Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By dhmjr40: Call from vet. They dipped/bathed him for the scabies. Does have the usual round/hook worms you could expect with this type of stray. But that's about it. Seizures probably coming from not getting regular meals and insulin being off. So regular meals should take care of that. Not quite old enough for shots so we're going back in a couple of weeks for that. All in all, thought it was best report we could get at this time  Probably taking off a little early this afternoon to pick him up.Great, enjoy your new best friend. |

There's a dog pond behind this but it still needs a pump/fountain which should be installed next few months. I wanted to make some cool signs, "Waggin' Tail Saloon", lol, or something along those lines but suck at doing that myself. Either gotta find some stencils or start dating someone a lot more talented

The funny thing about my pyr, who was also a stray, is if she is in the house. She is constantly in protective mode, plane flies over, mail man or ups delivery she will bark her head off. Outside, on her lease, she's a 90# weiny. I was walking her one night, when a tree frog jumped on her snout, the freak out she had was epic. |

Our first cat was one my wife picked up on the side of the road. She was coming home from work one evening, and there was a little kitten in the road near our house. She stopped and got out and picked him up and put him on the side of the road to get him out of harm’s way. He followed her to her car. She put him back, and he followed her again. She said, “Well, I guess you’re coming with me, huh?”
She brought him home, and we kept him in the garage, as he was covered in fleas. He had a wound on the back of his neck, I guess from where a larger animal had bitten him. We gave him some milk and water, and he dove into it so hard. He was so hungry and thirsty. I got him some food and a litter box, and we took him to the vet the next day. They took care of the fleas and sewed up his wound. He was the best cat anyone could ever ask for, and he lived a long, happy life. I still miss him very much. He was our perfect little kitty. |
