My first birthday at Rainbow Bridge

Today we would have celebrated my birthday in my home. Mom adopted me when I was probably around 4 years old. She made my birthday the day she brought me home - 5/25/01. Things are good here at Rainbow Bridge and I hope to celebrate today with my sister Lucy and my dogs, Murphy and Madison. I can see that mom is sad today. It hasn't been quite 3 months since I left her. I hope she does something fun today because she still took the day off from work to be with the kitties that are still at home.

I am free now

Last night was really bad. I felt really bad. Mom was crying a lot. She kept telling me I was going to the dr today and I tried to be patient. I got sick many times during the night. She tried to lay with me but I've been shunning her lately. I just didn't want anyone bothering me.

So I did go to the vet today and they gave me a shot that made me feel really good and I purred. I haven't done that for several days. Then mom was kissing me and saying she was sorry and that I was a good kitty. Then my vet kissed me too. She was crying too. Then she gave me another shot and I was free. I could see them both crying and hugging each other but I didn't hurt any more.

I can see mom now and she is still crying but I hope she can forgive herself. It was the best thing she could do for me and I will be waiting for her when she comes to get me.

I have liver failure now too

Mom is so worried about me. I have been to the dr twice this week. I stopped eating last weekend and now I will only eat by being forced. I can't help that I don't feel good. My skin looks yellow because I have jaundice. That was diagnosed on Monday. I had to go back on Thursday because I was throwing up. I couldn't stand the meds. So now I am on tummy meds and got a shot to help and I am feeling much better now but I have a long way to go.

I have CRF now

I have finally started using fluids for Chronic Renal Failure. I wasn't very happy about it at first but I am trying to be good for mom. We did treatment 4 this morning and she said I was such a good kitty girl. We are learning a lot about the disease. She purchased some special products from Catfairies.com that we are going to try too, I am hoping to be around for many more years with all this help.

10 Years Ago Today

It was 10 years ago today that my mom brought me home from the shelter. That was the best day of my life, well until I met the dogs and cats that lived in the house. I did adjust okay, even though I sometimes let her know I'm unhappy by peeing somewhere I shouldn't. Mom thinks that is why I was left in an apartment basement when the people moved out.

Today I got special We Pity the Kitty salmon treats and I am extremely happy. Guess I'll take a nap now.

Love, Pandora

I so mad

My brofur Rufus be Cat of the Day recently, then he be Diary pick too. Nothing like that ever happens to me. I so mad. At least my mom loves me and takes good care of me (well, all of us) but she treats me real special cuz I have been sick lately too. I am on a special diet now but she still worries about me and that makes me feel good. I am sorry I am jealous of Rufus but he seems to get all the attention. A girl deserves a little attention too - right?

My Gotcha Day

Today is my purrday with my family. It isn't my real birthday but my mom made it my day because I came to live with her 9 years ago today. Although I wasn't completely happy with the situation because mom had dogs then, I still loved my nice soft bed and all the hugs and kisses I got. The dogs have been gone for 6 years now and it was much better for me when they passed on, even though mom was sad. I love my house and I love my mommy very much. She says she is going to Petsmart today and will buy me something special today. I hope it is yummy treats all for me.

My trip to the white coat man

Boy what a rude day I had. My mom came home early today and gave us dinner early but then put me in the bathroom and I knew I was in trouble. Then out came the crate and off I went to the doctor. Yearly checkup she said. Don't worry, she said. Well he poked and prodded me and gave me shots. Then he gave me a sedative in my back and removed a cyst. It hurt but I didn't have to have stitches. Mom told me I could pee on the carpet to get back at her if I wanted to but so far I haven't done anything bad. I will have to weigh my options and decide which carpet to pick on. Also when she isn't expecting it too. I WILL get even. At least I don't have to go back. I heard her making another appointment for Lucy to go back for a recheck blood work. He He He

I've had a bad weekend

Well I never thought this would be my weekend. First Saturday night my staff person tricked me and grabbed me and used that stupid comb on me. I hate being combed. I yelled and hissed but she held tight and got a few lumps of hair off me. I must admit it feels pretty good now (but don't let her know I said that).

Then Sunday morning my stupid brother Rufus started chasing me and trying to grab and kill me. He grabs me and hangs on and kicks me with his back feet - when staff isn't around to protect me. Lucky for me she was here and she rescued me from him. Then she had the nerve to pick him up and kiss him and take him down stairs. I know she's been worried about him but he's going to think she kissed him because he had been picking on me.

Oh well, guess maybe I can con some special treats out of her this morning because she feels guilty I got picked on .... gotta go ......
