Update on Nikolas

HEA decided to bring Nikolas back to the sanctuary - well, sort of! He is living with Amanda...imagine that! Amanda is very experienced with supportive care and is taking care of Nikolas around the clock...no kidding, he wakes her up every few hours in the night to tell her that he is hungry or that he wants his paws massaged! If he makes it through this, he will know no other life than being spoiled. He is taking all of his medications like a champ, under the skin fluids (no more iv's, which is good), and is officially eating on his own, although this is pretty messy yet as he sticks his whole head in the dish, but then again he did that when he was healthy to keep the other kittens from getting any food! He kicks Amanda with his back leg, the only leg that works when he is mad/frustrated with her. The hardest thing for Nikolas at this point is that when he hears noises or wants something he can't get it on his own, but he is learning to communicate his thoughts very well with Amanda. Continue to pray for progress. Nikolas says thanks for caring about him!
