Hmmmppphhhffff!!

I am a bit upset with Meomw today! I wanted to do the "3 new things meme", but Meowm didn't hold up her end of the job. I can't work the flashy box thing, she has to do it and she didn't! Instead she made the potato soup that Derby's Mom posted. I don't care about soup! I don't want to eat it! I wanted help with the meme! And I wanted some attention! What's that Meowm? You have something to say? Alright.....

Junior, I will have to wait till this weekend to get one of the pictures because I need light for that picture. So you will have to wait till Monday for the meme. And we did play with the red dot last night, and I petted you and hugged you. So you DID get some attention.

Alright Meowm, I guess I did get SOME attention, and I guess I can wait till Monday for the meme. But if it doesn't happen on Monday, the war is on! I will headbump you, groom your hair and meow at you till you can't stand it!

I hear ya Junior, I hear ya!

An Award for me!

My new friend Java gave me this award. Isn't it great? Thanks Java!

I think everyone has received this award. But I will tag Casper and Marley.

Keeping Warm Over the Weekend

It has been bitterly cold so I snuggled up in my millie bed with my blanket that Grandmeowm made for me for Christmas and took a bath. Then I took a nap!

Fabulous Friday!

I always love it when it is Friday cause that means my Meowm will be around more. I wish I could have her home all day, evertday, but I know she has to go to the jobbie place so she can feed us. If good looks could bring home money, I would make us rich! Imagine how wealthy all our beans would be if our good looks brought home the money!

Thoughtless Thursday

Meowm and I don't want to think today.....so we are gonna nap!

Wordless Wednesday

My butt hurts and Meowms arm hurts.....

As you can see Meowm and I had a little disagreement. Actually Meowm was petting me and I had a disagreement with that. I don't mean to hurt her. I haven't done this to her for a long time. She swatted my butt and I ran away and hid under the bed. And then Meowm felt bad. Then I came out when I heard the water running in the big tub in the human litterbox room. So that picture of me is in the human litterbox room after all this happened.

Meezer Monday and Mao is home!

What? Mao is home? You mean I don't need to get shipped to Skeezix house to help look for Mao? Darn it!!! I so wanted to meet Skeezix in purrson! Ah well, I sure am glad Mao is back. I don't like seeing my Meowm worried.

Now we must all keep Annie in our purrayers. We need to purray for courage for her to run back in that house to be safe and sound!

And my buddy Latte is feeling poorly! He needs our purrayers too! I know his Meowm worries about him extra when he gets sick after all the issues he had when he was young.

Mao is off on another adventure....

And we are all worried about him. COME HOME MAO!!!!

We will be saying purrayers for Mao to return home and for comfort for his family.

Treats Thursday

Meowm put some of my treats out for the outside kitties this morning! I was in a panic thinking she was giving them MY temptations.....but it turns out she was giving them some other treats that I don't eat anymore.....cause she ran out of dry food. They also got stinky goodness and some of my special meezer dry food. Meowm told me not to worry she would get more of their food tonite and she wouldn't have to dip into mine anymore. I don't mind sharing...but some things are sacred!

Toysday

Meowm and I played a bit last night. I LOVE this thing that Meowm puts on her paw! It comes with all kinds of mousies! I attack those mousies, but I can never quite

Meezer Monday

Thank you all so much for your kind words after Baby Lily's passing. It helped Meowms heart to heal. We have just been taking it easy and staying out of the cold weather. We have had more of that white stuff...Meowm is ready for it to be gone. I have to agree with her...I am not enjoying the cold. Even with curling up on Meowms coat...I am still chilly. I haven't been spending as much time sleeping on my tree cause it is just to chilly in front of the big windows, so it is back to the millie bed, as well as Meowms coat.

Meowm continues to feed the other strays. Meowm is concerned about a couple of other babies out there. One that she has just recently begun seeing has some damage to the right eye...it looks pretty bad. Meowm will get the trap tomorrow and hopefully get that baby trapped quickly. There is also another one that is about the size that Baby Lily was...maybe from the same litter, that is sick. Meowm hopes to trap that one second.

