Updates

Well,

All my documents are back from the lawyers/governments/embassies, arranging to have them scanned (most are larger than a standard, personal use flatbed scanner).

Was at the vets today with Hooligan -- his liver enzymes are all back within the normal range!!  YEAH!!!!!  BUT, his bilirubin levels are still four times higher than they should be!?!  He had an ultrasound - yeah, lots of fun trying to hold him still while he had his liver/gallbladder region scanned.  Good news - the scan did not show any abnormalities (I'll take the vet's word on that as I couldn't make ANYTHING out on the scan).   Hooligan is free from visits to the vet to draw blood for 4 more weeks (we had been going every two weeks) but, he is on powdered meds until the next visit.

Koshka will head off to the vet in a week's time to check her kidney functions but, will not have to have a complete blood work up this time as her anemia is under control (her haemoglobin levels were low, so I added B12 to her meds) although,  her reticulocytes are still low.

I am trying to enjoy my two week break from teaching...
