The life of 2 Clinic Cats

Our last diary entry....

Hey, it's us, your favourite clinic cats. We are sorry to break the news that this will be our last post. You see, it's not because we don't love it here on catster, but it is because today is the last day we will be seeing the food provider. And since she is the one that helps us write our diaries we won't be able to update you on our lives any more.

It has been a long time coming, we hear tid bits from all staff once in a while saying that they want to leave. It is finally the food providers time, unfortunately she told us she doesn't have a back up plan right now. Please keep her in your purrayers that hopefully she will find something soon!

Note: this is just us (Simon and tony) , Blade and Moppie are here to stay.

Calie and Tao update!!

We've just been talking to Tao via Facebook. He asked us to update everyone on how Calie and him are doing.

Tao is not feeling well today, he hasn't eaten all day. He has also vomited 8 times today. As most of you know if us cats don't eat that usually means we aren't doing well and need to see the vet! Tao also thinks he has a fever.

Some of you know vets in Tao's area are not very common. Tao's Mom contacted their vet trying to make an appointment but there was no answer. We hope they will be able to contact them tomorrow and get Tao some veterinary treatment!

Please send some big strong purrs for Tao!

Calie fell off the balcony again this evening. They believe she is okay but are not able to get her in the dark. By what Tao's Mom said it sounds like she may be stuck and/or unreachable?!

Please purr that she will be able to be rescued tomorrow morning!

We hope they will both be okay. Please keep those purr Motors going for them.

Thanks,
Simon and Tony

Entry from the clinic cats!

Hey, thought we'd update you guys on clinic news. Things have been hectic around here for the staff, for us clinic cats its just the usual, Mol. We help here and there with the patients. Mainly keeping those kitties in the cages awake, hehe, we like to come say hi. Although the staff would say we're being mean.

About a month or two ago one of the staff was injured/bitten by a dog and was MIA for a month. They short staffed at that time so they got pretty tired after a while of continuous shifts. In the dogs defense he was hurting and they were trying to take an xray. I believe the owners did say he he was a fear-bitter.

Lately we've seen many raccoon attack patients. We are saying this partially as a warning to you as well as your parents. Stay away from the outdoors!!! Most were outdoor cats, one was one that just went out on the porch. There was even one or two small dogs that just went out in their back yard!! Sounds pretty scary! We love all of you and want you to stay nice and safe.

Lately we've also seen lots of patients with blood in their feces or that they are vomiting blood, not sure why so many right now. If you ever notice that in your pets its best to contact your vet as soon as possible.

We had a very critical case in last night. Simon and I took it upon ourselves to keep a close eye on him. It was a big dog. When he came in his heart was so slow the staff needed to revive him, had him on ECG for a few hours. Over night he started getting a bit more conscious. All in all he was doing quite a bit better by morning but had to go to their regular vet for continued care.

On a note of how Simon and I are doing. We have been getting a bit sick off and on. But staff did bloodwork and xrays and found nothing. We also have blood in our poop, they can't figure out why. But whatever it is it is affecting both of us. Again its an off and on thing, you really don't need to worry about us, we feel fine 97% of the time. We have loving and caring staff that want us to stay healthy! Although I myself have to admit that I hate medicine! It doesn't help me feel better - I get very angry with the staff. Mol.

We hope everyone is doing well. We apologize for not being around. Just holler and we'll be back in a hop skip and a jump.
