She'd be flattered if that were in a cat's nature
but I'm sure she sends her encouragement and good wishes.

Sasha went to see Dr B. today. She said WOW. JUST WOW. His neurological dmage has receded with the palpebral nerve in his right eye and he does blink now. Peripheral vision is great on left, weaker but improved on right. His head wounds are scabbing w/no hint of abcess, his weight is steady, no fever. Tongue function is starting to return to more in center of mouth, not hanging out to the side - AND - to reward him for being such a sport, we gave him a tiny piece of bacon and he picked it up himself, chewed and swallowed on his own. Praise the Feline Lord of Lords! This morning while I was in the bathroom he came in went to the bathroom too, not that anybody really needs to know this but, hey, it worked and that's great considering he still is showing signs of psychological trauma in that area. So Sasha nailed the exam, YEAH BABY!


We're holding off on going to any neurological specialist or doing CT scans to let nature take it's course for the next couple of weeks. He is also starting to show signs of wanting to return to the outdoors (more time by the window and scratching once at the cat door) but that ain't gonna happen. This big coyote clubber continues to make remarkable progress and I have derived so much strength from this site, you just have no idea. Well, then again, maybe you do.

Kellye this is great news, and after all the hard work you and Sasha have put into it, only what you deserve.
Please, please Sasha never go out again.

Yay Sahsa! Good boy!


Elizabeth, I also wanted to add that much of Sasha's recovery is because of you. You have been so wonderful with him - patient, observant, positive and so very, very loving. It is such a special bond you share. You have been so instrumental in his recovery. Kudos to you.

Everyone always says the best things!
We're doin' good and it's all about MY MIRACLE GUY. Hey, I'm armed with super-food, a syringe that looks like it's on steroids, my shotgun and kitten glop, so bring it ON. Coyotes of the world, watch out - we're not dying we're gettin' better! That's the best revenge and it's from Sasha's MAMA

So far out in left field I got lost
Sasha You Go Boy! Even potty news is great news to us
We know that he is getting better when you tell us about his little accomplishments. Now Sasha boy you are a really brave boy but you can't go outside anymore, without supervision, so forget it.

Hey Sasha I hope that ole coyote has an infected wound where you got your shot in too


More healing vibes headed your way from me, the boys and the girl.
