I went to visit Radar earlier this evening - he has been on IV fluids and looked more like normal (other than being very thin).
He was really pleased to see me - practically flung himself on me and shoved his little head in my face. We had purry cuddles for about 3 minutes before his attention shifted and he was looking at the ward over my shoulder and trying to get out of his ward cage, this made me happy because that is Radar all over. So I only had a short visit with him as he was getting a bit excited and clearly wanted to use the opportunity to make a break for it.
He ate a small amount of food before my arrival
and I took in a selection of his favourite pouches of food.
I'm feeling a bit happier and more positive now I have seen him alert and with mischief in his eyes

So glad he's getting better. Much love.I went to visit Radar earlier this evening - he has been on IV fluids and looked more like normal (other than being very thin).

If Mr Peanut says It's okay, then it is.
Black face from the colony ( on the mat) has been missing since before Christmas. I was on my way to feed her and a massive white cat was near killing her. Found her yesterday and she is limping with a chunk out of her neck 
. Trying to nab her to get her to the vets. Stripey (having a peep in on the right)stripey face and cartoon head are currently living outside my front door in a modified /waterproof cat carrier.
The gardener's supposedly in charge of the cats don't give a flying fuck, and I'm getting angrier by the day. Some posh old twat actually said, well they have a limited life outdoor cats.

Radar is back home!
He is fully rehydrated, less snotty, and was eating at the vets so they discharged him for care at home. He needs to go back on Wednesday for chest x-ray and ultrasounds to investigate whether there is anything worrying behind his chronic weight loss (he does have a heart murmur that we are aware of, they'll check that too to make sure it hasn't got any worse and affecting his health).
He recognised when we turned into our road, not bad for an indoor only cat - started going a bit nuts, then calmed down as we were approaching the front door, bless him. He is currently stuffing his face. I've put the heating on (unusual for me) just to make sure he stays nice and warm.

I dunno what my Jakey is dreaming about on the sofa next to me, but his tail has taken on a life of its own - I hope he is having happy adventures in his dreams!
Oh now he is doing chewing and swallowing movements, I think he just dreamed that he caught and ate something (that is my Jakey!)

Is there some kind of hormone release that causes a cat's tail to puff up when they're spoiling for a fight? Missy came in early with her tail inflated to about twice its normal volume, and whenever I've seen that in the past it's been when she's seen someone she doesn't like, i.e. another cat.

It tends to happen when they are either feeling aggressive or frightened/confronted - it's to make themselves look bigger and more of a challenge!

Milo got very spooked on New Year's Eve and went out to pick a fight with the local bully, coming back with bites all over his shoulder. The vet gave him a telling off, and me too as he's inching towards 7kg now...
This is a very pissed off Milo
And him after calming down a couple of days later

Well, Clive's feeling very sorry for himself
Right side of his face is all swollen up so he's either been on the wrong side of a wallop from a neighbourhood cat or he's stuck his head in a stingy insect nest (he's done that at least twice before, you'd think he'd learn)
If he's not much improved tomorrow morning it's off to the vet with him... Again

Unfortunately my darling Radar had a stroke earlier this afternoon, I rushed him to hospital but on top of his other health issues (URI, and tests that came back today showed pancreatitis, also he is possibly now in heart failure) he isn't expected to recover. He is on O2 tonight and being monitored and kept comfortable, and we will decide what to do after vet rounds in the morning if he makes it through the night. It is entirely possible that we are just trying to give Nate (who was at work this afternoon/evening) the chance to say goodbye to his beloved cat. I'm still hoping that there is a small chance that he might rally a bit and be viable for treatment, he's a stubborn little thing - but the odds aren't good.
Just sitting here crying my eyes out. Whatever happens it is going to take a long time for the sight of him right after having a stroke to stop haunting me.

Milo has had to go to the vet five times in the last six months for getting into scraps with another neighborhood cat, which have led to abcesses. Starting to get horrendously expensive, even if it does get us multiple opportunities for pictures like this
