We got the mom cat to come clean him up a bit today and he seemed to feel reasured. She cleaned and pottied him and sat with him for a while. He is sleeping most of the time and I only wake him for food, water, and potty.

I need to be a little more patient as I want him to recover NOW. Waiting has never been my strong point. I can see little things progressing, although hubby says it is wishful thinking.

I will give him a few more days to improve before we do anything drastic.

As long as I think he has a chance to live a somewhat normal life we will keep working with him.

Thanks for all the good thoughts.

I have a 14 year old cat that had a head injury when he was about 4 years old. He's not quite right, but he is the most loving baby I have ever had. He functions fine, but is just a little goofy.

Sending more healing energy vibes your way....not just from me, but from all the kitties as well. And I'm sending some hugs for you, as well.

Frankie is doing better today. He is eating more and with some awarness. He is walking on all fours without dragging his belly. He tends to walk in circles so he may have an equilibrium problem. It is too soon to tell if it will be permenant.

The good thoughts and vibes are working a miracle! I am so hopful he will make a almost complete recovery.

Thank You,

Frankie is eating more today, he is listening to things around him.
I've begun to give electrolights in his food as we are having a hard time injecting fluid under his skin.

He has been having seizures the last couple of days, but they are down to facial twitches and blinking.

I am keeping him in with the rest of the litter to keep him warm. I've run out of the warmers for the snuggle kitty and we are out of funds.

Thanks again for all your prayers!

A snuggle kitty is a stuffed animal with a heartbeat to comfort the kitty. I do not know what they cost but, the number is 1-800-463-4107. Frankie has been very content with his surrogate mom.

Ahh...I looked it up via a google search. Saw the Snuggle Kitty, but nobody seems to sell the warmers. I was going to see if I could find a good deal on them for you.


Frankie is an adorable little boy. We are both sending all sorts of prayers for him. Here is a prayer to Bast for an injured or sick cat that I found online and thought I'd share:

Prayer to Bast for a Sick Cat

"Great Lady of the Cats,
I call upon your sleek form to aid me.
Your child is ill here in my arms.
Come to us and bathe your child
with your tongue and heal his wounds.

Heal his nose and mouth,
so he may breathe and taste.
Heal his teeth and claws,
so he may hunt and eat.
Heal his eyes and ears,
so he may know the world.

Heal all those things that let him digest,
So he can grown healthy.
Heal his heart, lungs and legs,
so that he may travel on.

Heal his skin and fur,
so he may show beauty.
Heal his bones and joints,
so he can play again.
Heal his tongue,
so he can heal his brothers and sisters"

Frankie is doing so well most of the time. The seizures seem to wear him down and he sleeps alot. He is going to need a special home, so we will most likely have him here a long time. With the improvments he has made so far I'm sure he will be nearly normal when the swelling goes all the way down.

Teresa, I really hope the little guy pulls through. I thought about him earlier today and was happy to see the update and that he's doing better. I think we're all rooting for a full recovery for Frankie.
