We spent a restless night he and I in the bedroom. It is clear to me that this cat now has early signs of PTSD. It is also evident in watching his body language and how anxious he got after dark that what happened to him, was done in the dead of night. We slept with the light on finally so Fog could sleep.
This cat will NOT stop eating! I was told he hadn’t been eating, so I suspect now that he knows he is safe, he is making up for lost time. He slept near me last night but not on me as he used to when he was here before.
His body condition is a bit bizarre, he has this swollen belly, but his back bone, butt bone and head bone are all protruding. He has lost all fat and muscle and that could just be his survival mode kicking in- when a cat doesn’t eat for x amount of days, the body starts feeding on itself essentially. But the good news is he has his appetite back so feline hepatic lipidosis is at least out of the picture!
If anyone reading this can donate even just one dollar towards Fog that would be wonderful. I have an appointment at 3:00 Monday and Monday can’t get here quick enough. If he was in dire straights, I would be driving him to the ER clinic, but he is eating, drinking and pooping so at least that part of him works!
Thank you for reading this and thank you for caring. Fog needs to know that not all humans are bad and he is still a bit upset with me for putting him in that home in the first place- 🙁
I had to back up and read the last post. I am SO sorry. I hope that woman knows the things her son could be headed for and gets him some help. And I am glad Fog is back with you….and on his way to safety.
We just sent something along–that poor kitty. Agree, children who abuse animals are prone to grow up w/ problem behavior. But for now, Fog’s outlook is more important.
We feel just horrible for poor Fog but are so happy he is back with you. Praying he’s back too his normal self in no time flat. We just made a donation to help with his vet bills.

We are so glad you went to see him and that you now have him. poor baby who knows what horror he went through, makes me sick to think of it. Hope this donation helps in some small way.
Poor sweet Fog. We (my Dad) just left a few green papers.
We are sorry to hear about Fog. But we’re glad he is your hands now. We just made a small donation to help out. We hope he will be okay.
Oh my gosh. That 8 year old boy would be so dead. I can’t believe that he was hurting that gorgeous cat. We donated a bit to your fund. Let us know what is going on with him tomorrow.
