Update on Patches!

We've been having a rough couple of weeks and expensive couple of weeks. Our new house is leaking water everywhere. Nemo's insulin had some sort of instability so that had to be changed. Now we have to go through the whole expensive process of getting him regulated. This new insulin cost close to $100 for a bottle. We took advice of everyone and took Patches to the vet about peeing. They did tests but nothing. Kinda wish it was just a uti and not behavioral. The vet thought the litter probably was Ok since she is pooping in there. They also recommended the feliway and they carried it there so we got that today. Today's bill for Patches was over $100 bucks. Mom had to go to the ER for muscle spasms last month too. It has just been a rough one and a depressing time. We will get back to our updates soon. Thanks for listening to our rant for the day.

Lots of purrs and Light and (((hugs))) to you all. It never rains but it pours, is the old expression, we think. Meaning life always seem to throw so much cr*p at us at once.

Here's hoping for better days ahead for you all!

Sometimes you try and lift your head and someone knocks you down again. Take care and hopefully Patches will be better - we've had some good results with Feliway.

We're so sorry things have not been going well in so many ways! A couple of suggestions, you can get feliway on line much cheaper than at the vet's. If you decide to purchase more, you may want to check out sites like entirelypets.com. That's where our mom buys feliway. Also, there's a cat litter called Cat Attract that has been helpful for kitties peeing outside the box. It might be worth trying.

We sure hope things get better. We're purring for all of you.

We are sorry things have been rough lately. We hope the Feliway works and things start to pick up for you.
