Humane Society wants to have Annie PTS!

[Soapets]

Annie has a Vet. appointment at 2:15 today. She sounded a little congested again last night and this morning and I'm really worried about her left eye. She didn't eat the best yesterday, either, according to my husband. She ate pretty well just a little while ago, and boy was she letting me know how hungry she was when I walked in the door when I got home from work!

She got into her poop in her litter box this morning, and got it all over ME when I picked her up to feed her when I first woke up! For some reason it's not quite so funny when it happens to me instead of to my husband! He had already left for work, so he didn't get to enjoy it much, though. She got a bath, and then I got a bath!

I'll post more this evening. Annie's appointment is at 2:15, and I have to pick my son up from school at 3:30 and take him to a 4:00 appointment. I probably won't have time to get back here until this evening..........

Annie weighed 12 ounces at the Vet. appointment today, up from 9 1/2 ounces on May 5th.

As for her eye, it is still showing some corneal erosion-like symptoms, and is developing a corneal scar. The Vet. says that Annie probably had some kind of viral infection that settled in that eye, Chlaymidial or something similar. She won't have good vision out of that eye because of the extensive corneal scar that is developing, but she should have at least light-perception vision with that eye. We need to keep instilling the ointment twice a day for as long as it takes.

As for her lungs and sinuses, there is still a little bit of congestion present but it is a lot better than it was before. We just need to keep giving her the Amoxi twice a day until it's all gone.

And we're supposed to keep on feeding little Annie as much as she wants to eat, whenever she wants to eat it.

We have to go back for a re-check of the left eye next week, on the 24th at 2:00.

And I'll have more PICTURES to post tomorrow evening............

Sounds good.

What a shame that her little eye will be scarred and leave damage. Poor little girl. Of course, as we have all learned from the many sight impaired kitties on PT that it probably won't bother her at all!!!
Keep on eating little Annie and take your meds like a good girl. One day soon you will be all well and helping your little brother Shadow tear up the house!

Such good news about little Annie's progress and weight gain! Poor little girl has certainly been through the wringer in her short life. Way to go, little Annie! Keep fighting, look how far you've come! Lots of hugs to you. Can't wait to see how much cuter she is since the last pictures... if she can get any cuter. My best wishes to meowmie and pawpie, too!!!

Congratulations on the good weight gain.
It's too bad about her little eye, but like Lisa said, with all the visually impaired kitties on here, she should have no problem adjusting to it.
I'm glad to hear that she is getting better with the Amoxi.
Keep getting well and stronger Little Annie. You have such a long, good life ahead of you.

Fabulous job meowmie & pawpie. Bless you both.

Good job on the weight gain little Annie. You are doing so well. So sorry to her about her eye. Poor little baby she has gone through so much. She is a fighter and if it wasn't for your love and persistance in saving her she may not have made it this far. She will do just fine no matter what the future holds for her eye. She's a real spitfire and she is in the best place she can possibly be as you love her and care for her so much. Keep up the good work.

It was two weeks ago today that the Humane Society staff told me there wasn't any hope for her. I consider this to be two weeks into the "second" of her "nine" lives. Every day that goes by is another day to be thankful for her continued progress. She is growing stronger every day, and will hopefully continue to do so.

Just keep the prayers coming, and she can do nothing BUT get better!

Hey there, sweet little Annie! How are you feeling today? Please tell meowmie and pawpie I said hello?

Annie crawled up in the fold of the "Cat Pad" that was in her carrier, peeking out over the top of it:

HELP! MEOWMIE! GET HER OFF! GET HER OFF OF ME, I TELL YA!



That's all the pictures for today. Annie is out exploring a little now, as Shadow must be taking a nap somewhere.

She has learned to SPIT OUT HER MEDICINE (Amoxi) when I give it to her! She's getting ornery, the little fart!
