SMOKEY UPDATE
After 2 months on antibiotics for infections in both eyes Smokey finally had 3 of his canines removed on February 6. They were broken off at the gumline and our vet said he must have been miserable. While he was under anesthesia she finally got to look behind his eye to see what was causing the third eyelid to stay covering 3/4 of his eye. She said that his eye was pushed back so far in his eye socket that he must have suffered a major head trauma at one time. She said he may have been hit by a car? but of course that we will never know. His teeth may have been broken off at the same time also. They said that his eye would only need to be removed for cosmetic purposes at this time because at this point she didn't believe it is bothering him. His tear duct on that side is not making enough tears to wash his eye out and therefore he will need eye drops (not prescription just Artificial tears) at least 2 to 3 times a day to keep his eye moist. Poor guy has had a tough life-thankfully he will never be on the street again. He is a gentle soul who would like to live out the rest of his life in a nice quiet, cozy home. Thank you for all of your generous support in handling of the vet bills-we truly appreciate all who have funded our effort. If anyone is interested in adopting Smokey after his mouth has healed please contact Laurie @ 480-236-9453. Smokey is between 5 and 8 years old. He has tested NEG for FELV/FIV, he has a current FVRCP vaccine and Rabies vaccine.
Kitty of the Week
Meowzer is a gentle Maine Coon male 5 years young
Meowzer is a wonderful big boy who is 5 years old. He was found abandoned and taken into rescue a few months ago. He will start off shy but very quickly will warm up. He is just a big love. He seems to do fine with other cats around but NO dogs-he does not like dogs at all. He is neutered, tested NEG for FELV/FIV, has a current FVRCP vaccine, rabies vaccine, dewormed, has had a recent dental cleaning and is microchipped too. I think Meowzer needs a quiet adult home and if there were no other pets he would be quite happy. His adoption fee is 100.00. If you would like to meet Meowzer please call Laurie @ 480-236-9453. Meowzer is in a foster home at the moment.
Acts of Love and Kindness
Mocha and Marley
Mocha and Marley came to Kitty Kat Rescue after a kind family took them in. They had lived outside their house all their lives along with the mama cat whom they had been unable to trap. After a trip to the vet for spay and neuter it was discovered that Marley had an old fracture on his hind leg. They were put into foster with a wonderful couple who took them to their vet for a second opinion on the fracture. It was confirmed by x-rays that Marley had a previous fracture that had healed completely the wrong way. We were told that unless Marley's hind leg was amputated he would be in great pain for the rest of his life. W e decided to go ahead with the surgery, although very expensive, for the good of the kitten (9 months old). The vet did a wonderful job and with the care his fosters gave him, Marley's leg healed very quickly. If was now time for Mocha and Marley to find a home. We put them in the adoption center on a Saturday and decided we would only adopt them out together. 4 hours later Marley and Mocha got their forever home. Thanks to Companion Animal Clinic in Gold Canyon, Erich and Celest Oakley (Marley and Mocha's fosters) and Petsmart these wonderful creatures were given a second chance. P.S. The mama kitty aka Sasha was finally trapped and with months of care and socialization by the same foster couple she was adopted through Kitty Kat Rescue and Petsmart. She has a great home and the couple that adopted her just love her. It does go to show that with a lot of love and a lot of patience these kitties can turn out to be the perfect pet for you.
