My kitty Mikey is sick with liver disease. He's the yellow one:
We got this sweet cat to be a companion for my father and he did his job very well. I inherited him when Dad was no longer able to care for him. As you can see from the photo, he's a orange cat, so we didn't really notice that his ears had turned yellow from jaundice. But we DID notice he was a little lethargic and seemed to have lost weight.
The vet confirmed our suspicions, and said an ultrasound and a biopsy would tell the final tale.
That would cost me $700 and as much as I love this little cat, that's just out of the question. So we are medicating him and hydrating him. Did you koow that you could add fluids just under the cat's skin and it will absorb into their body? He looked a little weird after the vet did it, with a little pouch of fluids near his belly.
This cat is a living connection to my father, so I sure hope he pulls through.
I try to be optimistic...wish us well please.

Today's song was written by Peter Yarrow of Peter, Paul and Mary. It was inspired by the 1957 novel Doctor Zhivago. No one was inspired by the song this morning. It was rejected by almost all the listeners.
Today is World Goth Day, a day to celebrate the post-punk, anti-establishment, dark clothes-wearing subculture.
I'm pretty sure I was a Goth for at least for little while, for two reasons.
1) I almost hardly ever wear pastels.
2) I used to...
Hello to all from Nfusion. Another round of challenges has moved beyond us all. Congrats to those of us lucky enough to have survived to this point. Sad to see the others eliminated as they were all very creative and talented. Good Bye to our new friends...
This morning it seemed like just about everyone was in the mood for some Funky Cold Medina...except Kitty. This ridiculous song made it all the way to number 3 in 1989. Jonathan says any song that references advertising dogs from the 80's has got...
