To keep you guys updated on his progress is best done visually, so I'll just start this one thread & update it as I go.
Chairman Squishy Meow came home with me Tuesday January 1, 2008. He was to be euthanized the next day for ringworm.
January 7, 2008 the vet determined he didn't have ringworm, but allergies he suspected. So we began treatment to get rid of the sores.
Meowmy, I'm home!
Old cats don't play! (Having a bit of a "Dorky Fish" moment in the first pic
)
Fungus bath back when I thought he had ringworm
Sleeping on the dog
Nasty side
Once again, Old cats don't play
Today, Sunday January 27, 2008
Instead of 3 large spots/many small spots on this side & 2 large spots/many small spots on his other side.....he has 2 medium sized spots on this side, the rest have hair re-growth!!
Unfortunately, he's gained about 8 tons since coming home.
He has had a tendency to bite....but it only ever seems to occur if I'm messing with those spots, they must really hurt him. Makes me wonder how long he had them at the shelter & they weren't visible (they start off tiny little spots...I've stopped several from getting big already) .... he had been a nipper for awhile at the shelter. And no, his eyes never open fully
Life starts at 15, they say!
If anyone is interested in possibly adopting him or knows someone who might, please PM me. I would like to be able to find him a home....otherwise he will just have to live outside as a farm kitty. Not ideal, but better than dead. (He will, however, continually receive medical care no matter where he lives so long as he's with me). He is great with the dogs (see the pic above). I was having issues with him fighting with Ophelia....until I discovered Cow would start a fight with Squishy, then run & hide behind Ophelia so the two fought.
