henry

yay! he just used the litter box! he isn't sick, or as sick as we thought. i'm so relieved. he ate more yesterday than he has been. the only thing he's lost interest in is grooming jack. and dry food, of course. this could just be anorexia (yes, cats, especially older cats, go off their food for purely psychological reasons and it is called anorexia). today i'll find a vet and have doc call them from work tomorrow and make arrangements. we'll make sure we've got the cash to pay for bloodwork and testing.

i have good news for doc when he wakes up. he is really worried about henry. but things are going to be fine. we're going to take care of him like we have been and get a vet's opinion.

i think i'm repeating this to calm myself. am i more upset about this than i'm letting myself think? whatever. things are looking up.
