Here is Cupid in his little hidden corner, sleeping comfortably. He has begun to chafe against his forced stay in the kitchen but I must keep him away from the other Puttikins for another day or two. This morning at 3.00 a.m., when I visited the kitchen, he immediately trotted towards me to complain that he was both hungry and bored.
He eats very little but would consume all the catnip treats if I allowed it. It is REAL food that does not interest him that much. He will eat pureed chicken from my fingers and a few mouthfuls of tinned food but his appetite still is not as healthy as I would wish. I am giving him fluids subcutaneously and he continues to inundate the litter box with clear, healthy urine but I was very distressed because I never saw him drink either water or chicken broth that I had placed in some bowls I bought recently.
Today I discovered that he returns instead to the horrid old water bowls I intended to chuck out for his water. I made certain to fill the double bowl with fresh water, even though I left the new bowls out in the open for him. Cats are such creatures of habit!
I would like to thank every one who expressed concern for my little boy. Your thoughts and prayers meant a great deal to me and I cannot help but feel they made a real difference.
