fight too much.
Just enough to show your Mum who's boss.
Kissies!
Miss Lucy, we're so glad to hear you're doing better. Getting pilled is No Fun, but we hope you're able to get all of the medicine in you so you'll be all better soon!
ReplyDeleteYour friends, Fuzzy and Zoe
Oh, we did not know that Lucy was not feeling well! We send our purrs that she is feeling better soon!
ReplyDeleteDon't worry about replying to us, just take care of that sweet Lucy! I am so glad to hear she is doing a bit better.
ReplyDeleteI'm so happy to finally see an update on Lucy! And to know she's doing much better!
ReplyDeleteEat your meds, Lucy! :)
Poor Lucy, we are so sorry you have been poorly. Now, that Antepsin, in liquid form tastes really bad to us cats. Our Angel used to have to have it for reflux and she hated it. We then found out that it comes in pill form and doesn't taste of anything much. So Angel would get her dose of Antepsin as a crushed up pill in water, then syringed. If she was really not in the mood for syringing, the pill got crushed into her fuuds. Maybe Xantac tastes horrid too? Might be a crushable pill for that one as well.
ReplyDeleteWe send Lucy lots of rumbly purrs and hope she continues to feel much better!

PS: One cat swallow = no more than 1ml of liquid at a time. Any more than 1ml per shot and it can make us gag and hate the syringe even more :)
Way to go, Lucy. Keep getting better. But take your meds!
ReplyDeleteWe at Kitty City wish you the best, both our cats were hit by cars this last summer and are only now just getting better. Much love and hugs,

Feisty is good but taking your medicine is important. We're glad you're feeling better! We'll keep purring.

ReplyDeleteWe are all so glad you are feeling better and we hope that the Vet has a pill that they can give you instead of the liquid.
purrin

That's a relief that Lucy is doing better! Let us know what happens at the vet's this afternoon!
ReplyDeleteGlad she is doing better...still sending purrs!
ReplyDeleteWe are happy to hear Lucy is better today. Sending healing purrs ...
ReplyDeleteWE are glad Lucy is on the mend, great news.
ReplyDeleteI am glad there is improvement and it looks as though Lucy is on the mend. Mum says she knows just how you feel about the meds as she can get none down me.. Sending you purrs.. Hugs GJ xx
ReplyDeleteDon't concern yourself with returning comments right now. The most important thing is to get Lucy well. I'm so happy to hear that she's doing better and feeling scrappy enough to give you trouble.
ReplyDeleteWe hope the positive upturn to good health continues.
Glad to hear Lucy is feeling a bit better. How about a sturdy pair of gardening gloves to help with administering the meds without bloodshed? :-) Fat Eric was always very easy to give meds to but his late sister Hattie was terrible, when she was having twice daily pills it involved two humans and towels and wrestling and lots of bad words!
ReplyDeleteOh we are so sorry to read that Lucy has been sick. We are glad she is feeling better and we are sending over tons of purrs and prayers for her. And I can sympathize about trying to get her to take her meds - Kirzon is terrible about it. I wish you good luck with that and hope you can get pills or a shot for her!
ReplyDeleteWe are so glad to hear that Lucy is getting better. We will continue to purr and pray!
ReplyDeleteThat's good news - except for the struggles, that is!
ReplyDeleteI am glad that Lucy is feeling feisty enough to fight her meds, but sympathize with medicating an unwilling cat. Herman would take his little, almost tasteless pills in a pill pocket willingly, until I made the mistake of putting one of his larger, nasty tasting pills in one, then he wouldn't touch a pill pocket again for anything. I wish you the best of luck and hope and pray for Lucy to get well soon. Herman sends healing purrs.
ReplyDeleteI´m glad for Lucy!!!!
ReplyDeleteKisses to you and every family!!!
