Please pray for the little outdoor tuxie

Darn.

I was thinking by your description of his actions that he was
probably sick with something.

The stress of living outside doesn't help
either. Have you seen his mother cat around there lately?

Yes, his mom is here usually twice a day. She hisses at him every time she sees him.

I hope if you see him again you can throw a towel or blanket over him and get him into a carrier to take to the vet.

Heartfelt prayers for you and for little Mike.

Prayers for little Mike, that he is safe and will come around as he did before and that you can get him in to see the vet... and that he can finally get a real HOME.

And prayers for you too, for all you do for all these lost little critters. God bless you all.

Pat and cats

Poor little guy! It seemed like he was starting to trust you a bit. I'm hoping the brats and their dogs haven't done anything to injure or scare him.

There has been no sign of him all day. I went out and called for him several times and checked under all the bushes and under my old car.

There were skunks out and about last night. I smelled them. Maybe they chased him off.

Mike came home last night but was so weak, he fell over when I touched him.
I called the vet's cell number hoping she could come get him. I was thinking it would be best to put him down. The office was closed so she said put him in a carrier on the porch for the night and see how he is today.

He finally let me pick him up. He was so weak what else could he do? I picked him up with one hand. He is almost 7 mo old.
I put a huge fluffy towel in with him and covered the carrier with a dish towel so two sides were covered. It was below freezing here last night. I put him in the corner of the porch where the wind wouldn't hit him. When I went to check on him at 1:30 in the morning I thought sure he was gone. He was just sleeping.

He ate really good today twice. The vet said they could come and get him and take him in to see if he can be helped. They don't open until 1pm on Thursdays. I called the vet and she has a new recptionist so she won't do anything until she checks it out with the vet. So I am waiting on her to return my call.

Meanwhile poor Mike has been in that carrier since almost 6 last night. He's not drank any water even though I have offered it or gone to the bathroom that I know of.

I sure hope they can and will help him.

Please pray for us.

Note: he is on his way!!! The vet tech just picked him up.
