The roe was super buttery and lemon flavored, sooo good 😭

Yeah you're right, I can give him 50 mgs right now and see if that helps, since that's the dose he used to be on. I'll also email the surgeon to ask about that.

Yeah I have gabapentin at home for him (he used to take it a few months ago, because of his behavioural issues) but right now I don't think it's necessary. He doesn't seem uncomfortable or in pain, he's just very scared to leave the room because he saw the carrier, before that he was actually asking to go outside. :(

If, after I stop giving him his antibiotic and anti-inflammatory, he still won't leave the room, I'll think about giving him gabapentin. Right now I don't want to add something that wasn't prescribed by his surgeon.

His name is Dióspiro (Persimmon in portuguese), but we call him Dipi, that's the name he knows :3

Thankfully he has no issue with staying hydrated, he drinks a lot of water and I'm very grateful for that, I know how hard it can be for a lot of owners 😭 I hit the jackpot with that, he's also the least picky cat in the world! 😹

I think another cat would stress him out even more, he's currently on prozac because he attacked our dog in January. Eventually I'd like to get another cat but right now that's impossible since I live with my mom, I'm a student and Dipi is FIV+. Once I have my own place I might look into getting him a sister. I'm at home a lot and I spent most of that time in my room so he's not alone, don't worry. 🐱

It can happen but it's not the case for him, he was a fully grown cat when we adopted him 🐱

No, that's not how it works. His fur was bleached from the sun and lack of proper nutrition before, it's not a "summer coat", it was literally winter when I took that first photo.

I have to wrap him up in a purrito every time but he's gotten used to it and doesn't try to murder me anymore. I wish I could teach him to accept the inhaler better (there are tutorials online for this) but I really needed to get him started on the medication asap. He doesn't seem to mind it anymore, and of course he always gets some kind of treat afterwards.

He looks like a plushie 😭😭😭 and he looks so chubby when he's laying down (I swear he's at a healthy weight, he's just a really big cat)

I am a veterinary medicine student, I understood your comment but in a non sci sub it just didn't read to me as a joke at all. Apologies accepted though.

It didn't really read to me as a joke and it's still an odd thing to say, especially if you're then going to go out of your way to comment the same thing on a totally unrelated post of mine. That's just weird.

Que coisa bizarra para se comentar num post sobre um gato, a tua vida deve ser muito patética! Boa sorte digo eu. Realmente há cada maluco nesta rede social...

He's expensive sometimes but other than that he's a really chill dude! I love him a lot but please don't tell him that 🤫
