The Visit

Aurora has been to the vet and she exhausted herself throughout the visit. She found refuge with “Ned” the Lobster and also on the chest of a kindly stranger as we were checking out. She has major issues with her eyes including cloudiness to her lens of her eye that keeps swelling shut. We have special meds to give her, a special diet to keep her on because of the Giardia and keep giving her fluids when she becomes dehydrated. I need to buy a pet fountain tomorrow, mine are all dead in the water (no pun intended)

Laps are much more comfortable if they have a lobster on them!

Molly was a total surprise. We were able to handle her without sedation! She got a bit grumpy when her hair was being plucked out of the wounds. She was not bitten by an animal- she had foxtails that had somehow gotten embedded in her fur and worked their way down into her skin and into her body. I am to keep her on the antibiotic and put some antibiotic ointment into the wounds twice a day. That’s going to be quite the challenge! I think she was just so painful that she accepted everything that was done to her without turning into the cat who guards the gates of Hell. LOL I was quite relieved and proud of her.

  1. Poor Molly. It seems that cats have a thousand ways of being hurt, don’t they? And Aurora has a long way to go, but at least she is going!

  2. Foxtails can really do a number on a kitty, so I’ve heard. Molly and Aurora have a good fighting chance, now that you are in their corner!
