indoors Arrival Story: I found him on Good Friday, 2005, in the hall of my apartment building screaming his little head off. I brought him home, showed him to Buddy and fed him. The owners found out I had him, so I had to give him back. They were crack addicted people who were only giving Friday milk, basically starving him. On Easter Sunday i went back to those people and told them I wanted the kitten, and they just gave him to me. Friday must have been taken away from his mother too young, because for the longest time he sucked on one particular nipple every time he was going to sleep. Bio: Moewmy and Buddy loves me! Meowmy says I've never given her any problems, I've always been a good boy. I'm a good traveller, don't cry or anything like that. I'm very close to my papa. We sleep together, play together, papa is always washing me, and I wash him back, too. When I want some sugar from Meowmy, I let her know by coming up to her and standing on my hind legs and pawing at her. Meowmy bends down to pick me up and I quickly put my arms around her neck. I love pulling at her hair. But Meowmy puts me down fast sometimes, she says I'm digging my claws into her back! OOPS!...I don't like quick sudden moves, loud noises,the vaccumn cleaner. I like to play with Bijou. There was a time I couldn't stand her! Meowmy saya I was jealous....maybe just a little. She's ok now, but I love my pap Buddy the most. Meowmy says we're two peas in a pod. Lately papa Buddy has been sleeping at the foot of the bed with me. He's also letting me be the first to greet Meowmy in the morning. I never went up to her and laid beside her before! Papa says that ok! I am blessed. I have a great family...Friday!

I dedicate this song to Meowmy:
slideshow: div>
prayer: A Cat’s Prayer
Although I am too proud to beg,
and may appear to be a very independent creature,
I ask for your loving care and attention.
I rely on you for my well being much more than you may realize.
This I promise you, my benefactor, that I will not be a burden on you
nor will I demand more of you than you care to give.
I will be a quiet peaceful island of serenity for you to gaze upon;
a soft soothing body to caress,
and I shall purr with pleasure to rest your weary ears.
Since I am a gourmet who appreciates different taste sensations,
I pray you will give me a variety of nutritious foods and fresh water daily.
You know dear friend, how I love to go.
Allow me, I pray, a warm sheltered place
where I can rest peacefully and feel secure.
If I am wounded in battle or suffering from disease,
please tend me gently, and see that I am treated
by loving and competent hands.
Please protect me from the inhuman humans
who would hurt and torture me for their own amusement.
I am accustomed to your gentle touch and am not always suspicious
nor swift enough to avoid such malicious acts.
In my later years when my senses fail me
and my infirmities become too great to bear,
allow me the comfort and dignity that I desire for my closing days
and help me gently in my pain or passing.
Hear this prayer, my dear friend, my fate depends on you.

we just found out that my diary was pick of the day on Auguast 17!! This just makes me soo happy!!
I am glad it was because what my Meowmy and I wrote hopefully has brought some enlightment to such a sad situation.
Thank you to everyone who read and wrote back to us concerning my medical problem.
We are pleased to report that I am doing great!! On special food for the rest of my life...and no more hard food either, I am sad about this as my favorite was Whiskas. Oh well, I now get the best and most expensive in the whole house...it's keeping me alive! And my Meowmy is soo happy I urinate alot and big puddles...this is very important to all you gentlemen kitties here at Casterland!!!
Boy, have I sure got somefin to let all my kitties furiends and everybody else out there know...and this is all the complete truth.
Meowmy noticed I was using the box quite a few times in the morning last Wednesday, August 3. So she made me a doctors appt. for the afternoon. Now I was being my self, nothing out of the ordinary. Meowmy drove twenty miles to the doctors to get me an Acevet...to drug me up, as I hate the vets place with orange passion.
So we get there for 3 p.m., and then this vet says she can't feel my bladder and needs to do an ultra sound to find it. Meowmy goes and waites outside, and a couple of minutes later the vet comes back out with a syringe half full of blood. She says this is not a good sign and goes to test for cyctology.
