Poor Lily is recovering from a urinary tract infection, her first illness. Being an overly attentive cat mom, I noticed right away that something was off and took her to the vet immediately. She's on antibiotics now and is well on the road to recovery.
Of course, she didn't cooperate one bit for her examination and had to be sedated in order for anyone to get close to her. Unfortunately, she is always naughty at the vet which is why her chart is labeled FEISTY. While she was sedated, the vet trimmed her nails at no extra charge. We all appreciated that! :)
So while she is recovering, she is getting lots of attention -- even more than usual, if that is possible. She needs to be drinking a lot of liquids so the vet suggested giving her chicken broth in addition to water. Lucky for Lily, I happened to have a freezer full of homemade chicken stock which she has been enjoying immensely!
I hope by the time you read this post she will be feeling 100% better. In the meantime, rest assured she is getting plenty of TLC!

Thanks, Jill and kitties! She is doing much better now. This is her first time being sick! :(
Your post warmed my heart. I always enjoy seeing photos of Lily's sweet face. And you're such a good mommy to her and Tinsel. If only every kitty in this world could enjoy homemade chicken broth. Get well, Lily!
Awww, thank you, KrissyB! She is doing very well now, all better! I am so relieved. :)
And that is so true about other kitties. I wish all kitties had warm forever homes. :(
Awwwww... poor Lily! I do hope she is well on the road to recovery. Lucky her to get chicken broth! You are such a good mommy Janet! ;)
