(no subject)

Well I took Prince back to the vet today. he's still not gaining any weight, and has lost another little bit. His recent bloodwork was fine, his teeth are in good shape, so the vet took some x-rays of his chest and abdominal areas, just to rule out any sort of cancerous/whatever masses. Nothing was found, though it did look like his micro-chip had migrated (but that could of how he was positioned for the x-ray). The vet commented that she saw what appeared to be a large bit of fur and food in his gut, and that his poop looked a bit too hard.

So he's now going to get a laxative, of sorts, to get that fur and harder stool out of his system, and she gave him a de-worming treatment, just to rule out tapeworms etc. Both my cats are indoor only, but even then, there's always the chance a flea/tick/biting nasty could have been carried in by me or the hubby. She did also note that, according to Prince's file, his weight does tend to fluctuate a bit.

Poor little guy, we were at the vet for over 1.5 hours, and he's still a little loopy (and I think he managed to lick off some of the Profender, the worm treatment).

He will go back in May for another weigh-in. The vet also recommended putting a jingly bell collar on our older, more dominant cat, since they are still squabbling and that way Prince will know when Mojo's on the move, and this might help him calm down a bit. That won't be fun. Mojo -hates- collars.

In other news, it's freakin' gorgeous out today. Woo.
