Thankful for my vet

[Randi]

Is it already a year!! I'm so glad to hear little Peanut is doing well. She is such a pretty girl and completely spoiled - as she should be!

Debbie, I hope Peanut will keep you and Terry company for a long time to come!

Please give her scritchies and kisses from Fister and me.

Love the picture by the window, and also the one in front of her house.

Oh Peanut! She's one of my favoritest kitties on PT. She reminds me so much of my Mitzi with her coloring and her princess attitude. It's so good to hear that she's doing well.

Debbie, she is so beautiful, and I am grateful, too, that she is doing so well.

How much does she weigh?

Mimi went to the vet yesterday for her annual checkup and shots and she weighed in at a whopping 5.2 pounds. I actually thought she was going to be lighter than that. She is fur and bones and not much else, but her appetite is good and Dr. Robinson told me to keep on doing whatever I'm doing because it is working. Mimi turned 17 years old on Sunday (this past Sunday, the 18th) and she is a miracle girl, for sure. She has certainly slowed down and I notice that she hasn't groomed herself as well, in recent months, but I'm letting her "live", however she wants to.

Peanut always reminds me so much of Mimi. I love both of those special girls.

she weighed in at a whopping 5.2 pounds.

Wow, she really doesn't weigh much! I actually just called the vet to find out if they weighed Peanut when I took her in last month. They did and she was at 7 lbs, which I find shocking! At her healthiest she weighed 9 lbs and she is really light as a feather so I'm surprised she's that heavy. She really does feel like skin and bones....and, well...fur. The vet said last October she weighed 7.5 lbs, so in 6 months she's lost 1/2 lb, and I bet if I weighed her myself tonight she has even lost a bit more since May. I call her my bony butt kitty. The good news is she's light as a feather when she jumps on my stomach as I'm laying on the couch.

I did have to start trimming the hair on her butt. She, too, wasn't grooming as well and after her last bladder infection, the vet suggested the trimming, especially because of her tumor we want as few bladder infections as possible.

I'm glad to hear Mimi is still doing well also. Peanut will turn 18 in September...which reminds me....another old lady here on PT either just had a birthday or is about to have a birthday. Have to PM Vermontcat and see how our Samantha girl is doing.

Georgia, Mitzi always reminds me of Peanut too. I love the little "split" noses they have.

I Know That Tubby Angel Is Bringing His Dear Friend And Cracker Jack Treats From The Nugget And Karina Mandarin, And We Pray That You Have As Much Time With Peanut As Possible.
Shes Such A Sweet Cat.

Dear sweet Peanut:
Do you have any idea how much your Auntie Slick loves you and we haven't even met?

I'm so grateful too for the wonderful vet who took care of you and also your wonderful Meowmie and Daddy who make sure you are the happy princess you deserve to be.

Sweet Little Peanut,

You are truly a treasure; it is heart-warming to know that you have a loving Mommy and Daddy to take care of your every need and cherish the time they have with you.

You are such a beautiful little girl - I have long admired your gracefulness. In many ways you remind me of my Maine Coon, Roxy. She was petite and very pretty with a charming personality all her own, and very much a Daddy's girl.

Stay well little one.

Hugs and kisses to you, Betty

P.S. Debbie, this post has put tears in my eyes - happy ones. Thanks for being such a great catmommy.

Pretty little Peanut - you are adorable

[orangemm]

OMG, I thought she was much younger than that! Wow, pretty girl, you sure have aged very gracefully. She looks like such a sweetheart in those photos; you know how to capture her beautifully.

Dear little girl, I wish you many more happy days with your meowmie and lots of lovings and scritches.

What a beautiful face she has!

I'm glad to hear Mimi is still doing well also. Peanut will turn 18 in September...which reminds me....another old lady here on PT either just had a birthday or is about to have a birthday. Have to PM Vermontcat and see how our Samantha girl is doing.

Samantha is doing just fine.
Her 18th Birthday is on Monday June 26th.
I will be away for the next 3 days but I will be back on Monday to post some photos for Samantha's 18th Birthday that day.
(Samantha may even have a Birthday surprise for everyone.)

Peanut and Mimi are such lightweights compared to Samantha because she weighs their combined weight of 12 lbs!
Give Peanut and Mimi hugs and kisses from me, I love those two little old lady cats like I love my own old lady cat. I'm glad to hear that they are both doing well.

Peanut is quite beautiful! Enjoy every minute with her and give her as much love as possible. She's amazing to have made it to that age with all the obstacles in her way.

My my, Debbie, she sure is one beautiful girl.

I know all about having just a year more - a few months more - a few days more - and they were so very very special I can cry just thinking about some special moments.

For example, who knew that Magic loved strawberries? In all of the years that I had him, I never knew that.

They do rule our hearts there is no doubt about it.

Peanut is one lucky girl to have such loving parents!

Peanut you are such a pretty girl, and you have been through some tough times being ill, but you have a good life and a family that loves you so much.
Your time is precious and you know that and your mum and dad know that, you will always be a special girl.
I hope you continue to live a good life and to the full. You look happy in your pictures still.
Love and hugs from Kate, Jack & Sunny
