Barney is an Angel Now.

[Emeraldgreen]

Well, things just might be looking up for Barney. Angela stopped by my work this afternoon to pick up the elizabethan collar I got for him and she said that he was doing alot better. She decided to take him out of that tiny room and into the cozy living room and laid him down in front of the warm woodstove where a roaring fire was going. She said he loved it and stretched out and rolled over and exposed his belly!!! He even let her rub it! If that isn't a good sign, I don't know what is?! She then spoke with Terri, my coworker on the phone and told her that she had brought Barney into the livingroom and that she felt that it was important for Barney to feel normal and be part of a house etc.. She also told her that Barney was probably cleaner than Jack because we've washed him so many times. LOL I'm not too sure if that's true though, he is one dirty guy and could probably use 5 more baths at least. Terri said it was okay and that Angela could act like it was her own home while she was there so it looks like Barney is going to have more fireside evenings ahead!!

And, Angela seems as if she will be staying on for longer. I don't know for how long because I think she doesn't know for how long either and is taking it one day/week at a time. She feels like she is supposed to be here so she can help him and it's also good for her as she is going through some of her own life changing stuff (about to sell her home in Ontario etc..).

So, if I may, I would like to hang on to those wonderful donations and put them to good use! Angela is going to book Barney in for a recheck in 5-6 days when his last thyroid pill is gone. Hopefully we will see some kind of improvement on all fronts.

Thank you to everyone who has provided support in all ways and a very special thank you to Moesha and Purr-tender for calling in your wonderful dontations. The hospital now has a credit of 70.00!! And thank you Mary (Medusa) for your donation that arrived today!! As of today we are up to 95.00 and I have been PM'd by Randi and Momtomany that they too have mailed some donations. And Jenn has mailed 3 doses of feline Revolution for Barney so he will be set for 3 months. And, a friend here on the island has offered to pitch in some money over the next couple of days. I am forever grateful and each and every penny will go to restoring this old guy so we can get him into his furrever home!



I will hopefully be able to visit with him tomorrow night and will bring the camera to get some video footage of our guy.

E.T.A. I just realized that Mary's donation is in U.S. funds and our dollar is complete crap right now so it will actually mean some extra funds! I think today our dollar was wortt .79 cents to one U.S. dollar Yippee!
