Ally Cat Updates

[shais_mom]

I will believe it b/c I've talked with her regarding my Kylie. And I've corresponded with a few others regarding other animals in my life. I'm sorry carole but adding a at the end doesn't take the bite out of your words.
Yes dogs do more damage. Dogs kill people on occasion. Cat bites have more of a chance of getting infected than other bites that is what makes them dangerous.
If Ally were a dog she wouldn't have been alive long enough to fly here.
I do believe that Ally is a tortured soul. I don't know if anything on this earth that could make her happy, I hope that I'm proven wrong.
I still support Jenn in whatever her decision b/c she was the only one willing to put up with her when the time asked. And Ally is in her home not yours (plural) or mine..

Staci i am not sure as to which words you feel had a bite to them, sorry if you feel that way, it is not mean't personally at you , but i feel just as strongly as you do,maybe she is a tortured soul, i really don't know,none of us do and neither does Nancy in my opinion, you are a believer and i am not,on that we differ,that aside, i agree with you entirely,Ally is not in my home or your's and i would understand any decision Jenn made as long as it was not purely based on this reading, and i for one don't think Jenn would even considerate that and that alone, she has seen Ally in action, know's the kitty in and out and she is the only one capable and who has the right to make the decision.



I guess we should agree to disagree on the reading,i do respect you as a person you know that.,and i sincerely apologise if i have upset you in anyway,and anyone else,it is far from my intention.

Sometimes i feel poor Ally needs other's in her corner, fighting for her existence,as she has so much going against her,one does become very emotional just thinking about her.

I will endeavour to leave it alone from now on in this thread, perhaps in hindsight i should have bitten my tongue and not voiced my opinions so strongly,and just continue sending positive vibes for Ally and Jenn, like you i only want what is best for the two of them.

At this point, all we know are the outward signs -- the aggression, the unprovoked biting, the screaming. These signs are consistent with either a physical problem causing her pain, or an emotional problem None of us can tell. And it could be a physical problem at the root, that has been complicated by other events (Connor's arrival, the long period of isolation, the flight over here, Jenn's other cats, maybe even something like the different sun angles and different light intensity compared to Bahrain).

It's possible something happened to her right about the time that Connor arrived, and he might really have nothing to do with her problems. Just to throw out some examples (without implying that any of these might be real), she might have been stung by a scorpion (or bitten by an insect carrying disease, or snake), and the venom might have caused a problem, she might have had a stroke, or maybe she gets a cat-equivalent of migraines, or any of many other possible conditions -- some of which could easily have been missed in a routine vet exam.

Well I have Connor and based on how he interacts with the rest of my gang, I wouldn't be at all surprised if he had something to do with the way Ally is right now

Jenn, I just ordered 1,000 chicken flavoured capsules to try and get some holistic meds into Tiger to help him get healthier. Krazyaboutkatz recommended that I give them a try because I'm having trouble getting the meds in him. I certainly don't need 1,000 (that is the minimum order) so I was thinking of sending you 150 in hopes that Ally might think they're tasty and hopefully you can hide the Clomicalm in them or anything else that might help her. Just let me know. I should get them in about a weeks time.

Gosh that is really interesting what you have to say about Connor,is he a pretty mean kitty to the others,sounds like he certainly has had some influence on how Ally has turned out, I think your input would be of great value here right now.

Connor is not mean per se, but he likes to be "top cat". Unfortunately he is very large, so he can get quite physical with the other cats. But I could see how he and Ally could have problems (Lbaker and I picked Ally up from the airport and took her to meet Jenn so I know what she is like.)
