Wish I was talking about a spider or an ant, but I am talking about a virus I found myself wrestling with. It put me down- I was wondering if I was going to walk upright ever again! And I took a flu shot too-
On the Google front- they think she just has a high sensitivity to any type of food. Have tried her on everything under the sun including raw and her body just can’t digest it well. They ordered some new enzymes for us to try and beyond that it would mean more bloodwork and questions being sought. She did inhale an chicken mcnugget the other day- snatched it right out of Mike’s hand and ran under the couch with it! Silly kitty…
On the Cyclone level additional bloodwork shows he had blood in his urine, low white cell count and very concentrated urine as well so he is on antibiotics and pain killers. He is gaining weight he is 10 pounds now.
I am so grateful for the personal emails and messages checking on our status- but honestly- it hurt to move and laying in bed seemed like a much better option.
I have found a home for Truman and Tover but Truman came down ill and I won’t adopt out a sick cat so until his eye clears up he is here. Tover leaves this weekend to spend his life with a lovely lady who just lost her 17 year old black kitty to cancer.
Speaking of Truman he has a vet appointment now so I have to go-
Purrrrrsss for you and Truman. We hope you are both feeling a little better by now.
Mary Ann, do you have any contacts up around Seattle? There are a couple older kitties need at least a temp home. Their owner died, and they need someplace by the end of the month.

I’m sorry to hear you have been ailing! On the Google front, I had my own female tested for allergies because she was overgrooming and losing all her hair. Reports came back and she is allergic to everything under the sun!!!!!! Now I am forced to purchase only one type of can food from the Vet and Hypoallergenic dry food from the vet as well as getting her injected with a steriod every 3 months! Unfortunately, her brother has had to go over to that food too because it was too much trouble feeding them separate items. Good luck finding a food for Google. I will keep you all in my prayers.
ewwwww – don’t like spiders but would take them over the flu. I was beginning to worry about you as well…..
purrs to all the kitts – and for the adoptions.
Welcome back! Sorry about the flu. Hope it passes quickly. Good thoughts.
I was wondering why there hadn’t been any posts from you this week. I thought it might be bad news about the cats. Human flu is just as bad, especially when you are as busy as you are. I hope you are recovering well. Many people are getting the flu this season. I had it just before Christmas, the first sickness I’ve had in a decade. As for Google, maybe fast food will tide him over until you find some real food he can stomach. But do Chicken McNuggets constitute food at all?
LOL! Not in my book!
