Saturday morning Baker the cat update: he and my wife slept more or less well in the guest bedroom overnight. Once she left the room this morning, he went back to yowling and scratching, trying to get out. I went in to try and calm him down, to no avail.
We gave him our first tube feeding a short while ago. Went well, but he couldn't hold all of the food - she had to stop due to burping. I held him while she fed & gave drugs. Future tries should go better.
