The Christmas Story

Luke 2 - King James Version

2 And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be taxed. (And this taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria.)

3 And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city.

4 And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judaea, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem; (because he was of the house and lineage of David:)

5 To be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child.

6 And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were accomplished that she should be delivered.

7 And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn.

8 And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.

9 And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid.

10 And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.

11 For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.

12 And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.

13 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,

14 Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.

Meowry Christmas Eve Purrz Fur Gordo and Miracle Stuff

Hiya everyfurry one on Christmas Eve and stuffs
Chiquita helping Mom blog again. We haz Sunday Selfie photos from Gordo at the Vets Last night...

We know lots of cats and dogs gets their posts done the night before...
Katie Mom and Auntie Silvia were in the Vet Emergency Hospital with Gordo late last night.
The cost was $239.00 that needs repaid... If you can helps with that, plz paypal to laugh_safely at yahoo dot come. thanks so much.

He had a urethra removal surgery over a year ago and sometimes he gets UTI. Gordo got an antibiotic and a pain meds and will see his usual vet after Christmas.

We are furry worried about Gordo. He eats good, but lost seven pounds over last two years... He is only 8 1/2 pounds when he should be 10 or 11. He had blood tests run and thyroid levels are on border of hyperthyroid, blood sugar ok. ER doctor said could be chronic mild urinary infections that go undetected. Auntie Silvia tells me my cousin Gordo gotted furry sick as little boy and almost didn't make it... we don't know if that has anything to do with his health now.

Please keep Gordo in your purrz and prayers.
You can read posts about Gordo here (http://katiezfurrymewz.blogspot.com/search/label/Gordo)

On a furry goods note, Peaches and Paprika gotted their You Tube Holiday slide show up now...
Our Christmas Card am about time 3:39! Ours features Jeremiah Midnight resting on a blankie, one of our foster kitties who am now with Cattails in Manhattan. We all voted and thought him looked soo sweet dat he could be our spokes-cat this year.

If you hazn't gotted our Chrissymouse card badge yet, here it am again:

And now fur a little Christmas / Hanukkah Miracle story as purrmiced.

This miracle happened on the last night of Hanukkah last week. And Hanukkah am all about miracles! 

Katie Mom hauled truck and trailer. Her had not driven a truck with a trailer on it fur a gazillion years! (well maybe twenty or so... mol - Katie Mom)

Well first when you gets to the transfer station.... you haz to pay some moneys up front while on the first scale. So Mom did that and left her waist pack open by mistake.  While throwing all the wood from an old RV and yucky trash out, some of the wood lifted up the bag and her billfold fell out...

Mom didn't notice until back on the second scale after emptying.  Mom, the other worker with her and a trash employee moved all the yucky trash and they all purred and prayed and stuffs.... Mom felt a funny peace and didn't panic.  and then her billfold gotted founded! Mom did her happy dance and hugged everfurry body!  But forgotted to make sure all the cards and Drivers License was still there... her has no idea why she didn't notice when finishing paying the rest of the fees at the empty scale.

Well later that night while at the store, looking fur store fuel points card - that's when she noticed credit cards and driver's license missing... and that's when her tried to worry again... yet that Holiday Peace came over her again.  Mom had to wait until the next day. She called the trash transfer place and Lo and behold!!! They had her driver's license.  Still had to call credit card companies... though.  Still dat's our Hanukkah and almost Christmas Day miracle.


See you tomorrows... 
Happy Christmas Eve,
Purrz and Prayers,
Chiquita and the Katie Katz
Gordo and Auntie Silvia

Chica (l) Chico (r)

Chico and Chica, two outdoor kitties have not been caught yet.

The rest of Marco, Polo and Lady Grey's family (about six more kitties) needs fixed and to haz homes.

Auntie Silvia (Gordo's mom) needs new contacts so she can renew her driver's license and apply for good jobs and her car keeps having trouble - Uncle Mike has put in two alternators and still not working right...

Pam has not been able to move into her trailer because the owner of the trailer park where the trailer is staying won't let her. The gal who is selling the trailer to Pam wants me to go down to Mulvane with her and be a witness to how the owner is acting. (I still think that Pam should move up to Wichita where there is a trailer park willing to move the mobile home for free, and Pam's son-in-law will be able to get work)

This is the time of year when recycling metal slows down due to weather changes... Purring and Praying that we will be able to continue to raise funds. We have three appliances that are good and can sell them, we have lots of stuffs in the garage to sell - purr that the Mom gets help to get more things ready.




And we am furry thankful always fur all our internet friendz...

So mice to see you today!

