Blokey went back to work yesterday so you can imagine how happy he is.  Tomorrow he has a clinic appointment and *fingers crossed* his creatinine will be practically 'normal'.  He forgot to take his tablets on Sunday night, despite me saying to him, Have you taken your tablets? and him replying, Well d'uh! Of course!  We've decided that next time I ask he has to humour me and just check!

 ;D

Well, duh! Of course he does!

I keep checking to see if Mog cat has returned.  :'(

If Mog returns you'll be one of the first to know because I'll be announcing it joyously on Fb, probably complete with pictures of a happy reunion!

The patient, the baby and the donor - October 2010

I just read through this whole thread, and I am glad your hubby is feeling better.

As for Mog, my parents had a cat, Mr. Chipps, and Mr. Chipps ran off one day and we couldn't find him. We assumed he had gotten eaten by a coyote, but 2 months later my brothers friend said she had seen him at another friends house. Apparently, he decided he liked living in someone elses garage, miles away. We brought him home, cleaned him up and he never took off again. Hopefully Mog is just hanging around with some new friends. I have found in all my years of owning cats, male cats tend to have the most wanderlust.
