Gotcha Date: January 29th 2006 Birthday: May 1st 1996 Coloration: Orange Tabby Likes: Playing with her toys, running around the house, sunbathing on the back porch and watching the birds and squirrels in the back yard, napping, licking my face and biting my hair Pet-Peeves: Loud noises, being picked up and held, strange cats wandering into the back yard (where they don't belong!!), visiting the vet and the camera (she hates having her picture taken). Favorite Toy: Her boogie mat, red catnip apple, catnip candycane and little furry mice. Favorite Nap Spot: Her blanket bed, the *cave* in the cat tree, any place she can make a nest or snuggle beneath a blanket or pillow. Favorite Food: Cat treats! Skills: The silent meow and looking innocent. She's a world class runner and jumper. Dwells:
indoors Arrival Story: Grief stricken after my sweet Abby went to Rainbow Bridge, I had no plans to get another cat. There's a saying, *the former cat sends the new cat* -- my angel Abby definitely had other plans for me! One month after Abby went to the Bridge, I learned that a friend was dying from cancer and desperately seeking a home for her two cats. It was only a few days after I learned of their plight that I made up my mind to adopt Kaci and her sister Miss Mittens. It was one of the best decisions I've ever made! Bio: Kaci is my sweet little sunshine girl. She's a sweet, affectionate snuggle-bug who is blessed with a sunny and happy disposition. She adores attention and being fussed over. In addition to being very outgoing and friendly, she's super-curious about everything and just a tad bit stubborn at times. She wasn't very vocal until recently but lately seems to enjoy talking about everything. Lives Remaining: 8 of 9 Forums Motto: Mommy thinks i'm adorable!

KACI's HEALTH ISSUES:
Kaci was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism in December 2008 and was successfully treated with Methamazole until September 2012, when she had to stop taking the medication. Her HyperT is now untreated. In November 2010, she was diagnosed with suspected Pyelonephritis (kidney infection), was successfully treated with antibiotics and is now dealing with chronic kidney disease (CRF). In November 2011, a heart murmur was detected and an echocardiogram revealed a heart problem called Mitral Valve Regurgitation. In September 2012, her white blood cell count was found to be dangerously low and she was borderline anemic. The cause of her low WBC was finally determined -- her body was no longer tolerating the Methimazole she was taking to treat her hyperthyroidism. As soon as she stopped the Methimazole, her WBC count returned to normal.
