Thankful Mewz and Blind Kitty Update.

On Tuesday, I took Lovey to Arapahoe Animal Clinic to have her eyes checked...

Turns out dearest girl has Progressive Retinal Atrophy. Lovey has too few blood vessels feeding the retina in both eyes. Sometimes this is reversible, sometimes not. Lovey will be five months on weighs only 3 and a half pounds. Most kitties her age weigh around five pounds. Please keep Lovey in your purrz...

According to Pet Education website:
The photo receptors in cat retinas develop after birth to about 8 weeks of age. In PRA, the photoreceptors develop in the kittens, but as the cat ages, the receptors degenerate. Progressive rod-cone degeneration (PRCD) is the most common form of PRA in cats, and starts with night blindness and progresses to total blindness at 3 to 5 years of age...As the disease progresses, owners can observe a dilation of the pupils and the reflection of light from the back of the eye.

If the blindness is progressing slowly, the owner may not notice any signs until the cat is in unfamiliar surroundings and the lack of vision is more apparent. In some animals, the lens of their eyes may become opaque or cloudy.

Sometimes the condition is reversible. Lovey is related to the two "blind" boys that a wonderful lady adopted who works with Cattails Rescue in Manhattan Kansas. Marco and Polo must have had PRA, yet recovered for the most part - They still have delayed pupil light response and some seeing difficulties.

  Still good mewz to be thankful for. Yesterday, I drove 2 hours to Manhattan, Kansas to take Lady Grey (aka Baby Girl), Lovey and her litter mates, Faith, Hope and Oliver, to fixed at the KSU mobile vet unit (supported by PetsMart Charities), sponsored by Cattails Rescue Manhattan.  (I forgotted to take photos!!!)

Lady Grey went in one carrier, while kittens who like to hang out together went in two other carriers: Lovey and Faith in one and Oliver and Hope in the other. Faith and Hope look alike. The only way I can tell them apart is to see which one wants to be with which other kitty! After I figured that out yesterday morning, I put pink collar on Faith and an aqua collar on Hope. 

The kids and mom were very quiet on the trip up to Manhattan - they did really good during surgery too! Natalie of Cattails Rescue KS was there at the KSU mobile vet unit site to help put the carriers into the vet trailer.

I met their mew family when I dropped off the kitties.  Nicollette, Rick and their son Jonathan, since they had two girl cats needing spayed as well. They are so devoted to animal care taking and usually take in the fosters that no one else will, such as blind kitties like Lovey and shy kitties too. Lady Grey and her family are very quiet and shy.
 
After their surgeries, their mew family picked them up! All five Ninja kitties are going to be living in Junction City. I spoke to Nicollette and so far they are doing well, Lovey due to her blindness is taking time to adjust and Oliver who is furry shy is being a bit standoffish... yet all is well.  Oliver also has some delayed pupil light response, yet still seems to be seeing OK. Yet I do worry about him, due to his reticent behaviour around humans and new situations. Their mew family also has other kitties and pug dogs who think they are cats... Hopefully will have new photos furry soon!

Another bit of good mewz... longer story later .....
 Pam and her little doggies do not have to be out by

Friday from their home!!!  The trailer that Katiez Furry Mewz and Center of Hope helped make first payment (lease to own) on will be moved to Wichita, vs staying in a mobile park in Mulvane, due to rudeness of the Mulvane Park owner.  
 
The new trailer park owner where they may be moving to called Pam's current landlord and said a few words about the laws in Kansas... and now Pam has until December first to get ready to move into her new trailer! Thank you for all your purrz and prayers for Pam's situation! 

Still have work to do getting moved and hopefully the new trailer park owner will help with moving the trailer from Mulvane to Wichita.
 
And unfortunately... still have sewer backup - hoping that can get tackled this weekend...  More furry thankful mewz soon. 

Still the works of a pet caring ministry am nevers done... we are off to takes more metal to the scrap yard and find stuffoms to sell. If you can helps with funds of any size, please paypal to laugh_safely at yahoo dot com gift to friends. Every pawdy pitter patter bit helps, even prayers and kitty hugz.

The mom was able to gets her an appointment at a place called Center of Hope (she and the lady's daughter and boyfriend had to gets in line at 2:30 inda morning last Tuesday to make the appointment!). The appointment was Thursday and they are going to be able to help with most of the money for the first month's rent, but not all of dat - she needed 150 more. Well the mom mentioned it on Facebook and two folks sent 75.00 - and then yesfurday, someone donated a junk car and we gots the other 75.00 plus a $20 dollar donation! Hooray!

Furry Good Mewz Fur Dash and Blind Kitties

 





Friday brother and I took two blind kitties to a forever foster in Manhattan, Kansas.. These two boys are related to Baby Girl and the Ninja Kittens who are still hanging out in my bathroom waiting to go to their forever home.

I took them to the vet before brother and I drove to Manhattan, Kansas. Baby Boy 1 and Baby Boy 2 hanging out in carriers waiting for the Vet who was late getting back to his clinic...

 




Then when the vet finally came, I forgot to take photos! Dr. Johnson checked their eyes and the blindness is not being caused by cataracts. The pupils responded to light and Kitty Boy 1 kind of reacted to a cotton ball falling in front of him. They don't follow the movement of my hand. The blindness must be something neurological. Their mew foster and Cattails Rescue Manhattan, the rescue supporting her will have the kitties checked out at the College of Veterinary Medicine in Manhattan.



 

Marco

Polo

Here are the blind kitties first selfies in their mew home. They are hanging out in luxury suites while getting to know their mew hangout. Their mew foster mommy reports that they are getting lots of loves and cuddles and love being held.  A mew photo from today. Boy 1 is in the Luxury Suite and Boy 2 is sitting outside.  Their foster mommy just texted me that their mew Foster names are Marco and Polo! Marco is the three year old with white on his chest and Polo is the seventh month old boy... Purrz dear sweeties that all goes well fur your little boy oppurayshuns furry soon!

Marco on the left, Polo on the right

"Sit Dash!"

Just about a week ago, I posted goofy Dash my foster dog up on Facebook again..I was so worried about him not having an indoor home yet and weather changing soon. and the bestest home responded - a family with two other bull mastiffs! They came yesterday afternoon to pick him up. Dash finally has a real home!!! Dash was so excited to meet new people that he didn't eat his lunch! We had to work with him to calm down. They brought one of their bull mastiffs who has been trained as a service dog. They visited with him in the back yard for almost an hour before leaving. Here he is learning to sit for a milk bone from his new human sister. His new Mastiff girl friend behind him is Piper.

And here he is happy to get in the back of their van.
He loves car rides!

Dash and Piper in the van

His mew family has quite a few

Getting a new harness

folks in it, plus three other dogs and two cats!!
 
He is doing well with all the of them.. and of course the boy cats are letting him know they are the boss of the house MOL!!!

That's The Good Mewz this weekend! 

We are still needing to raise funds to get Baby Girl and the Ninja kittens fixed and to their forever home in Junction City. Unfortunately Spay and Neuter of Kansas refused to let me use their services, because I said these kitties were "rescued." For some odd reason, they don't help rescues get babies fixed before they go to a new home. Their new mommy would have to call and only if she lives in Wichita or moves there. (😿 What Spay and Neuter doesn't know is that I had been hoping to help them help more pets get fixed by raising funds in the near future... hmmm).

I am going to speak to Cattails and see if they can get Baby Girl and her kittens fixed if I raise the funds. Right now I know we will need at least $200.00 raised. Please consider sending any amount to help by paypal to laugh_safely at yahoo dot com using gift to friends.- I will speak to Cattails and see how much more they will need. Please keep Baby Girl and her kittens, Oliver, Faith, Hope and Lovey in your purrz that we can get their needs taken care of furry soon.  We will have a new You Caring campaign up asap. Please look for that update on the side of the blog and if you have Facebook - will be a notice there.




--- More Mewz next timez.

(if anyone of our readers uses another social media besides facebook, please let us know and we will try posting there as well)
