Two steps forward and one step back...

Temba took a little step back this weekend. He had been walking and was able to squat to use the litter box on Thursday. Friday came and he couldn't stand up at all. He also seemed a little listless and didn't want to eat at all. Misty is taking him to work tomorrow to get him weighed and see how we're doing. We're hoping he's not hungry b/c we were just giving him too much before so he's still full. But it's been a few days like this so I'm concerned to say the least.

Temba was sitting up and trying to stand in his box this morning. He wasn't standing as nice & straight as before, much more wobbly. He also squealed a bit this AM when I was cleaning him after his feeding. As long as he's trying and comfortable (he likes sleeping in the crux of my arm wrapped in a blanket right now), we're gonna keep trying. I keep telling myself that his earlier rapid "recovery" was unusual and maybe now it will be the slow path upward that we'd expected. Slow is fine by me as long as it IS upward.
