The email address is listed on my signature, just remove the LITTER BOX... If you don't trust Paypal, email me privately and I'll email you my address so you can send me a regular check. Also, if Dan gives us the phone number of his vet, we could simply call in with our donations. Thanks, Victor. I found the info in a post, called the vet directly, and made a contribution. Tomorrow I'll call the specialist as well. Sandy |

purring, Miss Violette, with a praying soft
Dan M wrote in message ... A few days ago I noticed Harri doing some coughing. She stopped after a minute or so and it didn't repeat. Yesterday she had another coughing fit, and that concerned me. She has also been a little bit listless and lethargic. When I got back from my doctor appointment this afternoon I saw that Harri has breathing very heavily, and she hadn't been doing anything strenuous. By this time it was getting near 4 PM, and her usual vet is over an hour's drive away at this time of day. I did some quick research and located a vet in nearby Redlands, and remembered that I have heard good things about that vet. I had the feeling that Harri needed to see the vet immediately, and that waiting until tomorrow might not be a good idea. I loaded Harri into the carrier and we made the fastest trip to Redlands we've ever done. The vet looked her over and found that she has a very high temperature. When he listened to her breathing he found that she at least has a very advanced case of pneumonia, and might have a collapsed lung. He did mention that if I had waited til tomorrow, I probably would have had a dead kitty. The vet is reasonably sure that Harri will survive. She's spending the night at the vet, getting IV fluids, antibiotics, and steroids. She's also getting a lot of blood work done, and is getting some x-rays taken. I'll find out about 10:00 AM tomorrow what the lab work shows. The vet's assistant went over the vet's treatment plan before I left. Turns out that Harri's treatment ought to cost almost exactly the amount of my short-term disability checks for the last two weeks Anyhow, purrs for Harri's recovery would be greatly appreciated. |

I've been in Dan's position and needed help, so I know how great it is to have the $ factor taken out of the equation and concentrate on getting a furry master well. -- You got that right. This group has been fantastic so many times for so many people. I don't know if I'll ever be able to say how grateful I've been for all the monetary help and the love shown by you all. You just make me want to cry in gratitude. Pam S. with tears in her eyes again |
