Indigo Update

As this blog is supposed to be mainly about Indigo's pregnancy and kittens, I thought I'd best update on how she's doing.

The scabs on her head have fallen off now, leaving slightly rough skin underneath- hopefully that will continue to heal. Unfortunately, she's developed a small number of new lumps. Two on her neck and two on her face. It's most frustrating, as I'm not using any perfumes or sprays or soaps, thinking it might be something like that that's bothering her... but there's obviously SOMETHING. Grr!

She's been suffering a little nausea from time to time, she's been sick once more and is occasionally a little gaggy. At the same time she's been eating loads, nose permanently in the food bowl, so I've started to move her gradually over to kitten food. Theo has been most interested in this change! She's also got a very slight roundness to her belly now that wasn't there before.

She's very very cuddly still. Now Tonks are known for having two 'settings'- one being active and involved in everything and bouncing around everywhere like mad things, and the second is contented purring lap cat. Over the past few weeks we've had less mad thing and much more cuddliness, although she still has her moments of madness!

It's kind of so-so at the moment, really. I wish her allergy situation was resolved, but she seems pretty healthy despite all that.
