Feline Update

Mister Tanaka is running and jumping and hanging out in the garden again, which is good.




He's also leaking a bit, which is not so good.

After six weeks at the vet, the cat is back home again, chasing birds, eating geckos and generally enjoying life. His blood work is improving in some areas and stablizing in others, mostly in the "generally healthy" range. For that, we're obvioulsy very happy. But we're now facing a bit of an embarrassing problem, one that we hope will eventually correct itself.

Mister Tanaka's surgery has rendered him, occasionally, incontinent. He's outside in the garden most of the day, which minimizes his leaking in the house. We don't have carpet, and we've covered all the furniture with plastic and towels, so the problem isn't as bad as it could be, but neither of us really want to spend the next six or seven years living with a leaky cat, either.

Any suggestions where I can find a line of cat diapers?
