she is a black tortie with a soemwhat meezie build. when she tore her muscle there was some nerve damage from teh trauma. it has partially recovered but not her toes. if i pinch the webspaces between those toes she is clueless, the toes on the fibular side have sensation. she does groom them and con...

Concatulations!

well you realize your 'rent' will be cleaning litter boxes, right ?

her toes on the affected leg do not work. I'm hoping she will regain control/sensation. I noticed today as she was lounging that the front of her toes are raw, they are dragging and rubbing apparently and she does not notice. So I will be making a little sock/book/something to protect them. It isn't...

I have been trying and trying to adopt another twisty, like Bendy was. people post these cats and "oh they need a home right now" and then they don't get back to me or say "well she isn't ready for adoption yet" or, best of all, "we want someone local" even when I've offered to drive five hours one ...

I know a woman in Florida who is looking for a special needs cat to be a companion to her. She had one who recently passed away, had twisted forelegs. I can see if she is interested in Cherry..

i understand. i barely go anywhere anymore. catsitting orientation here takes about 2 hours! please keep us posted on her, I copied & pasted your original post and sent it to someone who might have more contacts. Have you put her on facebook? lots of rescue stuff being done there, too. If you get in...

So what is happening with this lil girl?
any takers? any interest?
is she still completely incontinent?

And butterbean came to me all the way from Florida!
I think it is downright silly to let distance be a factor when transportation is available. esp for a special needs critter!

He wanted to hang out with me as I was working so I put him in the "cat chair" next to me. He can jump down, but I keep an eye on him just in case. He started out playing with a crinkly candy wrapper then found a better toy. So here he is just having fun :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IjW_grFlHOw

Give him a smooch or a scritch for me.
i definitley understand when they are just needing to not be stressed anymore
purrrrs from the crew here for you both.

finally got word about the little blind twisty in teh western part of the state and they said to give them a call. She is doing well, they are working with water therapy and her use of her legs has improved dramatically. my suggestion of pumpkin for her runny poop fixed that problem. they are afraid...

well i've been passed up for two in a row. what REALLY galls ms is that the rescue just falls silent. they don't have the manners to even say "we're sorry but we decided to send kitty to someone else" maybe they think i have my hands full maybe i'm too far away maybe they think i'm a nut case who co...

"skin is too thick for fluids" = "vet is uncreative" that is a LAME excuse fluids can make a huge difference in so many conditions, i am floored that anyone would simply write them off becuase the cat has thick skin. Lance's skin had clogged and bent needles. he still shots, and if he needs fluids y...

the bendymom is not good enough to adopt mutant kittens.
Tho, no one ever told Butterbean that.

so sorry to read this news on Sasha.
I wish I knew something that could help him. You have done so much with him.
