3rd Round of Chemo/New Cat?

This week has been okay. The chemo really got me exhausted Thursday. I slept a lot. I didn’t realize it was knocking me out until I woke up. Today, Friday, would be my last day on this round of 5/23. No nausea this round. I’ve been taking the Zofran as directed. It really does help. I had blood work Tuesday like every week. We stopped for a breakfast sandwich afterward. The coffee was so good. A cold brew with cold foam and toffee bits atop. Delicious.

We have a new kitty coming Sunday. His name is Leo. We’re calling him Uncle Leo as he will be the boys’ uncle. The person who had him before us is moving into a place where she can’t keep him. It’s a sad situation, but we are happy to be able to help out. I hope the transition and introductions go smoothly. It’s not the first time we’ve introduced a new member to the family. But it can be stressful for the kitties and the humans. I asked the previous owner to sleep with or keep a towel or washcloth with their scent to allow for soothing familiarity for Leo. I’m not too worried about the introductions. Our boy Pancake is very open to new members of the family. Chip can be a brat at times. Leo comes from a house where he is the only cat. This only slightly worries me because he hasn’t had cat friends before. He should be fine though; from what I hear, he is a pretty calm and chill boy. He is a chunky slow boy, so we will have to get that weight down. He’s going to be my in-laws’ cat. They are familiar with him, and he with them.

So that’s my week. It’s been good except for the fatigue yesterday. Hope y’all are doing well.

Thanks for stopping by!
