Re: [Felvtalk] Hemy has a home

[Sharyl]

Bonnie, I was saddened to read that your Aunt has passed.  At least she was at 
peace knowing her cats were safe with you.  You have done a great job with 
Hemy.  She has definitely found her new forever home.

Subject: [Felvtalk] Hemy has a home


Just an update on that little “feral” cat I took from my dear aunt’s house….
After going to Forgotten Felines for spay (already spayed), partial tail 
amputation and general health check, “Hemy” lived in a pen on my deck for 
nearly a month. I would get my upper body in the pen and we would have a ‘love 
fest’ of petting, purring, head-butting and cuddling.  Clearly: not a feral 
cat.  So I left the pen door open yesterday.  She sniffed all around the yard, 
circled several times, returned to the pen to eat and sleep in her favorite 
bed.  I called FF about finding her a home, but I think this is her home, and 
I’m her person.  I love this little cat.  I suspect she has some health issues, 
but I’m delighted to give her a home and in return have her friendship.
By the way, my dear aunt passed away on Aug. 24.  I visited her the evening 
before and she said then the same thing she said every time I saw her:  “I’m so 
GLAD you have the cats.”  Then she’d ask about them and I’d tell her how each 
one was doing and how wonderful they are.  It was obviously important to her 
that her animals were being cared for, and I think the fact that it was me (‘in 
the family’ and a known cat lover) helped.   I’m happy that my taking her cats 
made her happy and gave her a little peace in her time of transition.

It has always been my understanding that you should never give asprin to cats:
 

Aspirin Side Effects
Aspirin is not a medication that is typically administered to cats. If 
administered, it may cause a few side effects such as: 

Stomach acidity, which can lead to stomach ulcers
Upset stomach
Vomiting
Diarrhea
Blood coagulation delays
Lack of appetite

You can give baby aspirin like every other day or 72 hours or something like 
that for just a few days though.

“I am not interested to know whether vivisection produces results that are 
profitable to the human race or doesn’t….the pain which it inflicts upon 
unconsenting animals is the basis of my enmity toward it, and it is to me 
sufficient justification of the enmity without looking further.” – Mark Twain

So sorry for the loss of Black Tom.  Each cat is special and their life
counts.  It is so difficult to tell when to intervene sometimes.  I hope his
helper comes to see it is not her fault, and to appreciate the times they
spent together.

Peace.
