Taylor became suddenly severely ill late this afternoon. I called my vet and he was able to squeeze me into one of his later appointments. Tay has a bad viral infection, so much so that her eyes are bulging due to edema. It came on quite suddenly.

I had no choice, I had to dip into the monies set aside for the spay fund at the end of the month. So now, although Taylor is home and on medication, eye ointment and breathing treatments, I am ninety dollars short of getting the kittens neutered.

It’s amazing to me, just when I think I might catch a break something happens to set us back a bit. I guess I will just have to see what happens- at the very least, I will be able to get the first group of kittens neutered, it’s the second group I am unsure of.

It’s been so cold here- they are calling for a deep freeze tonight. I went and got a big bale of straw and insulated cat alley the best I could to help out the outside kitties. I just wish they would come inside but they want nothing to do with that suggestion. Just have to hope that warmer weather prevails soon- rain would be nice.
