Elsie has refused to eat for the past day or so, and we suspect is because of the medication - perhaps the 'meds' take her appetite away by restraining her gastric acids from being released, which causes her mind to think that she is hungry.
Elsie, at least, keeps hydrated by drinking water, which is near by her on the radiator, and she gets a lot of warmth from Ewa - on her laps. Ewa and Elsie are just so sweet together - they have a great bond.
But the best news just came this morning, Elsie has decided to eat some, but not from her communal bowl of food, but from Ewa's hand (as I said, they have a great bond), for one reason or another, I think Elsie may have associated the bowl's food with not feeling right, and rather eat from Ewa's hand. Whichever the reason might be, I am very happy that Elsie is finally putting something in her stomach...
Elsie, get well soon - we love you very much, and we would like to see you back on all four again... and perhaps commending over your bowl of tuna with that sweet "slurping" sound that you make.