She comes back and says I need more tests, but they need money for all this as Meowmy told them that she only has $110.00 on her for the day. The vet says that Meowmy has to come up with more or they were going to give me a needle. Now Meowmy was crying and telling me they wanted to kill me and she wasn't going to let them to it...Oh Boy!!! you should have seen Meowmy go nuts on them, lots of shouting and crying. Hey, I was feeling no pain, so I couldn't just take off from the table and boot my rear end out of that joint.
To make a long story short, Meowmy had to make a phone call and sell her car on the spot back to her old boss. He ripped Meowmy off royally, lost over $2100.00 on that deal. but what else could she do on the spot...her back was up against the wall and she wasn't gooing to let them kill me for no good reason.
So I had to spend the night. The bad vet ran a cathator into me to flush me out, pumped me up with lots of luquid and more drugs. Then left me all alone for the night. She phone my Meowm and Meowmy told them to keep me free from pain, I had none by the way, and she also wanted me to be kept sedated. None of this happend.
The next morning the bad vet phoned Meowmy to let her know I was being my fractious self, hee hee!! That I had destroyed my kennel, moving everything around and then that I had pulled my cathator out!! My Meowmy had a flip out, wanting to know if I was injured or hurt. The vet didn't know. Meowm wanted to know how this could have happend, as I was wearing a collar and also had a intervenious iv in my right front leg. Anyway, they told Meowmy to come pick me up, as I was being myself (fractious) and they could'nt handle me. And also Meowmy reached her $500.00 limit.
Meowmy came and got me in the early afternoon, but when she got there they told her she would have to waite as she didn't phone ahead to let them know she was on her way to get me...Meowmy said that was fine, as she wasn't in a hurry and just wanted to see me, which she did. I was hooked up to the iv still, had the collar around me head and my rear end dumped into the litter box. I would'nt eat or drink anything until I got home.
They wanted me to have surgery This past Tuesday, August 9, but we have no money for that and it was also the anniversary of her dog, Bobbie's death..so no way was I having surgery then. Meowmy has been trying to get financing thru IFiance pet service of some kind. On Thursday Meowmy met with another vet In Neepawa, a half hour away from us who reviewed my file and spent about 45 minutes going over everything with my Meowm...The bad vet appears to have given me way too much meds, lots of things to boost the price which was unnessary. He has agreed to become my new doctor. He asked what kind of surgery this stupid vet wanted me to have and when he heard about them wanting to cut open my bladder and scrapping it, he was outraged and said absolutely not!! I can have a surgery that will fix me once and for all...make my uretha like a girls, nice and widel...no more problems..so now Meowmy feels better and is still watching me and if I really need surgery this is the way to go and he will work with us, financially too.
Now my symtoms of crystalls were only needing to pee alot and I was doing small amounts. Meowmy watches me like a hawk and caught on to a potentially big problem right away.
This is Mary, Friday's Mommy...I just about lost Friday to a vet who is looking at dollar signs and not the care of a patient or the owners feelings..Friday was not ready to go to Rainbow Bridge and i fought to keep him alive. I am so thankful I went to another vet for more options. The first vets name is Cam Nichole from the Gladstone Vet Clinic. I worked there once and can say for sure that things have changed at the clinic and not for the good. The new vet is Doctor Taylor from Neepawa Manitoba. I felt at ease with him. And when I left the office it felt like a huge rock was lifted off from my chest and shoulders.
One more thing, since Friday came home, he developed an upper respitory tract infection which is going away. It was explained to me he more than likelly had one as a kitten, before I rescued him and it comes out during stress times such as these.
Thank you for reading Friday's diary...go hug your babies and take good care of them...don't let a stupid vet try to take control of you or your pets lives..
I told Meowmy this morning that we should sue them...what do you all think about that???
I am just cruising around Catsterland and went to my page and it looks all weird..like what happend to my nice background? Where did it go? Ok, so like do we have a background bandit on the loose? If so, pawese give me back my nice background, as Meowmy can't always be on and it is difficult now to make a new one, we can't afford the PLUS program right now.. so if anyone knows the where abouts of all the stuff missing on my page please return it...Thanks