Gordo Needs Your Help ASAP

Update: Doc decided to just do the antibiotics for now and wait on the steroid shot to see if antibiotics works. Bill was only 45.00! We got a sweet donation from a wonderful cat blogger that covered the bill so far ❤ //

Last year Gordo, one of Silvia's cats, had to have Perineal urethrostomy, the surgery that unblocks a male kitty's urinary tract by removing the urethra...







This makes him susceptible to urinary tract infections... he has also been having trouble keeping on enough weight and on the blood panel last year, his thyroid indicating level was near the border of needing thyroid meds.

On Wednesday, Silvia and I took him to the vet, because he had been howling and throwing up his food... Dr. Mahoney wanted to do the blood panel first before checking anything else. His results yesterday did not show a change in his thyroid levels, but did show signs of a urinary tract infection... KFM was able to pay for the blood panel from metal scrap and a personal donation... (came to 95.00)

Now he needs antibiotics and an anti-inflammatory shot which will be only 75.00 - Can you help Gordo get well by sparing even five or ten dollars?

If three people only sent 20.00, I can cover the rest. Once he gets his meds, he will feel like eating again... Poor boy - we love him so much.

Thank you so much in advance.

You can paypal to laugh_safely @ yahoo dot com using gift to friends
or call Arapahoe Veterinary Clinic and ask to put credit on Silvia Espinosa's account
so we can bring Gordo in to be treated. Phone number is 316 262 6491

Saturday Free Vet Clinic Day Selfies

Free Clinic Day Sponsored by 

Sedgwick County Animal Response Team (SCART)

Check In: Silvia with Mama Cat and Four kids

The all day SCART event took place on Saturday, March 11 at Wichita's Interfaith Ministries with a makeshift clinic set up in their basement.

SCART in cooperation with Inter-Faith Ministries hosted the bi-annual pet wellness clinic event, which also function as practice drills for animal response volunteers while offering free pet wellness exams, vaccinations and city license information for pets whose owners are experiencing or have recently experienced homelessness or poverty.  

Exams were provided by Skaer Veterinary Clinic and services were free of charge.  Information about no cost spay and neuter options was also available. The event was limited to dogs and cats. Proof of low income was required, by appointment only set up several months ago.


Cold day yesterday. Mostly dog owners came to event. The outdoor receiving and registration area was cordoned off to help keep loose doggies from running away.  All the tables were covered by canopies.

Silvia's four kids are seven years old. Mama Cat is about eight.

After filling out paperwork for each kitty, carriers were tagged to correspond with each kitty's paperwork. Then Silvia, a volunteer and I carried the carriers over to a covered semi-circle waiting area of chairs covered by a large canopy before going in the building.

The Cat exam room was actually the women's restroom.  

Natasha was first to be seen. She watched Mama Silvia a lot to know what to do. She was very good and wasn't scared. Every kitty had their teeth checked, bladder and abdomen checked, overall health. Then received distemper and rabies shots, and topicals for deworming and fleas. 

Guero, who had been having diarrhea problems this last week, was thankfully well enough now to get his vaccinations. Dr. Christen Skaer checked both Guero and Gordo's surgeries. Gordo PU surgery, only a few weeks ago, was healing well. (PU = perineal urethrostomy).

Sometimes Mama Narcisca gets a brown discharge. Silvia asked Dr. Skaer about that and she suggested that Mama be checked for crystal problems in her urine since two of her boys had to have PU surgery for crystal blockage. 
 
Two of the flea products they had on hand were Frontline or Cheristin. Had not heard of Cheristin before. (Cheristin FAQs) Cheristin is apparently safer for young cats and kittens. (FAQ page states, "Low-volume dose is effective for all cats 1.8 pounds or greater")

Vet Exam Kitty Selfies:

After examinations, Kitties were checked out at the "Reclaim" Table. Silvia was told by Dr. Skaer and SCART that if any kitty seemed to be having a reaction, take to ER to be checked and treated and treatment would be paid for.  Every kitty received paperwork and a rabies tag in an envelope.
 
Review of the event: 
One little dog got loose and happily ran around excited. The volunteers were calm and easily helped the little dachshund return to his Mama.

Two of the topicals were placed too low below the cat's collars. When Silvia got her kitties home, they started trying to groom each other and began gagging and drooling. If the topicals had been put just above the collar line, would have been harder for the siblings to get it in their mouths during mutual grooming.

Natasha did not take to all the vaccinations and topicals as well as Mom and her littermates. She curled up in a ball and refused to eat. She also staggered to the litterbox. We took her to the ER for a checkup. At ER, Silvia was told that only the checkup would be covered and not any treatment if needed. After some discussion (heated), Natasha's treatment was also covered (Benedryl shot).

In Conclusion: Event went well and very organized. Plenty of volunteers who were professional and calm - very good with animals. However I will be contacting SCART to find out why ER said that treatment was not covered, only the exam if needed.
