kitty got sick. 😦 he had to go into hospital for 2 days. then, sadly, after a day of being home, he got sick again and back to the vet. got some treatment and came home. then, believe it or not, got sick again and had to go into vet for a 4th time! so, i was just beside myself! he is doing much better now, although i have to watch him and his diet.
