That's kind of sad for her. She must have enjoyed doing it. Maybe it IS time for her to retire!

Yes, Gysmo. She loves lots of people around and she always had lots of sidedishes to go with a turkey or ham, but the last few meals have been more basic. She always wants her grandson and his family to come and mom keeps telling her they have their own "crowd" to hang out with and they don't have anything in common with us old fuddy duttys.

Oh, no! Does the vet know what's wrong?

Sadly no, he has the bloodwork of a kitten. He did say that he had some pretty bad junk in his ears and sever dental disease, so we are trying antibiotics. The first one happened when they tried an anti diarrhea medication him. that was December so it was stopped but he just had another one yesterday. Moms heart is breaking for him.

Mom's niece is a vet and she asked her opinion. She said that they usually don't do meds unless they are really frequent. So for now we are just watching him he has had 2 in three months. Mom is hoping that the antibiotic might help in case he has an infection from his teeth or ears.

I've been on seizure medication for about 11 years now. Mom gives me diazepam.

Mom thinks I had seizures even when I was a kitten and that's the reason I didn't hang out with her and the rest of the family. I was always off on my own, in a different room. One night I woke her up, crying like I was scared and she held me for a few hours until I settled down. A trip to the vet didn't reveal anything, although he did suggest I might have had a seizure. A week later mom heard a noise in the kitchen and she found me in a seizure. I came out of it and back to the vet the next day and was put on diazepam.
