I still don't have an answer for what really ails Cleo. I would have to say she is doing a lot better, but she still isn't herself. She has lost about ten pounds since she got sick, and is lower energy. Recently she has had moments where she is much more her old self, jumping around when I come home, wagging furiously at people on the street, and begging at Petsmart checkout counter. She is eating more normal food now (although she is on a venison dog food) and today after running a few errands together and going on a walk, I just saw her run out of gas. She started to droop at Petsmart, lowering her head instead of walking up to the employees. She immediately laid down in the new car, which she has yet to do (it is slanted way differently than my older, bigger car and she is way too interested and excited about it to sit) and slept the whole way back. I woke her up long enough to give her medication and feed her, and then she was right back to sleeping.
I am going to try to contact CSU about getting a grant to find out about her, but I'm worried they would give me something like that. She isn't really getting better...and I am worried I'm going to have to say goodbye sooner than I would like. I guess it is out of my control now, and I should just enjoy the time I have with her.
