Another Bowie Update

 

Well, as you can tell by his picture today, Bowie is doing better. He's still obviously not one hundred purrcent, but he is much more steady on his feet. And his eyesight is returning - we can tell there is some sight in each eye (his pupils contract when you shine a light in them and he follows things with his eyes), but it is also not one hundred purrcent. There seems to be some uneven dilation of his eyes. He has been been drinking water, but still duzn't wanna eat, so his momma has been spoonfeeding him.

Bowie spent a lot of today hanging in my room - it iz nice to have him wif me, even if I are stuck in da kitty condo and he gets to hang on da big bed. 


Angelique wanted to remind y'our humans to VOTE if they haven't already. Luckily, ours early voted weeks ago!

  1. We are so glad he is a little better. Years ago a=our huMom had a dog (about 8 years old, not as young as Bowie) who had a stroke and over a period of time she did get better. She never seemed to lose vision but she did have trouble walking and was still stummbly for awhile. But this was back in the 1970s so there wasn't a whole lot we did for her other than supportive care and you are clearly doing that for Bowie. We just wanted to let you know recovery is possible even in an older animal. Do the doctors have any idea why his blood pressure was so high ? We are continuing to send purrayers and POTP to all of you. We bet that having Bowie and Travis able to hang out together is good for both of them,

    1. They didn't seem to have much of an idea, other than that the high blood pressure caused the blindness.
