The State of the Intertext Household
- Jan. 12th, 2010 at 9:23 AM
Robinson is much brighter today, has eaten with good appetite, passed two good solid stools (sorry, TMI for non beardie people) and seems a fair bit happier, though he still is reluctant to walk too closely past Zoe. Someone threw up in the night, but I think it was Zoe (I heard it happening, and the tone of the coughing was hers rather than Robs'). She had been eating grass in the park, so I'm not totally surprised. I slept from 9:30 through to about 8:00am (except for being woken once by the sound of a dog vomitting) and feel a lot better. Today is my day at the "good" campus, where I'm teaching Literature today, so it's all good, as they say.
Tabitha passes through all of this with a blithe insouciance typical of cats (just for interest - google "spell insouciance" and see what turns up; I'm intrigued).

Is what R got metronidazole? If so, please watch him closely for neurological side effects. Also were his bloods normal (for him)?
Still worrying....a little :-)
R's bloods were normal, except for a slight elevation in the liver function, which originally my own vet said was not enough to worry about. And yes, it's metronidazole. I'll keep a close eye on him, but he seems fine at the moment.
They've both been good today, except Z seems quite subdued. R had a good supper and was very bright on his walk.
I'm worrying a little, too ... I love them both!
