I took our kitty to the vet....

We have an almost 13 year old black tabby (he's on my blog) Anyway, he'd been limping around for the past week and a half and I kept talking to dh about taking him, but we really don't/didn't have the money. I just couldn't stand it anymore, and had to take him in. I am so glad that I did. He has pneumonia, poor thing, but the vet is hopeful that he will get better and gave him a shot, told us to start giving him only wet cat food and he wants to see him again in two weeks. Anyway, I'm sorry that I waited so long, but glad that I finally took him. The limping is just due to the pneumonia and old age, but should get better.

Awwww, poor kitty! We have a very old kitty too. He will be 16yo later this year. He looks good for his age, and is pretty good health, but he sleeps a LOT and doesn't seem to tolerate the winter weather as well as he once did. He's always been an outdoor kitty, but lately I've been letting him in a lot. Right now he's lying in a chair near the heater, snoozing.

Here is a link to a picture of him taken this past spring: http://i140.photobucket.com/albums/r11/ecmom/Kitty0407.jpg

Here is a link to a picture of him sleeping in our school room: http://i140.photobucket.com/albums/r11/ecmom/DSCN4689.jpg
Yes, he often sleeps on his back with one eye open! :p

I hope your kitty feels better very soon!
