Urgent - Type B Blood Needed for Squashies

UPDATE
We are doing the ***happy dance***!!!!  They found a match for Squashies! 

TK and The Squashies blog buddies need your help!  Please Tweet, blog, post to Facebook.....

If your cat has been blood typed, and is Type B (Rare but prevalent in Asian breeds,) we need your help. Squashies is in desperate need of a transfusion. We can't find a Type B donor.

We will pay all expenses to bring the cat and you here to Baltimore. With a very generous bonus for your time and discomfort. Call Dee @ 443-527-9226.

Our little girl is running out of options.
Thank you!

Very Thankful Thursday

Yoko chowing down.

First off Mom wants to thank you all for your Gotcha Day wishes for Ivy.  She almost forgotted the day but managed to post at the last minute.  She has not been by to visit you all much as we have so much going on here to deal with.  It was touch and go for our sweet Yoko here.  She has CRF and high thyroid and got a really bad bladder infection.She was not responding to the antibiotics at first.  Even one of our vets thought it was time to say goodbye but Mom does not give up on us.  She kept feeding her and caring for her, giving her lots of supplements to help her heal and of course the antibiotics.

Making biscuits.

Today she is back to her old self - eating up a storm, making biscuits, yelling at Mom and of course snoozing - what she does best at her old age of 19.  Mom knew she was going to make it when she hopped up on the foot of the bed one morning and yelled for food  like she always does. That made Mom cry cuz she really didn't think she would ever see her do that again.  So we are really really thankful that we still have our Yoko  and hope she will be with us for a long time to come.

Mom's flashy box is in her face!

Napping sweetly.

Ooops - Mom Forgotted!

 

Mom fogotted again!! She forgot my Gotcha Day last year too. She even looked thru the CB calendar to make sure there were no days this month she should remember and didn't see my day!

But I know she loves me and is very glad I am living with her inside. I have been an indoor kitty for only 7  years but am about 14 years old we think.  I came with the house  the folks bought and had just had a litter of kittens and was very skinny and hungry.  Mom put out food for me and got me spayed when it was OK. I lived outside until all my buddies had been taken indoors or had gone to the Bridge.  This pic below is me with the last of my buds - both have gone to kitty heaven now.

She was worried I would be too wild but I am a love bug and want all kinds of loving and like laps.  I also have FIV but am doing very well and live with lots of other kitties who are not FIV. I think I am Mom's favorite cuz I had such a hard life outside - she really pampers me and I soak it up.

I am the black cat on the left, Nick is on the right and Big Guy is behind me.

Anyway - we will have to throw a quick celebration together - some nip, tuna, salmon and Temptations (the Natural ones).  Help yourself and thanks for coming by!!!
