I gotta disagree. The cats need love as much as the chis do. Accidents do
happen and we must take extra precautions to protect our furbabies, but we can't
punish a cat or other animal for doing what comes naturally, self-defense and
protecting their young. Even if the chi was no threat to the cat, it is natural
for the cat to perceive it as a threat. I feel sorry for the cat too....she has
no one to love her the way Katie loves Sophie.

rocko -
so
sorry to hear about Sophie. I hope it works out well. But even
if she has to lose her eye she still will be a great pet. I am always
cautious about the Punk. I never let him near other dogs, cats
etc. My husband says I'm an overprotective mother. Yes I am an
over protective mother. He is better protected than some people's
children.
Make sure you take her to an opthomological specialist. I have
found that since people are willing to pay for advanced vet care that vets
now have more developed specialities just like human
doctors.

Hello all
Ive
been a member of this forum for a while. Ive really enjoyed the
stories and advice and have been saddened with each passing of a
little one. I was going to get around to introducing myself and
my
chi Sophie but now I need help and prayers.=(
Sophie is 7
months old and the joy of my life. <besides my wonderful
3
older human kiddies=) > I have had a lot of doggies Ive loved but
Sophie seems to be surpassing them all. She is so wonderful and
so
attached to me. It's like she worships me. lol
Kinda flattering=)
Anyways, I thought my daughter and I were doing
a good thing when we
took in a mamma cat and her kittys to foster
until the kittys could
be placed. Mamma Cat was to be
downstairs. So...yesterday I left
the door open...cry...and
mamma cat got upstairs, and scratched
Sophie in the eye. Sophie
was rushed to the vet, then to a vet
opthamoligist. To keep this
short...er, for the best prognosis,
Sophie had microsurgery on her
eyeball yesterday to close a puncture
that went all the way to the
center of her eyeball. They wanted to
keep her over night to
keep her quiet. I couldnt even go see her
because they didnt
want her excited and jumping. We did drop off her
beddy and
special food. I may know more today but her prognosis
seems
guarded. If the eyeball stays full of blood it could cause the
retina to detach causing blindness in that eye. If the eye dies,
it
may have to come out. I am sick sick sick over this.
Ive cried off
and on since it happened and am crying now. She
has to be so sad and
confused without me. I dont work and we are
always together. IF
they let her come home, she cannot jump or
play for a week at least!
She is a 7 month old puppy!! I
know they would kind of like to keep
her, but I want her home!
Im not a dummy. I went to school and was
a vet tech for about 2
years in my younger days. She's 4 pounds and
a lap dog. I
really think I could hold her most of the day. When I
couldnt
hold her I could kennel her. She's never kenneled, but I do
have
one, and I think she would be happier kenneled here than at the
vet's. What do I do???? =(
Sorry sooo
long.
Katie
