Happy and Healthy

I am pleased to report I have no itchies! My fur is long and shiny, and I have filled out nicely. *mom - she's getting a wee bit plumpish, actually*

The itchies

I have the itchies, and they are no fun. What's even less fun is having to go to the V-E-T because of it. When I was living on the streets I had these nasty scabs on my head, and I was always itching them. After some antibiotics and being flea treated they went away, but while the parents were out of town I got fleas again. Yesterday the V-E-T did say it could be a food allergy instead of a flea allergy. I got a hydrocortisone shot and antibiotics. If the antibiotics don't work we'll look at food allergies.

Life is good

I am a almost 7 months old (I think), gorgeous (I know) tortie kitty who has found a home. My goal in life has been to find a home, and I haven't been picky. If you left your car door open I jumped in. If you wanted a breeze through the house and left a door open I was in. I really like this one house. They had a grill and made really nice smells, but none of them like kitties. They called me Gangrene and wouldn't pet me. :*( It wasn't my fault I was scruffy with scabs on my head.

One day they had a big party with lots of nice food smells. Being a skinny little hungry kitty I was interested. Being a love and attention starved kitty I was really excited when all these people started arriving. People didn't really want to touch me though because they thought I looked so icky. This one lady not only petted me but she sent her husband to the car to bring me kitty food. I was SO hungry, but I still wanted her to pet me more than I wanted to eat. I was really, really, really hoping the lady would take me home with her, but once I started eating she left, and when the party was over I was still there and she was gone.

I held out hope she would come back, but after a week and a half I had all but given up and then the lady came back! She popped my in a carrier and after some interesting times at the vet (see my bio) I went home with her and her husband and I've been here ever since. JOY!!!
