Joy - 19 May 2008 19:37 GMT I'm worried about Nanki-Poo again. He spent almost all day yesterday outside in the 100+ degree heat instead of coming in where it was cool. He did come in for dinner, and later for treats, but I haven't seen him since last night. He did leave a calling card on the mat in the garage, just outside the kitchen door. I'm sure it is his, because it looked just like the rodent remains he deposited on my hall carpet a few days ago.
He has had some sores on his neck as a result of his radiation. He hates to have me put salve on them, or even look at his neck. That might be one reason he's making himself scarce.
I wish he'd show up so I'd know for sure he's okay. I'm also concerned because I'm supposed to take him back to the oncologist for a follow-up visit on Wednesday, and I can't take him if I can't find him.
Purrs for his neck to heal, and for him to go back to spending a lot of time in the house, would be appreciated.

Bet he'll show up soon, with or w/o another rodent....and you can capture him and confine him to your home till vet visit.I'm glad he is feeling good enough to chase and catch prey.

Thanks. I finally went to check with the neighbors. I live on the corner, and by hopping a couple of fences, he's been known to get into the yard of some people on the street behind me. The people there are funny. There are two signs on the front door that say "Welcome" and two that say "No solicitors". When you knock, either they don't answer, or the man asks who it is without opening the door. He did open the door after I told him who I was. He said Nanki-Poo has spent the entire day in his back yard. I would like to have seen him for myself, but he didn't offer that. At least I know he's okay.

At least I know > he's okay. I think it would have been perfectly reasonable to ask to see your cat, without being offered. But maybe you just didn't feel comfortable doing that, and this guy didn't exactly make it easy, I guess! But if you had really wanted to see him, I think it would have been fine for you to ask. I'm glad Nanki's OK!
Smudge loves to sleep on my neighbor's back deck. Now that I've had a chat with the neighbor and have determined that she is a sensible person who loves animals (she has two birds), I feel fine about Smudge making that deck her second home, if she likes. It makes a difference to me, knowing that the person whose home she's at is trustworthy.

Purrs and 'check in with Meomie' orders on the way. We could never get Sam to stay in out of the heat. He loved to get out on the really hot days and bake himself. Just make sure there is always access to fairly cool fresh water.
I suspect the rodent remains were his way of sending you a postcard to let you know he's fine.

[quoted text clipped - 24 lines] > > Jo Thanks, Jo. I found out he's been in the yard of a house on the street behind me. I guess he likes being outside when it's hot, but doesn't want to be too hot. Most of the good bushy places in my yard are in sunlight most of the day. The yard where he is has shelter from the sun, because there's a block wall he sleeps up against.
You could be right about the rodent remains.

As I've said above, I know where he is now, but I'll be glad when he comes home, so I can see for myself how he is.

At least the radiation treatments are over.
One thing that could be good or bad, depending on how you look at it, is that I'm leaving Friday for 2 1/2 weeks in Alaska. I hate to leave him, but he's reached the point where he stays away or out of sight most of the time, and he ran away from me this evening. Maybe he'll be glad to see me when I come home.

Of course sweetie, MAJOR PURRS for Nanki-Poo to get his little butt home and be safe and for his neck to heal. I am so sorry you're going through this:( Hug Kyla

He finally did come home, and actually spent some time on my bed. He's disappeared again, but I'm sure he'll be in for his bedtime treats. I feel much better about him than I did.

The purrs are working. He came in a little while before dinner and stayed in for two or three hours afterward before he disappeared again. I'm sure the purrs will take care of the rest, too.

I did get a look at his chin this evening, and there are a few small spots that are healing, so I'm going to leave it alone.

Stormmee - 20 May 2008 12:59 GMT we will purr, and what kind of salve are you putting on his neck? could it sting? Lee
