Oh the Troubles I've Seen
I haven’t posted a lot lately due to company almost this entire month! Anyway, we’re having some problems here and I just needed to vent.
Poor Scooter is still having issues. We’ve had him to the vet now a few times with a very severe staph infection. He was there again today and still has blood in his urine and still dripping. They’ve put him on Clavamox for 10 days, if this doesn’t do the trick then they will put him on an incontinent medication in hopes this will. The good thing is he is acting just fine, playing, and becoming quite the little lover (to us anyway). I guess at the vets he was hissing, spitting and swatting at them! We’re keeping him confined to our bedroom due to his infection and constant dripping. This is leaving our room in quite a mess, which I have to clean up on a daily basis. I just can’t stand the thought of him locked in a small cage or room during this recovery period.
Bo is very ill with a URI. She was again at the vet yesterday and was given a shot and put on Baytril. Her eyes are running and she just doesn’t feel good. Today she does seem a bit better, but still not herself.
Last but not least there’s Leila. She is still giving me peeing problems, just not as frequent. She is VERY temperamental and it seems every time she gets the slightest bit upset or irritated, she pees. She is very clingy to me (sleeping at the top of my head nightly) and I wonder if jealousy doesn’t play a part here?
I have to say with 24 cats, all the additions through the years, and the years we’ve had them, I guess we’ve been pretty lucky. I believe I’m just worn out between company and catching a cold, and all this so knew you all would understand. Thanks for listening!
Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) is a full management plan in which stray and feral cats already living outdoors in cities, towns, and rural areas are humanely trapped, then evaluated, vaccinated, and sterilized by veterinarians. Kittens and tame cats are adopted into good homes. Healthy adult cats too wild to be adopted are returned to their familiar habitat under the lifelong care of volunteers
