Home Needed *UPDATE* Negative for FIV/FELV *Fleas, Worms*

Do you think she might be a missing kitty? If she has been an indoor cat, she might be spooked pretty easily.

Just a thought. Good luck with her!

I've checked all local papers and nothing so far about her. I will post her as Found/Foster Home Needed so incase someone is missing a long hair kitty but she looks too rough to be someone's kitty but she might have been at some point.

I'm thinking that maybe she was the sister of the other kitten I rescued early this January and I gave them both to Shirley Fonda of Fondas Foundlings but she's no longer taking in anymore cats so I can't ask her to take this one in for me.

When I trap her and take her to the vets we'll do a chip check to make sure she doesn't have one.

Thanks,
Melissa

I know what you mean Melissa as Pouncer Roccalno plays Cat and Geezer all of the time , being friendly and them just staying out of reach,
maybe shes a Cat who needs her freedom.
She has done very well since she escaped from a cage, and then the cellar 2 years ago, a feat that Houdini would have been proud of!!!

All we can do is leave food and pray.

Ok well I caught the cat last night and it's a "Boy" not a girl.

He was very scared last night and not very happy. I took him to the vets today at 8:30 a.m. and dropped him off and the vet's office just called and said they were running the FIV/FELV test and it was negative.

But here's the bad news....some I knew like he would probably have to be shaved because of his burrs everywhere and he has 3 bite wounds on his neck 2 of which are healing nice and the 3rd is pretty fresh.

He has to be sedaited for them to work on him because once they took him out he flew up at the ceiling and hit his head off the coroner of the desk and got a bloddy nose. Poor guy.

He has fleas and worms.

So now I have to get my guys treated for fleas.

Total bill
$12.50 rabies shot (he has to have this because of the bite wounds)
$34.00 exam
$33.00 to sediate him
$30.00 for the shave down
$2.00 medical waste
$16.50 frontline for the fleas
$27.00 antibotic to prevent infection in the wounds
$35.00 FIV/FELV combo test
$18.00 worming meds
$208.00 just for him

I'm getting $50 donated at least and the rest I'll just have to pay monthly.

Man I didn't realize saving one cat would give me this much of a bill.

I'm not sure if he is going to be able to be rehomed or not but I guess I need to try.

Is he really a male tortoiseshell? I hope he can find a home soon.

No actually he's not. I forgot to attach a picture of him with his fur.
