[ updates ]
Welcome foolish Mortals! Not much new happening here! Just the usual hum drum of life...yeh, right.
I truly don't know where to begin. Our dearest, eldest (20 +) and bitchiest of our three cats passed on to the other side on February 1st. Big Kitty (Stardust) lived a good and full life. Near the end she was held together by her anger and spitefullness. We were very sad to see her depart but know she is giving the other side patrons a run for their money. March 9th, the newest feline to our clan had to be taken to the emergency vet hospital as she was not her usual FREAK self. She was showing signs of truly abnormal behaviour, like not eating, drinking, hiding, sitting still, etc.
She stayed overnight and the next day she had the usual (mind you expensive) ultrasounds, exploratories, etc. to find what they called a piece of string, floss, or fishing wire in her intestines, colon. They had to cut out about 4 inches of said as the tissue was dead due to the suspicious string strangling it. Needless to say she was going to have to be under the watchful eyes of the 24 hour manned staff. She had stitches, staples, been shaved from her chest down to her anus. Two of her paws were shaved, we called it the poodle cut, she had to wear a wife beater to hold in the drain tube and feeding tubes and last but not least..THE Collar!!!
Heather has BLOGGED this event and will be adding a link to photo's later and hopefully a link so you can read the daily log. She also has had many donations, of which we all are grateful!!!
Maebe was at the hospital for 1 day short of a week. We brought her home a week ago today (3/22/08)Saturday. I am sure you have heard of a tv show called, The Six Million Dollar Man? Well, our Maebe's new name is the $6,000. (wait I mean $7,000.) cat. That's right folks, it isn't cheap to have a pet. Let me tell you what a joy it is giving her medicine 3 times a day..picture a cat wrapped in a big blanket cocoon!!
BUT she is doing well. She gets her stitches and staples out Monday. Hopefully the collar and wife beater can be ditched also. She HATES both.
I will keep you updated on her condition. We have prayed everyday for a speedy and safe recovery for this little dork who is always eating something she shouldn't. WE will be cat proofing the house!!
