I took my rubber hand on a stick, and spritzed it with lots of Rescue Remedy, and while hubby had the dogs out, I tried gently patting her with the arm...and she spazzed! :( Could be that notorious tortitude, or maybe she's feral, but there are many more dumped cats around here, than ferals. :rolleyes:
My gosh Jan, just when I thought you couldn't amaze me anymore with the types of rescues that you do, you go and pull another amazing rescue like this one. I am so glad that neither you nor the cat was hurt in any way.
Poor, poor little kitty. I know in due time, you will get this scared little girl to trust you.
I hope and pray that her injuries are not too serious, since you are not able to see right now what type of injury to her neck she has.
Have I ever told you, your my Hero. (Bette Midler).
Drat, now i'm going to have that song stuck in my head all night.:p
I don't know if this will help out with the vet bills but you can look into their qualifications. Couldn't hurt.

QSL do we have an update?
You rock!!! Thoughts and prayers that this poor little girl is just scared and NOT feral. After all she's been through, I'm not surprized.
(((((hugs))))) to you Jan!!;)
Jan, you are indeed a miracle worker! I know when a cat is in your care, it is truly blessed and its prayers have been answered for sure!
You and the kitty will be in my prayers, Jan, and like Laura said do be careful out there.

Things aren't looking too good for this kitty. :( She finally ate some food, and drank a good amount of water, but seems as though she's urinating where she's sleeping, and not in the litterpan which is very low, and close enough that she should be using it. :( She detests being touched in any way too. Still no "lost cat" reports matching her description either. As beautiful as she is, if she can't go to the bathroom, and can't be touched to express her bladder, or even check her over.....:( She seems comfortable otherwise. The other two from that night are doing well. The male went to a shelter, and the female (who's very pregnant) will be going into foster care if all goes well. She's calming down a lot now. I suspect she endured abuse at the hands of that creep who is going to jail for assault and battery (3rd arrest). I'm glad I was able to get the cats out while he was in court, as I'd hate to hear how he'd take his aggression out when he got back home. :eek: :mad: He was directly responsible for another cats death a few years ago. :mad:Quote:

Is she moving around at all? Hopefully, she will chill out enough to use the litter. Sometimes they are so traumatized they just sit in one place with saucer eyes. If she's urinating where she sleeps, she must be able, although she probably won't do much if she wasn't drinking.
I have two that I can't touch; the vets have to sedate if I can get them there. I wish there was a way to immobilize a cat for 5 minutes without hurting them.
More prayers being sent. Maybe Cinder & Smoke can get through for us.

She's completely covered over in her cage, but she should have urinated more than she has by now. I have to attempt getting dry bedding under her without her flipping out and skittering out of the cage. Or me getting bit. I'm never one to make hasty decisions as evidenced with miracle girl Emily Rose. ;)
Jan,
Maybe all this poor little girl need is time and peace and quiet. I pray that she'll come around. I also pray that the scuzbag that hurt her becomes Bubba's girlfriend in jail. That filthy low-life piece of $hit.
You are a miracle worker, Jan. If ANYONE can bring her around, you can.
How's the pregnant kitty doing?? Did she have her babies yet??
Very well said Donna.Quote:

Jan, prayers and positive thoughts still on the way for this precious gir.
((((((HUGS)))))) to you.
Jan, you are such a wonderful lady. I will pray for the little kitty and hope she calms down enough for you to touch her. :(
Donna, You seem to be getting cat #3 confused with the pair I got from an apartment while the a$$ was in court. The one injured was off the streets, and seems to have bite wounds circling her neck, most likely from a large dog. The other pair from the apt....one (the tom) went to a shelter, and the pregnant one is here until I find someone else to take her. And yes...BOATHOUSE Gal finally had BABIES! :DQuote:
