Sir Biscut is a Sable Male
Sir Gravy is a Sable Mitt Male

Adopted on August 09, 2003

Sir Biscute and Sir Gravey came to this shelter on June 10, 2002 The boys came from a family that had a life change that did not include them, they were only 9 mo olds when they got here.

The boys went for their B/G tests today. Biscuit had a 113 and Gravy had an 85. I believe they are about the same as the last time. I wish Gravy's would come up a little higher. They have an appt. in January for their physicals, distemper immunization and another B/G test.

I just thought I would give you an update on Biscuit and Gravy. The boys had their physical yesterday and they made out pretty good. Biscuit weighed 2.5 lbs and Gravy was 2.11 lbs. Gravy gained his weight back after being sick. Remember when they all were put on Albon.They also had their blood glucose test. Gravy had an 83 and Biscuit had a 97. They said those were good numbers. They had their distemper immunization and they go back next week for their rabies.

I just thought I would give you an update on Genny and the boys visit to Doc yesterday. Genny just had to have a Blood test. Her blood glucose test came back 92 . I know she had one a couple of months ago and it was on the low side so she had to be retested. This one seems okay. The boys went in for their physicals and their distemper shot. They have to go back in a couple of weeks for their rabies shot. I got a little anxious with the boys as they were in a cage together and one of them we discovered when we got home was throwing up white foamy stuff. I was concerned he was having a reaction to his shot. They seemed okay when we got them out of their carrying cage. I called Dr. Edwards and he said they would still be acting sick if they were having a reaction to the shot but they were not.

Gravy is home I picked him up around noon today. We kept the car warm for him. Actually it was kind of hot. He did try to stretch when he was in his cage but stopped. We gave him soup and he ate all of it. We put him in that little snuggly blanket you gave him. Thank You very very much. He is sleeping in it in his cage. Genny went in to check things out and she seemed okay with him. Biscuit hasn't been in the cage with him yet. Gravy has to take carafate and amoxicillin 2x a day for 14 days. He has an appointment on Jan. 2nd for his stitches to be taken out. I will keep you posted.

Thanks for the info. I gave him his moxy in soup 10 minutes after he had his carafate. It worked out pretty good. He drank all of his soup. I put the moxy in a small amount of soup and after he drank that I gave him some more. I wanted to make sure he got the meds in him. He sure does hate his meds. He really likes sleeping in his sleep bag you gave him. I put a couple of blankets in it with him.

I thought I would give you an update on Gravy's appointment with Dr. Edwards. He was tested for insulinoma and he doesn't have it. Dr. Edwards said his blood sugar was fine at 92.He also said he would not have that much energy as he had after fasting for 4 hours if he had it. However he said he may have an adrenal problem as we had told him that he has become more aggressive and Doc noticed that his fur toward his tail was rather thin. He is giving him 3 weeks to see if his fur will thicken up and if it doesn't he will need surgery.

The kids are doing well. They went for their rabies shots on Saturday. I made an early appointment so I did not have to keep them caged a good portion of the day. I cannot count on them to show up when needed. They were glad to get home and play.

The little guys had a whole lot of fun helping us take the tree down and put the ornaments away. We had to be careful they didn't get put away with the ornaments. We did a head count before we put everything away. All were accounted for. The tree was really dropping its needles even though we cut it down. It was never out of water. Oh well.

I can't remember if I told you this but Mary suggested that I have Gravy's BG tested. I did on Monday and it was okay. It was 98 and he had gained 4 ounces. I think I will have Biscuit tested also. I should have had them both done at the same time but I didn't think of it and Gravy was the one I was concerned about. He still acts a little strange at times. I hope it is just the heat.
