Does your cat do this? I'm concerned. *Pidge is home *pix 6/4*

Good God, Mary. I'm just seeing all this now for the first time. You have really been walloped by the fates or whatever recently.

I'm so sorry you and your beloved Puddy and Pidgie (AND your other kitties AND your son) have to go through all this. I wish there was something I could do just to physically help ease the situation. You are so generous and kind with your love and caring for others, and now just one thing after another keeps happening to you.

Well, we are certainly adding to the prayers and singing our songs and doing our dances and saying our chants and sending along our very best wishes and healing energies. I also will be glad to chip in to help with expenses.

Love, {{{{{HUGS}}}}}, and ~~~~~PURRS~~~~~,
Pat, Peony, Sydney, Poppy, Elmer, and of course Priscilla Angel

Aw, thanx, Pat. There are people who have it a lot worse than I do. I'm pretty fortunate, actually, in that I have my son and a small group of close friends and my PT family and a really, good, caring vet. All in all, not that bad. Sometimes it feels that way when it all happens at once but after I calm down, I can see things in a better light. Your kind words mean a lot to me and I'll take all those prayers and songs and dances and chants and best wishes and healing energies gladly! The generosity of my PT family is so wonderful and, so far, I'm doing ok but if there comes a time when I'm backed into a corner and need help w/my Fur Posse, I'll give a holler.

I'll soon be leaving to take Pidge in for her IV drip to prepare her for getting her lion cut tomorrow. She's never been away from home over night so I feel pretty nervous about this but it has to be done. She's so sensitive, sweet girl; I hope she doesn't carry a grudge. If you have a minute, please say a prayer that all will go well for my Pidgelet.

[GILL]

You have all the prayers from the CREW and I. Good luck.

Awe... prayers for Pidgie on the way!

It's been depressing in more ways than one. It poured buckets the entire way there and back and Pidge cried the same cry as when I first rescued her 16 years ago. If you could hear it, it's heartbreaking. Back then, I put on a tape by Wynona and as soon as Pidge heard one particular song, the name of which I can't recall right now, she stopped crying. When the song ended, Pidge cried, so I played the song over and over and over again on the ride to the emergency clinic and back home again. Today she cried the same way, so I turned on my favorite country station and Trace Adkins was singing "You're Gonna Miss This" and immediately Pidge stopped crying. As soon as Trace stopped singing, however, she cried again. So looks like my girl likes country music.

On the way home, the vet's office called me w/the estimate: $350. Lovely. So I'm already into this thing for nearly $500 just to have her get a lion cut! Well, seeing that I've never spent money on vet care for her other than routine checkups and an allergic reaction to paint last year, I'd say that Pidge has earned this extra special treatment. The reason it's so expensive is because of the type of sedation that I've chosen for her. She'll only be out for 20 minutes and she'll start to slowly come out of it even while they're still grooming her. Plus I'm having a urinalysis done to determine if she is indeed in early CRF or if she just happened to be dehydrated that day for some unknown reason. She has to spend the night, too, because they started the IV drip today to be sure she's hydrated. I told one of the women there about how she likes country music and she said "Well, we'll just be sure to have country music playing while she's here." Now, how sweet is that! That's why I like Dr. Lee's clinic so much. They all are so nice and truly do love animals.

So I'll pick her up tomorrow, probably around 5:00 or so, maybe sooner if they get her done earlier. My Law of Abundance check had better kick in quick!

If mine works, I'll share

You're such a great Mom. Pidgie has good taste in music.

It sounds like she'll be in very good hands. I'll keep her in my thoughts and prayers.
