Its not well.......... Found it on the street
Got a brain injury & is really thin & scruffy ( Bit like me)
Anyways I've had it to the vet & its been checked & prodded
Mr Vet very proudly presented me with a Bill :rolleyes:
Its Had a X-ray, MRI Scan, more injections than you can shake a stick at ............. We got some pain killer medcine for it too :)
I really thought I was gonna die but after a couple of nights here it seems a lil better
Big Problem is it keeps walking around in circles (not as much as it did tho) & thats a really bad sign :(
Gonna call it "Sponge" I fink :t

well it's nice that you put that much effort and money into that poor creature, but don't you think it would have been better off putting it out of it's misery.. I only ask this cuz I care more for animals then I do most people..:D

I was ready for that......... Was expecting Mr Vet to suggest it :(
But The lil fluffball deserves a break, & like I said it is improving, So we will have to see what occurs :)
With it now being looked after & Mr vet wiv his pills & potions it has a chance...... If it comes to sad decision time at least I will of tried :-@

j.m@talk...agrees with mireland...very nice thing you're doing. I hope your tender loving effort pays off.
We took in a farrel cat 3 yrs ago, who had a bad habit of biting if you picked her up and sinking her claws into your thigh. Within 3-4 months she was sleeping in the bed next to your head.
She also made her contributions by providing mice & chipmunks at the door. They know when they've got a good thing and respond to a little kindness.
She disappeared on 4rth of July, probably spooked by fireworks and locked in someones garage. In the mean time we moved and returning for odds and ends, she was found 3 1/2 weeks later, extremely thin and has been wolfing down food like crazy and is starting to come around.
Maybe when your knew found friend recovers, zybch might send you a little cat-nip

For a mere $50,000. USD, Genetic Savings and Clone will clone the cat for you.....then you can have THREE retards:D
the problem with cats is they breed.

thats wot happens when you nick someones cat an hold it against its will, some poor little girl is probably at home crying and asking her mum where her cats gone.

you need to put a $ limit out there. I love my cats but there basiclly throw away parts. If they cost you more than say $200 a year get rid of them, go to spca & get a new for $20 donation.women can't rationalize the cost factor w/ animals, that what makes men smarter. got to know when to go!:t

Mmmm, catnip. I just got some over eBay, my little girl cat goes ape over the stuff :) Her brother couldn't care less.
Cost about 80c and has been well worth it, almost as much fan as making them chase my laser pointer.

Someone posted your ebay purchase about that time, and then the thread dissolved.
BTW...does catnip lose it's appeal when it becomes dated.
We're cat sitting (3rd time) for a washer/dry (just installed) and the male Russian Blue's carring case came with catnip, but neither our female ferrel cat, nor theirs have any interest in the stuff

The cats need to have reached sexual maturity before catnip has any effect, even then only 40%-50% of cats will go crazy about it.
I'm not sure if de-sexing them will affect how they react either, my boy cat got the snip as soon as it was safe, his sister will get 'done' soon as when she is in heat she is really embarasing and will 'put out' to anything that moves :) the luttle slut.

Fresh Catnip is best. I used to grow it and then if I rubbed against it, got the oils on my clothes, they'd all go absolutely nuts!!!!
As for laser pointers, what a blast that can be, poor things don't realize it's just a dot of light. Chase it all over til they fall down from exhaustion.,:D
