Hangin' in there

Rasta is now home in the ICU - my bedroom. He needs round the clock monitoring, medications and feeding attempts so I haven't gotten much sleep. Though this is a much better recovery environment (not caged amongst 50 barking dogs), he is still in very rough shape. He fights taking the meds and has to wear a cone on his head which he has come to minimally tolerate. He's very lethargic and in obvious pain but the pain killers seem to help a bit. The only good signs are that he ate a tiny portion of food this morning (first time in 3 days) and he can summon a faint purr when I stroke him.

Thanks for reading, I'll update when I can. Feel free to comment here.
