I'll give you a hint....we like kitties!

Hey I need some aresenal built up for when Fran starts to send me back up into the salt mines of packing up #4 for so that the contractor can start work on it. Once we get back it will be hard labor to get that one ready for rehab and rental. Remember there are like 400 boxes up there that need to come down and go to storage!

TruBlu · 02-06-2013, 10:02 PM

Don't think about that yet... Think about that tomorrow!!!!

Safe travels, my sweet friend!

Hang on to that meat.

OK, officially packing up the computer now. Our suitcases are all packed, we are about to call the bellman and go check the luggage. Then it's on to get something to eat! (and coffee!)

So I have a scary, but not unfortunate or tragic (at least not yet and hopefully not) update.

Normally I wouldn't be posting from the plane, but just before take off, I got a call from my cleaning lady, Darcy. She went over today to clean up our house, take care of any unpleasant cat things that might make our trip home less than enjoyable.

We spoke a couple times from when I got on the bus for ME until her last call just before take off. She told me that my "special" cat, Sunny was crying in a ghastly manner and she was afraid that Sunny was dying. She told me that her brother (with the car) had just come over and they were taking her to the vet.

Well I haven't been able to talk to Darcy directly as she doesn't have a smart phone or email or anything, but thanks to Facebook and kind friends, one of my real life FB friends called her and got an update.

She survived the trip to the vet. They have her on fluids and nutrition. There is no diagnosis as of yet, but her heart rate is fine, so let's hope a few days in the kitty hospital and she will be well enough to come home and on the road to recovery. We'll check in when we land, and I'm waiting with baited breath with FB open hoping that Darcy will check in. That's the only online that she does.

Sunny is the small one on the right with the collar.

Leshaface · 02-07-2013, 08:15 PM

Oh no. I'm hoping Sunny is doing better now that fluids are running through her. She's not old right? Does she have a medical condition that you know of?

She's older than we thought she would ever make it. She will be eight this year. She has Cerebellar Hypoplasia which means that the motor skills part of her brain did not form properly. She falls down when she walks, rolls over a few times and bangs herself on the furniture all the time. She also has a form of herpes that feral cats develop. It's not an STD, but something that compromises her immune system so that she is more suceptible to all kinds of illnesses.

I knew something was "not right" with her before we left, but nothing I could pin point or tell a doctor. Just a feeling from the way she was acting. Hopefully they will figure it out and she will get better and have a few more years.

Oh wow. Has she been on medication since you've had her? When will you find out more information?

I hope they'll have some information when the plane lands. I can't turn on my cell phone and at 10,000 feet there's no reception. I paid for the one day package of WiFi to try and get info and have been keeping myself occupied on the DIS. I'll call Darcy as soon as we land, and then probably the vet once we get the car loaded.

We'll just have to go from there. Hopefully it is something simple and just needs treatment. There's no medication for her condition, just patience. When she feels good she gets around fine, as is the best of all our cats at communicating what she wants. I just hope she is OK and can come home with us, and is able to recover and quickly. I'm sure for now, she has a few nights in the hospital.

Enjoying your report! I'm heading to Kidani for the first time, in May! Sorry to hear about your kitty. Hope she is okay.
