"Hewwo" - Mulberry 🐈 Good news for Mulberry: he doesn't have to go back outside, because Eliannie Animal Rescue is going to take him if we can't find him a home! 💗💗💗 Thank you so much, @EliannieAnimalRescue! We took care of his neutering, vaccinations, rabies shot, worming, and flea treatment; and we've given him plenty of love and food (because he's totally wasting away... ;) ); now between Eliannie Animal Rescue and us, we will find him a loving home! 😻 #blackcat #tuxedocat #tuxedo #chonk #heccinchonk #heytherebigboy #ohlawdhecomin #ohlawd #catrescue #rescuecat #fostercat #catfoster #catrescuelady #catrescuelife #catstagram #catsofinstagram #catsofig #catoftheday #ForeacreFurFamily #ElliannieAnimalRescue (at Lancaster, Pennsylvania) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cn7WYXWOykE/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Cat rescue is scary. Even when there are expected scares, or problems that you have dealt with before and know how to handle, when the situations occur, I still have a few seconds of panic before the logical part of my brain takes over and I jump into action. Last night we had one such scare - Willow, Alyssa's little gas station kitten (her original name was Petrol, lol), has been sick with a persistent cold for several weeks now, and because she wasn't responding to #Clavamox, our veterinarian switched her to #Orbax. He had hesitations because of her age and side effects, and now we're going to take her back for a different medication, because last night those side effects appeared: Willow had a seizure. Orbax can cause seizures in cats as well as dogs. Most importantly: WILLOW IS OKAY. 💗 It was a grand mal, but a mild one, and she came out of it after 45 seconds, and that is the only seizure she has had thus far (Alyssa and I are taking turns monitoring her). Emotional Brain: OMGOMGOMGOMG OH MY FUCKING GOD THIS IS A SEIZURE SHE IS HAVING A SEIZURE THIS IS A CAT HAVING A SEIZURE OH NO NONONONONO WHAT THE HELL?! Logical Brain: this is a grand mal seizure. Leave her as she is, on her side, and move away any objects that could hurt her if she collides with them. Stay with her and talk soothingly, and as she wakes up comfort her. Once fully awake, check vitals. Call veterinarian first thing Monday morning. The only bright side is since starting Orbax (four days ago), Willow's cold symptoms have significantly improved, and she is definitely on the road to wellness. #kitten #sickkitten #kittenseizure #catseizure #seizure #grandmalseizure #Orbax #Orbaxseizure #Orbifloxacin #Orbifloxacinseizure #catrescue #rescuecat #kittenstagram #kittensofinstagram #kittensofig #catstagram #catsofinstagram #catsofig #catrescuelife https://www.instagram.com/p/CncZ5n9u_y1/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Arden is feeling under the weather. To the vet we go in the morning. (Suspecting URI, maybe Coccidia, but my money is on the former.) But for tonight, he's comfortably hydrated because of our local community coming together to help us with our cat rescue wishlist, which included subcutaneous infusion butterfly needles. It really does take a village. You are loved, Baby Arden. You've got this, and we've got you! 💗 #catrescue #kittenrescue #catrescuelife #catrescuelady (at Lancaster, Pennsylvania) https://www.instagram.com/p/CdcymEKOPBV/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

So this happened last night. 🚒 Fortunately, the previously-injured stray cat (who we've since appropriately named Stove) who was the cause of its demise wasn't harmed, nothing caught fire, and we have small coming appliances to hold us over while I scramble to figure out getting a replacement. 🐈 Injured cat: 1 Jenn's household appliances: 0 #crazycatlady #rescuecatlife #catrescuelife (at Lancaster, Pennsylvania) https://www.instagram.com/p/CcngU4iMnoU/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

our cats | undecided if we're keeping or unable to find homes because of any combination of age/appearance/health/behavior | fosters who will go to rescues or to private adopters The far left number doesn't fluctuate much (though Arden is our first bottle baby so we're positively smitten with him and he is glued to us 24/7, and Valkyrie is really special to Dan and I because Reasons 💗), but obviously the middle and right ones can wildly change. At one point we had 34! 🙀 Thankfully most of those were TNRs who only needed looking after for a few days. #catrescue #kittenrescue #catfoster #kittenfoster #thisiscatrescue #adayinthelifeofacatrescuer #ditlofacatrescuer #catrescuelife #fostercatmom #fostercatlady #rescuecat #rescuekitten #fostercat #fosterkitten #AdoptDontShop #SpayandNeuter #TNR #TrapNeuterReturn #TrapNeuterKeep #catstagram #catsofinstagram (at Lancaster, Pennsylvania) https://www.instagram.com/kissmykitty/p/CYEhfI8LJWG/?utm_medium=tumblr
