And speaking of blessed - Chiffy the miracle cat is making absolutely amazing progress. Hooray! She has already progressed to being able to clomper into her litter box, and drink and eat on her own. She's still very wobbly, but she's actually walking small amounts.
The last couple days were really traumatic, having to give her water by syringe, and a little people milk because at least she would drink it. What helped was the kitten formula I picked up instead. She loves real milk, but as I knew - and relearned very quickly, after at least getting her some of that into her, is that there can be some really yukky after effects to clean up. Eeeew.
Anyway, her progress has been nothing short of spectacular! Not out of the woods yet but unbelievably encouraging. I also picked up antibiotics today from the vet as it could be an inner ear infection. From Wednesday night when I thought about going to a 24 hour vet, and then decided to wait to take her to her own (much much hated) vet (who actually adores HER) feels like years.
The reason I delayed the vet visit was I was reading the Yelp comments about the 24 hour specialist place and they were all glowing about how much dignity was accorded, but I kept seeing one word over and over (euthanasia) and I just knew if I took her there, that would be it. Thank goodness I stayed up that night with her.
And she's coming
through a champ!
