Kitty stress - even when things are okay, meep.
It's so hard to know if I'm doing what's best for Willow. Gave her another injection tonight, even though she's been acting totally fine for two days. I want her to stay hydrated so she feels good, but the extra fluids put extra strain on her kidneys, so I shouldn't overdo it if I don't have to. Am I straining her overmuch? Would she have been just fine going without, tonight? Or is it better to keep her nice and extra-hydrated for another day after being dehydrated for the better part of a week? She feels a little dehydrated to me, but it's really hard to tell - how loose her skin is, is my only indication, and it's always sorta loose. Hrm. Just want her to feel good.
I'll skip tomorrow night and see how she does, but I'll be away at work Tuesday so I won't get to monitor her throughout the day like I would like during such an experiment. She's doing so well that I suspect she'll be just fine and we can ease back to every other day, but I can't know until I try. Ergh. Stressssss.
She's happy and comfy though, and chirped and rubbed on me after the injection. So, I feel like it's all okay for the moment. *knocking on wood*
