So we finally had to put down Poof today - the feral cat who was having breathing problems. She was having difficulty breathing this morning, but no amount of allergy medication would help and she just kept getting worse. She was a fighter about it, hanging on the entire day until the vet was able to arrive. The vet thinks the problem was a tumor ( Read more... )

So my BIL andI were talking about TV shows and movies, and it lead into an interesting discussion on how media uses the label of "mature" these days. So, apparently, there's giong to be another Star Trek series. I don't know the details since I didn't read the article. But my BIL was talking about how the person who wrote the article - which was an ( Read more... )

We had our vet over while she was hanging out so we were able to get her checked. Turns out it was allergies leading to Asthma attacks. The vet told us to give her some daily allergy medicine, and since then she'd been doing great. Even her breathing's returned to normal ( Read more... )

So as I was heading out to go somewhere I needed to be, I spot one of my feral cats I feed lying on th proch struggling to breathe. Her tongue is blue, her mouth is open, but there's barely any breath sounds. She's just gasping and looking ready to die.

Fostering cats, Ginger and her therapy, doing things with the family, teaching myself how to ( Read more... )

So in order to help Ginger walk she needs to do aquatic exercises in the tub.

After eating her dinner, she always needs to go number 2.

I made the mistake of feeding her before her exercises.

Never again.

So last week we got a call from the Humane Society asking if we'd be willing to take this crippled dog whose back legs don't work. Being the suckers for handicapped animals that we are, we - well, I - said yes. And even though I'm not a dog person, although I do have a soft spot fo Dachsunds.

The kittens are finally back at the shelter ready to be adopted! My word that took forever. I never had foster kittens give me so much trouble, but I suppose it was only been a matter of time. Now I'm in that state of miss them/don't miss them, in which I both miss and don't miss how underfoot they were and how they kept trying to kill one of our ( Read more... )

So lately I've been toying with the idea of raising money in order to hire an editor, and for a while now I've been considering going into a small business with my mom in which we combine our art talents and start selling things online ( Read more... )
