Who Are You? - UPDATE ON KITTENS

Well, Sebastian and Reilly are back home with humpacks! That means they got some fluids because they were a tad dehydrated. Not real sure what is going on with them, but we have 3 medications (amoxicillin, albon and metoclopramide syrup) to give at home and they got two other meds (strongid and reglan for vomiting) in the office. Last night the man cleaned up some yak that had a (live!!!) roundworm in it. They were dewormed (drontal) on Tuesday of last week, but it must not have gotten everything. Reilly had really bad tape worms! We are hoping and purraying the roundworms are causing them to feel yucky! If they are still not doing right by Wednesday, they will go back in for further testing. Please purr and purray that Sebas and Rei start eating some A/D tonight! Oh, and the traps are set for their momma and other siblings.

P.S. The Kool-Kitty-Krew is participating in Paw It Forward and needs some takers! If you would like to play, please stop by and sign up with them! We are unable to play do to the rising cost of foster kittens! :) Sure sounds like lots of fun though!!!

♫ Well who are you? (Who are you? Who? Who? Who? Who?)♫

This is Scruffy, he lives in another subdivision about a mile and a half away. He comes to visit us quite often, sometimes twice a day. He travels by back road or by creek and sometimes with his partner in crime, a golden retriever named Crosby. Our man servant, who adores him, takes him back home to his fence after he and Dixie Dog play, but he always finds his way back to our house. He is a small pooch and his fence has large gaps, not a good combo. He's a good little woofie and kinda cute too!



Thanks to Loki for this great award! We have proudly displayed it in our trophy case (awards page.) We would like to pass this award on to all of our friends!

Be sure to stop by Maggie May's blog and watch her new short video. She is having lots of fun with her cat nip mouse from Pugsley, Raja and Mini!

P.S Continue to purr for Sebastian and Reilly. They will (hopefully) be going to the vet today because they are not eating. We will keep you guys posted!

You must be his special friends because that is a long way to travel on his own. We hope he stays safe.

I hope Scruffy stays safe on his adventures - we are purring for the kittens too!

Cory said...

Scruffy must love you all to travel so far. It would be great to set him up with a "dog" cam on his collar to see where else he goes. We will continue to purr for Sebastian and Reilly.

Bruce said...

You're a cutie Scruffy! I'd play with you too!

Scruffy sure looks like lotsa fun to play with. Not for us though, we have a canine cousin, Grizzley and he just chases us when he comes over! We don't like that all that much.

Angel Ginger Jasper said...

He must lve it at your place to keep comming back. I am glad he doesn't come by the busy raods.

Purring for a happy result at the vets.. Please get well soon..

Hugs GJ xx

It's nice to get visitors and Scruffy looks like a nice woofie! But we worry about him travelling so far to see all of you! We hope he stays safe! We wonder what his humans must think??

Mishkat said...

We think Scruffy is adorable too (but that's a long way to come!) And we are purring for Sebastian and Reilly - we really hope they are OK.

Gemini and Ichiro said...

CCL Wendy said...

Scruffy is very cute! We have a dog who comes to see us, too, when he gets loose -- cause sometimes his beans let him out and they don't have a fence at all!

It's nice to get visits, but we always want to make sure they get home safely, again, like your dad does.

Thanks for passing on the award.

The Kitty Krew said...

Scruffy is a cute woofie, we hope he stays safe when he comes to visit and goes home.

Congrats on the award, Loki gave us that one too!

More purrs for Sebastian and Reilly, please do let us know how it goes at the v-e-t.

Purrs and hugs,
The Kitty Krew

Scruffy is quite the little traveler!

I am purring for Sebastian and Reilly!

The Monkeys said...

What a cutie he is! Our Mommy had a doggie that looked a lot like that when she was young and she said he loved to visit the neighbors too and always took off if she didn't watch him.

Angel Junior, Orion and Sammy said...

Scruffy is a purrty cute woofie!

We are purring for Sebastian and Reilly.

Brian's Home Blog said...

I bet that woofie speaks feline and is looking for someone to talk to.

Thoughts said...

What a cute pooch who comes to visit! He must like you an awful lot!

We will keep paws crossed for Sebastian and reilly... :)

Purrs,

Angel, Kirby and Max said...

It is sad that a cute dog does not have a secure safe yard. You human man is very nice to play with him and see him home safely. Congratulations on the award. WE are still purring for Sebastian and Reilly.

Shelly said...

Scruffy sure is a cutie! Glad he has you all to visit where he can be safe. About 10 years ago there was a dog that would visit the school I worked at whenever he got loose...we practically had his owners on speed dial!

Hope Sebastian and Reilly feel much better soon! Ginger, Punkin and Salem all had to go to the VET today...that was a sight! No more plastic dishes for Salem and Punkin...chin acne from it. Ginger's on antibiotics for a infection on her tail...don't tell her that though...I just hid it in a piece of cheese!

loki said...

Wishing that Sebastian and Reilly feel better very soon. I shared the house with two doggies. The doggy is very cute!

We hope Sebastian and Reilly start eating soon - poor guys! Worms are horrible. And we must say that we think A/D is really yucky too, though we know it's good for cats who aren't eating much.

We hope that nothing happens to Scruffy when he gets out and runs around... Next door to us there is a little tiny dog who gets though the fence sometimes and comes into our yard! Then he stands there barking and barking at us. Scruffy is cute!

We keep purring for Sebastian and Reilly!

Purring and praying over here!

Hansel said...

sometimes deworming makes them puke them up. However, the albon is for coccidia worms, and metoclopramide (is reglan) is for the stomach. Strongid is another dewormer, and amoxi, well, is antibiotic. Sounds like they had a BAD case of worms.

Hansel said...

--- coccidia is another parasite (sometimes, we forget what some people know, because if we didn't work at the clinic, we'd have NO idea what this stuff was!)

When we first got hans, he had bad bad worms. But, after deworming they found he also had an upper resp that made him feel real poopy.

Tiger Lily said...

Oh wow! We hope your kittens do get to feeling better soon. It is very nice of you to take care of them like this!

Scruffy is such a cute woofie. Sushi would love to play with him!

prrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrs and tail wags,

Amy & the house of cats said...

Oh, I have gotten so behind and hadn't known that they were not well - I am hoping as I catch up to read some good news! But I will send good prayers and the kitties will send purrs their way. Virgil had a tape worm when he was little but we were lucky and caught it fairly early - it didn't cause any problems. I am keeping my fingers crossed that there is good news as I catch up with the next post!
