What is it about the end of the holidays that leaves me
feeling down? Call it a holiday hangover
or the post holiday blues. Whatever it
is, it sucks. Today is my first day back
at work after eleven days off. It was
nice to have a break, but getting up early and wearing something other than
lounge pants was a downer. For some
reason my pants don’t fit me like they did before the holidays either! I’m
going to start Weight Watchers, again, tomorrow. The weather doesn’t help. It’s been grey and cold.
Yesterday I took down all the Christmas decorations. It was particularly sad to me because my cats
love the Christmas tree and we just recently learned that one of them is very
sick and likely won’t see another Christmas.
His meds are helping him feel better though and he sat in a pile of
tissue paper and played with an ornament while I put everything away. I was happy to see him having fun
though.
My cure for this is to start planning vacations to warm and
exciting places! What do you do to beat
the post holiday blues?

Did you end up getting his meds compounded? How is he feeling?
Laura - My vet has a similar place they use and called in 2 of the meds yesterday to be made into treats so we'll see how he does when they arrive. They didn't want to get all 6 meds like I wanted because they didn't want me to spend a bunch of $ if he didn't like the treats. He is doing much better though since he started pimobendan and lasix, they seemed to make him feel much better and now he is more social, active and eats all his meals! He's still got a crazy fast heart rate but he seems much happier.
If he doesn't like the treats, try BCP. My cat refused another's pharmacys treats but loved BCP. They'll send out samples to your vet of different flavors to see which one he likes as well. The samples have no medicine in them.
