Animal Hospital at Our House

Our ancient Yoko

Mom feels like she is working at a animal hospital right now - we have two sick kitties.  Yoko is 19 and has high normal readings for hyperthyroid for years and now has a UTI.  She is doing better but Mom worries about her cuz of her advanced age.  She is also getting sub c fluids along with Chica. You can see her fur is a mess - she has long since stopped grooming and it jsut mats up terribly.  Pop cuts it off or combs it out but she hates that.  It is hard to do anything for her without upsetting her.

Snowball napping

Our big mancat Snowball has had his third UTI in a few months but he is doing better now.  We think it is the stress of living with Al that is causing the problem so Al is separated from Snowball unless we are there to supervise.  Al and Snowball will fight and pick on each other.  We will have to see how this goes and then make some arrangement to build another  room for Al in our cat house.

Snowball's catmom Lily checks on him too.

So you see how busy Mom has been giving meds, fluids and checking on everyone else.  We hope to post more next week after things calm down. Wishing you all a super weekend.  Any big plans?
