I've been missing him a lot, and last week was particularly difficult.
I finally got my "good" computer back from repair and I'll start sharing the rest of our feline family as soon as I have it set up.

Thanks for following Mr. Max's journey here, and mine. It's been a long two years of loss.

Looks like there's some important messages in the Autumn Joy sedum. Mr Max is right on that. Doing okay today, spent the morning and early afternoon priming him up for me being away for the rest of the day. I think he'll be good.
#mrmaxfostercat
I still plan on an ultrasound which will likely tell us more, but now it can be a regular appointment, not an urgent or emergency visit.
Thanks everyone for your purrs and prayers, support and help for Mr. Max!

Mr. Max in a hopeful sun salutation this morning! He's feeling good, another garden walk, no photos because he was moving too fast. Still no poop and just a few nibbles. Hard not to be really hopeful, though. We are leaving for our veterinary appointment. Be back later.
#mrmaxfostercat
My lap has also gone unoccupied a good bit of the time now too.

Mr. Max and Hamlet in the kitty waiting area, waiting for different things.Mr. Max has found the purrfect spot to wait for 1. food, or 2. attention. Or best of all, 3. both. Hamlet is quietly waiting for Mr. Max’s attention.

I'm also hoping this helps Morty feel more comfortable with the other cats around, and they with him.
Lots of heat mitigation stuff, now back to work.

Mr. Max is supurrvising my inventory of tiles for this weekend. How could I get anything done without the a-purr-roval of at least one feline.

He's been feeling good overall, eating better and gaining a little weight, less intestinal pain, and enjoying his time downstairs with the rest of the household and more time with me. Hoping to keep this trend going.

He needs to see his veterinarian again now that I have some observations to report.

In the background you can see the anxious parent, seeing two eager cats directly behind the baby, loudly trying to coax the little one in that direction.
Wow, time for baths and naps now. For da kitties, that is.

Sleepy faces.
Mr. Max left, Bella right.

Thanks to the amazing Dr. Elgersma for being available to suggest and tweak things for him!
It's probably going to be a long process, so send some purrs for him!
#mrmaxfostercat #blackcat #veterinarymedicine
He still needs some purrs, but he's feeling much more like himself. And he likes being downstairs with us all day so I can keep an eye on him. Morty's been joining us for a few hours each day too, mostly when all the others are asleep.

It was good to see Dr. Sudberg and Angel again, after so many appointments in 2022 and 2023, always a little tense and sad. I always appreciate their calm demeanor.

I feel Mr Max is unimpressed by my deck yoga performance.

It's a little strange to have another round-eyed black cat down here--I mistake him for Bella sometimes when I see him.

Art critics.
Or maybe they don't like me painting other cats.

(That's my tortie Kelly in my favorite photo of her from 2011 on the windowsill in the studio. She's been the background on my studio computer since then.)

Studio cat Mr. Max wants to know why there is no space for him on my work table. He resolved this by hopping up on my shoulders. He moves too much to get a photo. No, problem as long as no pastels are harmed in the process.

Mr. Max enjoys his weekly dose of "Mimi's Homegrown" catnip. Apparently this year was a pretty good batch. Happy #Caturday!
And after this week I think we can all use a little Mimi's Homegrown.
