Ally Cat Updates

[phesina]

I will be glad to contribute to help Ally get another reading, a vet check, medications, or any other treatment that might help her or give her a little peace.

I seem to recall reading that early on when Ally was first with Julie she was sweet and loving and delightful. She did not come into this world "nasty nasty nasty" or full of "evil hatred."

I don't know what the best solution would be for her now. God bless you, Jenn, and everyone else here, for all you are doing for her and all the efforts to find ways that would truly help her.

This just breaks my heart for Jenn and for Ally.

I am not sure what vet appointments Ally has had since she has been in Jenn's care. But I am all for the idea and would be very glad to contribute to another thorough vet exam.

More than ever, Jenn needs our support here - we all contributed to Ally's travel to the U.S. - but ultimately Jenn has the full responsibility.

That said, I feel as though I should reserve my private opinion - since it is just that - my opinion - and does nothing directly for Ally or for Jenn at this point.

Oh, I for one definitely support ANY decision on Jennie's part. I added my opinion (about a vet visit) because I think Jennie would feel better at least finding out if there was a medical reason for any of this. (and the story about the dog with the painful teeth REALLY got me wondering. )

I have been following this thread and I have to admit that I am shocked by Nancy's reading. I knew from this site that Ally has some "issues" but I never thought for a split second that it is this bad. It deeply saddens me that Nancy would say that putting Ally to sleep will bring her peace. Having said that, Nancy did a reading on my Max and it was dead on.

Sitting here miles and miles away, I can only go on instinct and my gut tells me to go with Jen L's suggestion for a vet visit. If it were me, I would want to make doubly sure that there is nothing sinister going on inside her...like having a brain scan done just to see if there is anything going on inside her head. Then, maybe you've had all that taken care of...or maybe the brain scan is just a stupid suggestion.

I feel so badly for all concerned and I stand here and applaud all of you for the love and care you've given this sweet girl. Yes, I say sweet girl......

Whatever decision you make has to be based on what is better for Ally....not the humans or other kitties. If she's really that angry and hates everyone and everything, then how can she enjoy life??? Will anything on this earth bring her contentment?

I support any decision you make Jenn.

I would like to add that I too would contribute towards either another reading or a vet visit or both. Having these things done wouldn't do any harm and maybe, it might result in some kind of resolution which would be such a blessing. Perhaps having her examined from head to toe under some sedation would provide some information otherwise unknown.
My husband and I are moving soon and we are hoping to find another home with acreage. Part of me wonders if I couldn't somehow make a space for her, with her own little outbuilding with heat and a large enclosed run where she wouldn't have to deal with other cats. My other cats have a super big outdoor run right now (70 feet by 20 feet) and they seem to really like it. But making her travel again might set her back even further and who knows what my husband would think about this idea! I don't think he'd be keen on it but I might be able to talk him into it. But if there is even a possibility that I could do it, it wouldn't be for months because we're listing our place this Friday. It would also depend on if we found another place that has acreage or not.
And of course, it may not be something that Jenn feels is right for Ally. It just breaks my heart thinking of this poor soul, feeling so angry/upset and not being able to find a way to be any different.
Jenn, does Ally come at you (in attack mode) when you just walk in the room sometimes or is it usually related to when you are about to touch her or move her? Does eye contact set her off? I'm just trying to get a better idea of how she is.
Anyway, in the meantime, I hope the Clomicalm will make a dent and get her to the next point whatever that might be. My thoughts are with you Jenn.
