As hard as it is for me to believe, the Depomedrol injection Kismet received Wednesday afternoon appears to be working.
Seemingly overnight, the lumps in his skin have receded to near nothingness; his sneezing/snottiness has disappeared altogether. Remarkable.
This is what we would refer to as a Very Good Thing.
Kismet still has to have his antibiotic pills because of the biopsy wound, but otherwise he’s a happy camper.
You can tell how excited he is by his recovery. . .
His behavior — poking his nose into everything, pulling things off my desk, and so on — remains unchanged.
Oh, and sleeping too. Lots of sleeping. But I suppose that’s natural.
Friday. Ark.
Be there.
The Carnival of the Cats will be this weekend will be hosted by
Niko and Cloud.

It’s been an exhausting day, and I haven’t got anything either terribly deep or really exciting to say. Fortunately, I have two fallback positions.
The first would be to find something interesting someone else said and make it a Quote of the Day. This might work, if I’d had time today to do any reading.
The other option is to write something about one or more of the cats, or post a picture. Fortunately, one of the various things I did today was take Kismet to the vet for an injection of Depomedrol to deal with his newly-diagnosed allergies.
It was a pretty quick trip, so his stress levels were not quite as high as they had been on his last trip, when the biopsy was performed.
On his return, he celebrated by shredding some of the paperwork from the vet.
We’ll see how he’s feeling tomorrow. I am, of course, hoping the injection is effective. Fingers crossed.
