JANUARY - Mushu is still wearing the cone of shame, but that does not stop him from getting into Meeko's cage...and eating Meeko's food

My sons and Sons. Note that Mushu is finally free from the cone!

Waiting for daddy to come to bed

Happy to be on daddy's legs

Meeko hopes the stones that led to an eventful end of 2013 do not cause future blockages

His fur still has not fully grown back in...and his appetite has not returned either.

Meeko and Mushu

Hard to believe that Mushu is scheduled for his first round of chemo this morning...he seems so healthy. Aside from the sore he developed on his backside at the end of last year, you wouldn't know there's anything wrong with him.

Well, that and the patch of missing fur on his leg. That said, he still has his voracious appetite. Hopefully he will retain that through his treatments.

Since mommy is traveling and I had to go into work, I dropped Mu at the oncologist, and grandma picked him up in the early afternoon. Fortunately, the first round of chemo went well. By the time I got home in the evening, Mushu seemed completely unphased by the day's events.

As soon as I stepped inside the house, Mushu greeted me with headbutts and rubs. After quickly polishing off his dinner, he joined me in bed.

The doctor did warn us that Mushu might experience side effects after a few days, but I remain optomistic that he will not. I doubt Mu will ever lose his appetite.

Sleepy time

Sweet dreams

For the first 48 hours after Mushu's chemo session, I have had to confine Meeko to his cage because there are still active toxins within Mushu's waste. I can let Meeko out of the cage when I am home, but only if I can make sure Mushu has had no accidents and that the boys do not use each other's litter box (note that the bathroom door is closed in this picture).

Meeko seems happy to be back on my chest

Hey, there's food behind these bars!

Must get it!

Almost there

Stay on target

Score!

Nom nom nom nom

Not sure what happened to our carrier
