With so many comforting and healing purrs received, Tommy is getting better and says 'thank you'. Skin has formed on those sores on the legs. The ones on his face will take a longer time.
As EJ is a vegetarian due to allergy, the cats usually eat kibbles. Occassionally wet canned food is given as a treat or to entice as well as reward an unwell cat in taking medication.
EJ found out that Tommy possibly could not eat fish. He vomitted when fish was given with his antibiotics. EJ tried the same thing again the next day, Tommy vomitted again. From then on Tommy took his antibiotics after eating the usual kibbles; no vomit. So Tommy do not need food treats.
He wanted something else. He want to rest and relax comfortably.
Wearing the E-collar, resting on the chair seems to be his favourite. The chair is also Cinders' favourite.
Inspite of the squeeze with the E-collar taking up more space, Tommy was relaxed enough to cross his legs.
With Cinders, who is 16 going on 17, pushing intruding Tommy back, he still kept his crossed-legs position.
Tired of sleeping uncomfortably, Cinders left. Finally Tommy got what he wanted...and splayed across two chairs.
Woof Tommy! Those sores look like 'hot spots' to me. I had those and Keeper just applied something and its gone in two days! The vet said it could be somebody peed on me and it dried up. Keeper said I should not get too close to the black hounds because they always "mark' their territory. The good thing I did not have to wear the dreaded e-collar! But you look good on them although at first glance you look 'headless'!
ReplyDeleteHey Tommy,

Oh tommy we hope you feel better soon!
ReplyDeleteCody had a sore on his head that wouldn't go away and we put him on a diet of rabbit...canned and dry...he can eat nothing else.
The sore has cleared up....every now and then it will come back very, very tiny but clears right up.
I hope you can get that cone off soon Tommy! We called Cody "Space Boy" when he had to wear his!
Love, Caren and Cody
Tommy, I hope you get to feeling better soon...then you can ditch the hood! Please be nice to your sister...she's tolerating a lot from you; don't push your luck!
ReplyDeleteEJ, My mom said thank you for your advice today. Now she know she need first aid kit box for me. You always look after us. Thank you : )
ReplyDeleteHope you're feeling better Tommy, at least you got what you wanted in the end :O)
ReplyDeleteHello!I am glad that you are getting better...
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos!
Cats usually get what they want in the end that is for sure.
ReplyDeleteIt's sad to see our beloved pets with infirmities. I wish yours healing and health. Getting old is hard for our four legged friends and for us as well. I've had a month of ill health, spent a few days in the hospital and wasn't really able to celebrate Thanksgiving in style!
ReplyDeleteHi Tommy, spero che tu riesca a guarire molto presto... vedo che anche tu indossi il "cappello", la mia mamma finalmente me lo ha tolto perchè le ho fatto vedere che non mi gratto sull'occhio.
ReplyDeleteIl cappello è così fastidioso....
ti capisco perfettamente !!!!
Tanti baci :))
Igor ( e dalla mia mamma )
