He's doing fine


A few people have asked about my cat Pasta. He's doing fine. Back in January, a vet discovered he had an enlarged heart. That vet said there was no hope for him. We decided we wanted a second medical opinion and took him to the UC Davis Veterinary Hospital which has a large staff, including an animal heart specialist. The specialist was not as pessimistic and recommended that we give him only one pill (nutritional supplement) a day, instead of the six pills the first vet insisted he take. He's been his old self the past three and a half months. I'm so grateful to UC Davis.

I'm so happy for you that your adorable orange tiger, Pasta, is doing well. Those folks at Davis are just terrific. I have 6 kitties myself, so I know just how important our furry family members are to those of us who love our furrchildren. Fascinating blog, by the way.

Thank you for dropping by, Sally. I've always been a cat person. Pasta is like a son to me.
