Our latest rescue cat (Chinchilla) *UPDATE*

[cloverfdx]

Thankyou everyone for all the well wishes, much appreciated.

Sorry about the delayed update everyone.. Twas a rough weekend .

Willow as she is currently being called looks as though she wont make it.. she has stopped eating, not going to the toilet etc. The vets were not able to get us in Saturday morning so she will be going later today. We also found out that she only has 1 tooth .. so cannot eat dry food/ kibble.

I realy think the kindest thing will be to put her to sleep unfortunatly.. unless the vets says otherwise.

*Sigh* I hope things start improving soon, starting to loose heart .

Can you get water into her - with a syringe? Fluids will help until you can get her into the Vet.

[Maya & Inka's mommy]

Awwww thanks for giving her at least one or two days in luxury! She feels you care!!
I hope you can save her, she is a beauty!!

[moosmom]

Please don't kill her! She needs a second chance. I hope you will give her that chance. She's beautiful.

Get something in her! Force feed if you have to. I can't believe she managed to survive on the streets only to die once she has been rescued. That is to hard to grasp.. Feed her baby food meat from a jar. TRY to get something in her.

[moosmom]

Try chicken or turkey baby food. Get some water into her so she doesn't get anymore dehydrated than she already is.

please force feed or something!!!!!!!!!!

*Sigh* We have been giving her water/ watered down pet milk. We are not going to let her starve and die naturally.

If the vets says that nothing can be done to save her then yes she will be humanly PTS.. better than living out her days waiting to die.

I can't believe she managed to survive on the streets only to die once she has been rescued.

And i cannot believe you would post something like this without knowing how frail she is . I know i would rather her be PTS than get hit by a car or worse.

I for one can tell how bad she looks from the photo. But of course, since photos can be deceiving, I did not say anything. I hope the vet feels that with a little supportive care, she can rebound. But I agree, being PTS humanely HAS to be better than dying a slow, painful death on the streets. Best of luck with her.

I've known Laura's Babies a long time and I really don't think meant to offend anyone. I think she MEANT to say that it's a SHAME to see Willow finally be rescued from the streets and find a home, only to be PTS because she was so sick and frail, just when there was light at the end of tunnel. Does my explanation make sense??? No one can know how frail Willow, except for you. I'm praying that she will start to come around.

Please keep us posted. And thank you for being Willow's guardian angel.

Thanks moosmom, that is exactly what I was thinking when I posted that and anyone that knows me knows that.

I am so glad to hear that she is doing better and will continue to send good thoughts and prayer her way.

Oh my, I am so glad you spotted this little one! Poor baby - did they check for a microchip at the vet?

My prayers are with this sweetie. I know you will do your best for him/her, Rhi. I am so glad to read that s/he is eating!!
