Caring for a Three Legged Dog or Cat

Good juju sent, Holly 🙂

In my opinion, all black/white animals are in! Tuxies, cows, tuxie-cows...

I'm laughing at that picture of Oscar lying in a bed ON TOP OF ANOTHER BED. "His majesty" is right!

(and Karen, that ceramic cat is awesome)  

Thanks Brad! JuJu worked! I agree all black and white are Tuxies! Cows and Miss Cow too!

Okay Sexy Saxton, 

i think we would all love to hear how you are doing this morning? Is all okay?

As with Brad, we are sending all the good JuJu through to you all!

Lots of lovin’ from Petra, Stewie and his played out Kittens. 

  

I'm sorry I am just getting back here! I had nothing left of me last night zip! Thanks for the good JUJU

We caught a double break yesterday! We did not have to take Saxton to the ER but got lucky our Vet had a cancellation (JUJU)
I got Saxton comfortable on Cerenia (anti-nausea). Bought us time. As in he held it down and I got him to stop puking! Saxton had x-rays showing a poop was stuck in transit, they gave him a little gas (sedated) and got it out then gave him fluids! They sent us home with a new med to add to our mix to try to keep things going in transit and not pause. We are not out of the woods but we will get there!🤞🏻

This has been on and off thing since Saxton was a kitty and we manage it really well for years, and it comes backs and gets us every few years in some way. The vet has always said things may change and they have 4 times in Saxton's life this is the 4th.

It's terrible for Saxton, and us really, but we always get thru it and find a new way to manage it. Between Traditional and Holistic vet and our part, of course, we will again! Saxton did not have to be left, and we brought him home, and he says it was a Tuxedo Tuesday and feels better not himself yet! Little dopey on his meds here.

The Vet said it was constipation Tuesday;) It's not a laughing matter but for anyone involved but we are all here to talk about it!

We got the BEST news on Mark and we are FREE NOT TO WORRY?! I will have to take a class on that because I have forgotten how to do that and that seems like light years ago? A day not to worry?

PHEW and YAAAAAY!

On to fun things I agree on all black and white Oscar Happy Tuexdo Day to you & that would include Miss Cow in the Hereford breed & Angel Elsie Pie was a tuxedo too! All black and whites we will celebrate on Tuxedo Day Petra claimed the day! 

More Good JUJU coming your way Petra! Stewie needs good juju and prayers today. Please send them his way!

Lots of love & Gratitude!!

Thanks, Jackie,

No, we cant do pumpkin, there is a fine line between what fibers we can and cannot use. We have been down that road before & that was a gone wrong experiment. We have had a few gone wrong experiments and guided by the Vets still have gone wrong.

We use Miralax, Easy Go by Vitality Science which has slippery elm in it & arabinogalactan. Not all kitties can tolerate all fibers that is what we have learned with Saxton anyway. Saxton goes for acupuncture and chiro too and that has been helpful for this . His pelvis is small and always needs to be aligned?

Things have come along way since your Falcor lucky for us. I am sorry for Falcor!

We do not have megacolon yet anyway. We could be heading down that path. We are trying a new med to help in the transit right now. Will we see?  We have options still so that is important and we caught this before it got too scary so that is the best news! It was an easy fix considering. One poop stuck and the vet was able to reach it! ouch! I can't imagine that was fun deobstipation but you saved many kitties.

Be paranoid on the Q-tips supervised only of course!
