Totem has Heinz Body Anemia because of all the fleas he had to endure. This is why he hasn’t been keen on eating much and has been sleeping pretty much since I brought him home.

The good news is getting rid of the fleas was the first step to helping him out. He had three baths yesterday and then I treated him with Kitty Advantage and flea combed him boiling the survivors in hot water. He was given a shot and I was given some tincture to give him and it was suggested to feed him boiled, pureed liver (ugh!) for a few days to help him out.

He tested negative for the bad stuff and honestly, he screamed like a bobcat when they tried to draw blood from him! I have never interfered with their back procedures until today- he sounded like they were killing him! Turns out, not only was the pump a bit dry but he hates, hates, hates being restrained!

So he gets lots of TLC and liver to eat and his supplements and hopefully soon he will be right as rain.

I made an appointment for Thursday to get Magoo neutered. He has been trying like crazy to get Reese pregnant lately and thankfully, she isn’t old enough for that to happen!

The bottle babies are on their way over the mountain with my friend Rachel. She came a few minutes to pick them up. Seems their TNR program in their area is so successful there are NO kittens available for people to adopt! That’s cool-
