Tummy, Tail, Toesies and an Update on Tuesday.

We are getting lots of storm force wind, so I have decided the best place to be is on the bed.

There is a nice sun puddle here for me to enjoy.

It gives me chance to show off my tummy, tail and toesies again.

I have to make the most of the sun before the rain comes back.

Here's a bonus for you of my pink paw pads.

UPDATE:
Mum hasn't given an update lately as every time things start well, then it goes wrong again. We have been afraid of jinxing things but lots of you have been asking how I am doing.
I was doing all right on the transdermal gel but after a few days I started to go downhill again getting lethargic and sick.
Mum had ordered holistic Thyroid Gold Support  for me. The first day I ate my food with the drops on it. The second day I wouldn't touch it, so she mixed them with water and gave in a syringe. I was sick afterwards. The same thing happened on the third day and I was violently sick and I had stopped eating again.
It seems that even though it is a natural product that I can't take that either.

I went back to see my vet last Monday and even though I was eating very little, I had put a very small amount of weight on. He checked my heart and said it sounded good. That is the problem with not being on thyroid medication, it can put a strain on my heart and lead to heart failure. Kidney failure can also result from untreated hyperthyroidism. I am being monitored for both but didn't have to get my blood stolen this time.
My mum caught a pee sample from me and that is showing blood again and also high white blood cell count.
My vet wanted to put me on antibiotics but knows how mum feels about them after taking the others in the beginning, and also the convenia injection which she is sure is what made me so very ill.
He suggested to her that I go on oxytetracycline tablets and watch carefully for any adverse effects. I have been on them for 8 days now and my poops are getting better. They do give me wind when I get in the litter box though, so everyone knows what I am doing.
I am also on a low dose of prednisolone to help any inflammation in my gut, and he said sometimes they can also put weight on and make me want to eat which would be good in my case.
Mum weighed me again at the weekend and I had put a little bit more weight on and am now exactly 11 pounds. I had gone down to under 10 pounds when I was at my worst around Christmas.
I always used to be a fit 15 - 16 pounds and we know I will never get back to that, but any weight increase is good.
I am much livelier too and go for short walks when the weather is good. I do tire easily, but maybe one day I will be able to go on longer walks around the fields again. I have my paws crossed that I continue to feel better and am asking you to keep your paws crossed for me too.

Tummy, Tail and Toesies Tuesday.

I went for my T4 blood test on Monday to see where the level is now I have been off thyroid pills for just over 2 weeks. Mum should get the results by this evening and will update when she gets them. We are hoping it will only be slightly raised so I can stay off them.
In the meantime you can admire my tummy tail and toesies.

Tummy, Tail and Toesies Tuesday.

My tummy:  Do you mind? I was about to have my bath.

 My tail:  Looks like I will just have to get on with it.

More Tail:  I'm sure you wouldn't want me taking your photo when you bath.

My toesies:  I will just ignore you.

Okay bath time is over. You can take the flashy box away now.

Hang on dad, it's supposed to be Tummy Tuesday, not tickle tummy.

Never mind, we will just have to have a tail and toesies instead.

Tummy, Tail and Toesies Tuesday and Awards.

Here's my tummy.......

and here's my tail and toesies with a little bit more tummy.

Mum has not been helping me to post my awards so I told her we had to catch up.
I got the "Opposites Attract award from Nellie
First, you need to thank the blogger who gave you the Opposites Attract Award and link back to their blog. Thank you Nellie for my lovely award.
Secondly, you need to post the award on your blog, which I have done.
And thirdly, you need to pass the award along to at least one other
blogger. The mancats pass it on to a lady cat and the lady cats pass it on to mancats, so I would like to pass it on to Madi, and to Sweet Pea at the Katnip Lounge and to Ms. Stella O'Houligan.

I also got the Super Sweet Blogging Award from the Cat Realm and from the Florida Furkids. Thank you to both for giving me this award. I am supposed to pass it on to a baker's dozen blogs but I have been slow posting it so I am sure most have had it by now.

I also had The Best Kitty Blogger Award from Little Binky. Mum was really bad at getting this one posted for me as I had it over 2 months ago. Thank you Little Binky.
