Day 7 🐈‍⬛

Day 7 🐈‍⬛ 

Now Stitch has been with us for one week and I feel that we have met so many mile stones, it has been so exciting building our relationship. Today has been all about trying to make him well again though, and he is still a little mad with me for it. His eye is still very runny, and he has it closed most of the time. The eye drops were not popular at all, which is understandable. But then on top of it, we noticed some limping yesterday, and today it was a lot worse. We have been in contact with Sofia about this. I've seen it for some days, but it was so little then and I thought I might imagine it, until yesterday one of our friends noticed it too. Today you cannot deny it though. We have checked his paws, which today after the "big eyedrop abuse" was not as popular. But with some help from my partner and some soft cat snackies for distraction I looked as closely as I could manage and rubbed his paws with more of the vitamin d oil. I couldn't see any hairs poking him like Sofia suggested I look for, but they are quite dry still. His claws looked alright from what I could see as well. I'm a bit worried for him and we are wondering if you have any other ideas, or if he should be checked? I will send you a video of his limping so you can see what it looks like. Together with the red swollen  eye he is one poor little guy đŸ„Č

I can tell when he jumps up the sofa or windowsill that his back legs give away a little when he tries to push himself up. We are really confused. He has been very calm and not not really done anything "athletic" that we can think of to hurt himself and cause a limp like this.

This was his eye two days ago. This morning he still had some dry stuff around it but it was looking better.

Sofia gave him this once two days ago. She gave us this and another pipette just for washing the eye. yesterday we only washed his eye with the other one. This morning we washed it and then gave him some of the comfort shield eye drops.



Katie:
Ok. Kikki says since it has color that its an infection and comfort shield wont help. Im asking her if we should book a vet appointment for him.
And i can take hom, just so you know. Its our responsibility during the test period to care for him

This should help his eye

PopulÀra inlÀgg i den hÀr bloggen

Vi Àr ikapp!

Ok, sÄ alla tidigare inlÀgg innan detta har varit utdrag frÄn meddelandekonversationer jag hade med katthemmet under Stitchs första tid hos oss. Tyckte det vore kul att ha det lite samlat som minnen av hans först tid hÀr. Kommer uppdatera med bilder och videor som saknas allteftersom med, men slÀngde iaf upp det lite grovt nu sÄ det blir gjort. Nu tÀnker jag att den hÀr bloggen skall bli lite som min egen kattdagbok, för att hÄlla lite koll pÄ Stitchs utveckling. SÄ i princip samma format som inlÀggen tidigare, men riktat mot mig sjÀlv och inte Katie frÄn katthemmet. Utöver det som vi vet frÄn tidigare inlÀgg har lite mer saker skett som jag vill tillÀgga. TrÀning med sele Stitch har blivit trÀnad i sele och koppel. Till en början sÄ gick han vÀldigt konstigt i sin sele. Men nu gÄr han jÀttefint och naturligt. Han tycker till och med om att ha den pÄ sig och börja spinna nÀr man tar fram den (helt klart för att han vet att han kommer fÄ massor med godis dÄ han har pÄ sig den men haha)....

Day 11 😾

Day 11 😾 stitch is a changed cat! His paws look so much better now and his eyes too. Still a bit infected in one of them but he opens both. He has been strutting around all day with barely any limp. Also instantly started climbing and jumping down from things. Previously he didn't dare to jump anywhere and would stall and need help or find a way to step down slowly. He has more confidence and was more explorative and very playful today. He loves his little tunnel and toys and is so cute peeking out with his lil face đŸ„č played several times and started training him some tricks today as he is very snackie oriented. We are looking forward to when he is completely well and the eye poking and all can cease. He is very tolerant but we can tell he is getting a bit frustrated with it. Still he is the most sweet and loving cat and just wants to be close at nearly all times and we feel so lucky to have him with us ♥️

Stitch Update day 2. 🐈‍⬛

Stitch Update day 2. 🐈‍⬛ Took a while for him to leave the bed this morning but then he was back to his snuggly self. Only got a little spooked by an ambulance outside at one point at which he scooted back under the bed poor thing. Stitch is a little angel and really loves people. 😆 My bf Janne's brother came over a short while and they were besties right away ❤️ let him cary him around like a purring baby and looked like a little king in heaven with all the attention 😂 In the evening he finally played a little bit! đŸ„łHe was not interested in any of the toys but a piece of string was apparently it.
