Updates on Lulu and Kittenz

Look at who am opening her right eye!!!

Thank you for all your purrs and special thanks

to Karen Alcorn who kindly sent some funds to help with the kittens' vet visits.

So thankful that Lulu won't lose her eye. This photo was taken at the vets on Saturday.

She still shies away from bright light and there is a white spot in her cornea where the ulcer is healing.  All the kittens are still having runny noses so Dr. Johnson prescribed more clavamox for the next two weeks.  They will have another check up on Saturday the 13th.

Also Doobie Davey is getting nuetered on Thursday.  Hoping that will help calm his tummy.  Doobie and Lil Joe were playing Sunday evening... So funny.  Doobs rarely does anything save sleep and ask for catnip.  He has no idea what toys are for.  

At first, Doobie just watched Joey run all over the living room. Then when Joey jumped at his Uncle Doobie, Doobs just looked at me like he thought Joey was crazy.  So I said, "Doobie, Joey just wants to play, honey.  Remember what play is?  Did you play with your sister?"  Doobie got this "oh!" look on his face and started playing tag with Joey!  And he was really gentle too.  Too bad I didn't get a photo... well maybe next time.

Saturday's vet visit cost $70.12

The two visits before cost $185.46 for a total of 255.58

The emergency Vet visit for Joey was 153.00 (via care credit card)

So far the kittens vet expenses have come to 408.58.  (This isn't counting food and litter and stuffs like that...)

Karen Alcorn graciously sent 25.00 to my paypal account - rec'd 23.72 with a note that said, "With love from Tasha, Buddy and Angel Gypsy (with Mum Karen) @ http:\\kazpluscats.blogspot.com"  In Gypsy's memory, will be drawing this photo of him:

 Gypsy RIP January 1995 to 24 January 2011

 

After the donation, had $24.38 in my PayPal account.  $24.00 of the donation was applied to the kittens vet bill, while the .38 cents went toward the donation made for Marigold's auction. (Item # 39)  Sweet Marigold's mom can be found at http://hevensentmecat.blogspot.com/ 

Doobs neutering will only be $30.00 due to a low cost clinic.  He will also get his rabies and kitty "flu" shots which costs $10.00.  The shots will be paid for by an org called RETAIN which helps with pets getting spayed and nuetered.  Usually RETAIN pays the whole bill, but they are strapped for funds and can only pay the shots.

And More vet visits to come for the kittens.  They all still need FIV/FLV testing, de-worming, kitten booster shots and spayed/neutered. 

Just an FYI...  since Dr. Johnson isn't able to accept Care Credit, the 255.58 came out of funds budgeted for buying a new cell phone to keep in contact with my disabled Mom (my current one is dead... thanks Samsung for selling a defective phone) and property taxes for my house, which were due two months ago.

I'm looking into setting up an account at http://www.youcaring.com/ which doesn't charge for receiving funds.  If anyone has info about the site, please let me know.  In the meantime, the Paypal "donation" link still works...Any bit for the foster kits would help so much...

Purrz of thanks from all kittenz and katz,

Katie Kat.

Monday Movie Lulu Kitty Update

Dearest Friends of the internets, 
Dis Am Doobie Davey repurritn about Weekend Happenings.

My niece Lulu am doin sum betters.  Hur investigated bouncy ball and dangly cotton drawstring belt thingy by herself on Friday nite.

On Saturday, her went to Willowbend Vet Clinic wif her brofur and sisfurs.  Dey all gotted bigger now and all weigh a half pound more den dey dids last week!

Da Doctor Vet checked Lulu’s right eye and said da ulcer am healing, but wif a scar on her cornea.  Da scar looked pink so dat means it am healing.  But Lulu no likes bright light.  Dat hurts to looks at light so hur stay in da carrier a lot cause it am darker in dere.  Her likes to sit in da Mom’s lap and cuddle.   Da Doctor Vet said to keep putting meds in Lulu’s eyes bout 3 times a day.  And him gave the Mom sum lysine stuffs to give to in alla kittens to eats to keeps da herpes virus away.   

Here am Kittens at da Vet's Second Visit.

Annie crawls under the cabinet ledge. Furry Funny.

Kitty girls run into carrier when Vet Assistant opens the door.

After da vet visit alla da kittens hads a long naps.  Sunnyday Lulu camed outa da carrier more!  Me gonna keep purring fur Lulu to get all well. Lulu needs another check up next Saturday. 

I gotz newz bout me too.  Da Vets am testing mai poops cuz dey gets smelly and runny.  Me sorry Mom.  Well dey bin real smelly frum corn so Mom tried Corn free foods, but dat not help too much. Just smelled better.  So dis weekend Mom let me eat sum Iams Kitten foods cuz it got sumpin called probiotics in it.  So I hopes dat helps my tummy feel better and not have da runs alla time.  If dat helps din Mom gets me sum big boy Iams foods (dey gots probiotics too) for me to eats wif mai corn free food.   Duz any cats know good stuffs for sensitive tummies like mines???

Purrz,

Doobie Davey.

Wonderful Wednesday Kittens in the Bathtub

Due to schedule conflicts caused by Monday's power outage,
Lulu's checkup has been changed to Friday... 

Since she prefers to spend most of her time in the carrier which may be due to vision issues, last night I coaxed her into playing bouncy ball with her brother Lil Joe (Joey).

Purrz, Katie Kat. 

P. S. The outage Monday was due to a squirrel inside the substation which caused a small explosion.  Power came back on for most of the 10,000 residents affected in about an hour and a half, including Nana's neighborhood.
