Babies Vet Visit


Imrlgoddess

904 views

I took the muffins in this morning to see our family vet.  They hadn't gained any significant weight all week and I was worried. He said they were close to dehydration and gave them both some fluid. 

They've been fed twice since the visit and ate a little better than they did yesterday. Dr. Lambert is an older fellow who still practices simply because he adores animals, honestly I don't know how he stays in business because he works with everyone who walks in the door. He told me to keep feeding them like I have been, with Pedialyte mixed into their formula. He also told me to feed them water to help combat the dehydration. 

He was hopeful but honest given that I don't know the condition of their mother & what she may or may not have had going on. Please keep lifting them up & lighting candles for them.  The muffins and I appreciate ya'lls prayers. 

New pictures coming soon. :my_shy:

Will double down on the candles and incense---and may you and your dear spouse be blessed richly for all that you are doing for the babies.

My thoughts and well wishes are with you and the muffins.  Fluids and more fluids.  A hard road - but I hope everything works out for you all.  And many blessings on Dr. Lambert.  Those old fashioned vets are the best.

I'll ask Lady Bast to watch over the babies. Tiny kittens are so hard - thank you for taking care of the pretty babies!

May all the Blessed Eternals, by whatever name one calls Holy, look kindly upon those small cat-momma-less-babies.  

(No insult meant, Imrlgoddess, but you are NOT a Usual kitty-momma who can make good milk with colostrum and keep them perfectly snuggly---but I admire immensely your attempts, and ask the Deity's blessings and aid for you in your compassion.)  May they be graced to become Big Mighty Huntahs, growing in health and strength.  

But if this is not to be: may they have an easy going, and wait happily on Rainbow Bridge for escorts into Wonderful Joy.

A thousand's worth and another thousand's times worth of blessings on rescuers of all sorts, and a million-eleventy blessings on animal professionals (*paging Dr. Lambert, DVM!*) who use their skill and resources to help---and kinda forget about the weekly budget for rent, meds, and insurance for a while, while they work to relieve suffering.

In peace and hope, and remaining sincerely yours,

samira

I can't top @samira_catlover's blessing (and I would never try), but I wish you, Thor, and Hestia good things. It really is tricky when you don't know what happened to or with their bio-mom. I'll keep hoping and praying for y'all.

Wishing you and you kitties well. Alfie approves of rescuing kitties. He was tiny once. Sigh......image.jpeg

@Blahblah: Oh, gosh, there's another kitty who likes to play at being Roadkill.  Our Senior Cat from a shelter, Lucky (?maybe part Maine Coon?--any road, he is a HUGE kitty) sprawls out the EXACT same way.  Dunno whether he's trying to dump excess heat or whether he just wants a belly rub.

Health and strength to all the horrible spoiled-rotten awful FurryBrats (yes, even canines: the Eternal made them, so there must be a good reason) who share our lives----and lots of the same, plus good wishes and hope, for FurBabies in shelters and foster homes!

Thank y'all so much! They ate well last night & this morning. I've upped the water intake so it seems to be helping. I discovered the most wonderful thing when cleaning Little Thor's face, He Purrs!  It's the cutest damn thing ever! 

@Blahblah that's a big kitteh! That's where I hope these end up. Spoiled & poofy.

      People haven't donated because of social media algorithms. Yeah, that must be it. And can we please stop calling it fundraising and "meeting needs"? You aren't a charity.

      I will add that this guy also talked about her being mentally I’ll a lot. Which reminds me so much of Greg Locke. Who used mental illness as an excuse as to why he could divorce his first wife in order to be with the church secretary 🙄 It seems like a lot of pastors like to weaponize mental illness to their own benefit. And honestly if he did groom her and abuse her like many have said, of course she would be depressed. Who wouldn’t?

      While I agree a universal basic income would be a huge help for many (me included!!),

      I’m not sure it would make much of a difference. Because if everyone got it, I bet it would only massively increase inflation. Kind of like the cost of living is different in different countries and is usually higher where the average income is higher.

      I don’t see a problem with not wanting to leave the house every single day.

      Wow, I couldn’t imagine. The only times I don’t leave the house on a daily basis are when I’m sick (and even then, unless I’m REALLY sick I try to at least go for a walk to get some fresh air or walk to the pharmacy if I need to pick up medicine). And very very rarely on a lazy Sunday when I’m home alone and get the chance to do nothing but sewing all day. But that happens maybe once a year.

      I just feel really bad and lazy and unhealthy when I stay in all day.
