  • Tiger’s quiet afternoon upstairs

    After coming back from the vet’s, I guess two days of traveling to the vet’s had taken quite a stressful toll on Tiger. So, after I gave him his medicines, he fled upstairs. Since there is no other cat inside the house, I let him stay upstairs and he was there for 4 hours before…

  • Tiger gets RetroMAD1 (Day 2)

    Connie came over to fetch me to the clinic where I hoped Tiger will qualify for the RetroMAD1. The vet was really nice and kind. He explained that not all sporo cats make it despite treatment and one’s best efforts. Tiger, being FIV-positive for so many years also means that his immunity is already significantly…

  • Tiger has sporo wounds on 3 of his limbs

    We did not see the other wounds earlier in the afternoon. Tiger has sporo wounds on both his hind legs and his left front paw. I don’t know how long the wounds have appeared as the ones on the hind legs are on the inside of the legs and are hard to notice. In any…

  • Tiger has sporotrichosis

    This afternoon, my daughter, Ming-Yi noticed a few wounds on Tiger’s left front paw. It looked quite mild and I hadn’t noticed it before this, but I wasted no time in taking him to the vet’s. The vet too thought it looked like “lick wounds” but they are definitely not bite wounds, though.  It looked…

  • Tiger’s appetite improves!

    Tiger ate three helpings for breakfast today! The sneezing has stopped and he is no longer squinting too. He is still on Vetri DMG, of course. His third helping – licking up all the remaining food from the big bowl. Bunny’s balding problem is improving, slowly but significantly. I think it’s Revolution that is doing…

  • Tiger’s trip to the vet’s

    Tiger was still sneezing a little last night and his appetite isn’t fantastic, so I thought a trip to the vet’s might allay my fears. Cow has been keeping him company ever since the day of the attack (for the record, Cow attacked Tiger and Tiger landed up with several puncture wounds on his paw).…

    Tiger’s final dose of antibiotics was yesterday evening. His appetite had been good throughout the whole week while he was under medication. In fact, on the very evening after seeing the vet, he had already started recovering. He even allowed us to touch his paw. So everything was really going well until yesterday noon when…
