Chemo, round 3

Leo goes in for the last of his treatments for Round 3 of chemo.  This one is the one he doesn't like (and we don't like, either).  This one makes him ill.  But he'll soldier on, because he's fearless and completely trusts me. Bit, on the other hand, is convinced that I'm taking him to be skinned alive and the only thing to do is to fight for all he's worth.  Because Bit is a cat, and cats don't trust.

Back and Forth

Seems like I'm talking a lot about Bit and not a lot about Leo.  Well, that's because Leo is doing great!  He went to the vet last week and everything was great, he took the chemo fine, he's doing great, his bloodwork is great, he's happy and shedding like a champ.
Bit, on the other hand, is a whole story.

Bit is a disaster - and that's a good thing

I was afraid that Bitter wouldn't make it to this point - the first post-chemo checkup.  It was bad - to the point that I was worried when I would leave home that he may or may not be up and about when I got home.  He was very thin (around 9.5lbs) and didn't look good.  Really, he was just lying around - not that 12 year old cats do much more than just lie around, but more than usual.