Everyone have a great week!

**Meowm finally talked to the vet that took care of Baby Lily. Nothing in her blood or urine pointed to a specific cause for her illness. The vet says it wasn't anitfreeze cause that shows up. He said something attacked either her liver or her blood or both. He also told Meowm that one of the first things that became compromised after the seizures started was her eyesight.....it blinded Baby Lily. Meowm's heart is broke all over. She just figured Baby was sniffing and her eyes were funny cause of the drugs, not cause she couldn't see. She must have been so scared. The vet also said she wasn't exhibiting symptoms of any plant poisoning. He felt bad because he wanted to have some solid answers, but there weren't any to be had. He thanked Meowm for caring about this stray and she thanked him for taking care of her. Meowm asked him if it could have been something genetic and he didn't think so, he figured she was to old (even though she wasn't very old) for it to be something like that. Meowm is at least relieved that maybe the other little ones like her may not have what she had.**

Rest in Peace Baby Lily

At approximately 6:45 pm tonite Baby Lily was humanely put to sleep. Meowm got to her around 4:30 pm and she had a seizure at 4:55. She was given valium, but continued having seizures for a total of 4 more up until 5:55pm. (For every seizure she was given more valium). Then she rested peacefully for awhile. Meowm talked to her and petted her the whole time. Baby was able to pick up her head a few times and sniff Meowm and also had the strength to growl a bit at Meowm at one time. But the seizures were to numerous and Meowm and the vet were sure she had been having others all day long....it is just that she wasn't being watched every minute....so rather than have her continue hurting, she was put to sleep. Meowm talked to her before the medicine was administered and told her that she was going some place warm and beautiful, where there would always be a sunbeam to lie in and where no one and no other animal would hurt her. Meowm told her to look for China (she who came before me) and that when Meowm crosses the bridge that Baby would be hers and she could live with us. Then Meowm held her paw and had her other hand on Baby's side, and when Meowm couldn't feel her body breathing the doctor listened and she had a bit of a heartbeat left...so Meowm continued touching her and talking to her till she was gone.

I gotta go take care of Meowm now. Thank you all for your purrayers for Baby and for Meowm.

Baby/Lily update

**Update as of 3:16 pm MST. The vet is trying a different medicine on Baby-Lily and she is on an IV for food. She is not responding to any of the beans at the vet so Meowm is gonna go up there at 4 and be with her to see if that will help.**

Meowm just talked to the vet tech and she has been having more seizures. They are waiting for the vet who first worked on her to get to work and then she will be re-evaluated, but it apparently does not look good. If they decide to euthanize Meowm will be there with her. Meowm is waiting for their call to see which way things will go. I will keep you all posted. Meowms eyes are leaking.

Update on Baby, she is at the vet

I was able to find a rescue organization (of one)today to help me with her. I left work at 1:30, scooped her up at home and this lady, Diane, met me at the vet. Diane scooped her right up and held her....and promptly said she is sick....and I said yes.
Meowm was able to post this last night on a couple of sites:

Baby is now named Lily. She is FIV, FELV negative. Her blood tests were okay, she has a respiratory infection and her urine has blood and protein in it. She had a seizure before I left and they think she ate something bad.....but they have no idea what. She wasn't dehydrated and was running a fever. They are going to keep her in isolation probably for a week. I will call on Wednesday to see how she is doing. If she survives I will take her back into my home and at least foster her. I am not sure how feral she might be....I am not sure if she will tame down enough to be able to adopt out to someone, but time will tell.

Right now I am heartbroken and exhausted....Junior decided he had to talk most of the night for some odd reason and I didn't get much sleep. However I am off to a friends house to see in the New Year rather than sit at home and worry.

Lets hope and pray that Baby/Lily survives to see a better year and a better life. Thank you all for your support....I would have been a bigger mess without it.
