Not a current picture, taken in April.
Meelah is the cat my sister rescued from my uncle's barn at 4 weeks. She had fallen from the rafters and the mother never came to get her. My sister also now has Milo (an orangie), Meelah's brother, who she got when he was ready to leave the nest. Both are about 7 months old now. Milo just was 8lbs when he went in for his neuter. Mela is only 4lbs yet. The vet is testing her for feline herpes. Fortunately for how sick she could be, she's doesn't act like she's really sick. She plays well, but maybe not quite as much as her brother. I've got to hand it to my sister, I'd have never been able to spend as much in vet bills for a cat, I'd have had to rehome her to somebody who has the means to give it a try. But my sister is set on getting her healthy and is going to get pet insurance as soon as Meelah is well enough to qualify. In the meantime, has anybody had a cat with feline herpes before? The vet says it should clear up by a year of age if treated.
