    Mongo is very sick -- pancreatitis, diabetes, diabetic ketoacidosis

    My Mongo -- cat of the day on January 4, 2017 (http://catoftheday.com/archive/2017/January/04.html) -- had a rapid decline last week and was in critical care for several days at the emergency vet. It was touch and go for a while, but he stabilized enough to come home the day before Thanksgiving -- a blessing. He is doing okay for the moment, and on insulin for diabetes and other meds for pancreatitis. If anyone wishes to donate to help defray his veterinary bills, here is his GoFundMe page -- Mongo and I really appreciate the generosity.

    mongo I don't have extra to send at the moment. Would your workplace or stores you shop at let you set up a donation jar?

    One idea is to ask for pennies. 10,000 pennies = $10. Now that doesn't sound like much but people are usually glad to get rid of pennies. They add up!

    I hope Mongo stays recovered and improves.
