Apparently Yoshimi gained almost a pound when we checked at her last office visit (when the tech brought her out to me she said half a pound but when the vet called later with the blood panel results she said almost a whole pound)! Also, her blood work continues to improve. The vet said I can come back in 6-8 weeks and if she seems like she's doing well not to bother and just email her so that she knows that's why.
She still never leaves my room and won't even use the litter box if it's in my bathroom, so I'm facing the possibility of the next nine months with a litter box next to my desk and a room that constantly smells like a litter box. The fact that I still lock Calvin and Yoshimi in my room if I'm going to be gone long doesn't help since it's now freezing cold and I won't be opening a window for about 6 months. Crazy cat lady, I am.
Her wounds are healing (she had a really, really nasty gash on her neck - pretty much an eraser size piece of skin ripped clear off - the tube insertion point, on the other hand, healed practically overnight) but her hair is stubborn about growing back.
She still sleeps with me every night and if she's cold she cuddles right up to my side. She played with a sunbeam the other day and really likes her belly rubbed. Most of the day she sits next to the big radiator staying warm.
