The latter has been very encouraging. Since the surprise news of Teddi's completely normal thyroid reading, it really does seem that his coat is getting softer and fluffier again; it feels like going back in time, to how he was a year ago, before the hyperthyroidism started making him so greasy and unkempt. All three vets are stunned and, rather than risk being negligent and leaving his condition untreated, they've proposed I bring him back and re-do the test in five or six weeks time - just to check whether there's been any change.
In the meantime, both he and his sister (Tobi) seem glad to have me home, and take advantage of every opportunity to snuggle, or to spread themselves across any book or Bible that I try to read or write in.
