Conniption

LOVE that word Jess.  Is that the correct spelling?  Yes, cats can have conniptions, can't they!  :)

Before I forget, here is a picture of little Molly - isn't it terrible that I forget the names of kitties that I rescue, and name, and then adopt out, and then their new parents RENAME them!  :(  But who can forget this face?? 

Here she is now:

Can you imagine this baby girl living on the streets before I rescued her at what ... 14 weeks old?  Just a little kitten!  I am so thankful I am able to do these rescues when I can. 


Also, little Winky/Zoey is doing good - they are still not sure of what is wrong with her, but her parents LOVE HER TO PIECES.  This is what her mom reported earlier this week:  "She had a good weekend. The vet called us yesterday and after speaking with her colleagues, they think that it could be a bowel obstruction (may not be stooling enough). We are no longer giving her dry food, but high protein wet food. We have seen a major difference in the size of her belly (getting smaller) in the last 24 hours . Keep your fingers crossed!"


She is another little girl kitten that was living on the streets, and has been through so much if  you've followed the past few months of this blog.  I am so grateful I was able to get her also.  She was running across the streets on Garson Avenue at the tender age of 15 weeks or so also.

It was sort of a heat wave out there today, in double digits, compared to the past week.  All the usual suspects were out.  My little Gordie.  He is a joy.  He has turned into a mushball.  He is still in my bathroom, waiting on his manhood to diminish on Friday, but he now turns over for belly rubs.  Its amazing how you can see a very frightened homeless cat start to trust you over a matter of months, come closer and closer, allow you to pick it up, be rescued, be frightened again, and within hours know to use the litterbox, and finally turn over for belly rubs.  Amazing these animals are.  I must find this very beautiful all grey fluffball a home.  Captive #1 Abby is doing well also.  A real snuggle bunny she is.  She loves to be held and loves to be scratched.  She is a very sweet mellow girl who needs a loving forever home!  Spread the word!

I need to do my posts twice a day, as I run out of room in the mornings.  Its tough trudging through all this snow and getting back home to get ready for the next morning's feedings, and then get yourself ready for a long day at work.  So, again, sorry for the short post, but work comes first! 

Have a great day!

  1. I am so relieved that little Winky/Zoey is not seeming to be an FIP suspect any longer!! i have TWO constipated cats, to put it bluntly- and it is very manageable! it sounds like her vet knows the latest and greatest diet recommendations for that, so sounds like she is in good hands. there is a good yahoo group for megacolon/constipation cats if you want to pass it along to them- it is http://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/FELINE_MEGACOLON/info

  2. What an answer to prayer that would be if Zoey's condition was manageable and not FIP! Please God!

    It's amazing how Gordie and Abby are coming around. How's Charlie Sr?
