As many of you know, my cat Lua was severely sick this month and the vet sent me home one night saying that I should think about putting her down and don't expect her to get better.  This is probably the last photo I have of her before she got sick.

This is the first photo I took of her once I got her home two Saturdays ago.  She was very underweight and her fur was in poor condition plus you can see in this shot where they shaved on her throat for feeding and IVs.  Lua hardly leaves my side.  She is at least in the same room with me at all times.  There are times when I get up to go to the bathroom when she'll get up and follow me.  This behavior has deterred me from raiding the fridge because I don't want to put her through a lot of extra work.  Also don't look but there is godfather nudity in that photo.

Lua is slowly getting better.  Today was the most active I've seen her since I got her home.  She was chasing a laser and running up and down my stairs.  It's also taken my other cat Kiki about two weeks to get used to having her back after Lua was at the vet's for about two weeks or so.  Kiki no longer hisses whenever Lua is around.  Well here's an up close shot of her throat and chest area.  I like how they left her black spot on her chin.  Her goatee is quite prominent now and her fur is slowly coming back.

Lua has to be by me and she's come to enjoy watching Happy Days as much as I have.  Disregard my messy coffee table and stacks of tapes and games.

And I suppose I have to include Kiki.

Pretty soon they'll be back together at full health.
