Good news, I passed the tests I took last month to get certified. Two more to go. It's a bit annoying that they won't give me an actual score (so I don't use it for any other purpose???), just "pass." The teacher in my wants a grade. ;o)

Bad news, back to the vet today with Spider the cat. I have not missed one dose on his antibiotics or drops in his eyes. Yet I think his eye actually looks worse than it did 3 weeks ago when I first took him in, it is closed up and barely opens when I pull it open to put drops in. No doubt the teeth had to come out, but there must be more going on. I don't know what to do. I'm also curious if he has lost more weight today. He used to be a BIG cat, but he's so thin now. He's not meowing the last couple days either, when he tries it's scratchy. I think his throat is swollen. I want him to get better, but if that's just not going to happen I don't want him to suffer.

And I have to be practical. Today will push it over $1000 on this issue, and I can't keep doing this, I have a family with expenses. I can't keep dropping money when the treatment isn't even helping.
