"Sherry " wrote in message ... I also have a stray right now with third eyelids showing. He has been here about a week and a half, and was severely dehydrated and starved when I brought him in. He no longer appears to be dehydrated, and seems to be settled down to eating a regular amount, but the third eyelids are still showing. :-( A friend sent me some Advantage, so I was able to de-flea him, but I can't afford a vet visit to get the little guy tested or a Droncit for the worms I'm also certain he has. He has a date to go into the shelter in two weeks. I'm going to see if I can talk my vet out of a Droncit and see if that clears up the third eyelid thing, since I've read that is another thing that can cause it. Crossing my fingers! Ginger-lyn Ohhh, poor kitty. Where did you find him? Biskit *still* isn't eating right. She gobbles food like it's going to disappear. Sherry I rescued my Betsy almost five years ago and she still has a tendancy to gobble food. I used to free feed my other cat, but can not since Betsy's arrival. Linda |

"Sherry " wrote in message ... Have you named her yet? Yeah, her name is Biskit. She jumped up on the window that night while we were wattching Seabiscuit. And also because she kneads *everything* all tthe time. When the vet picked her up, he said, "Oh, look. She's making biscuits." CUTE!!! |

"Sherry " wrote in message ... She is neat looking! But what are those little bumps on her back leg? Hopefully just matted fur? I just looked again at the pic. I don't know what that is. Maybe a leaf or something stuck to her leg. Anyway, it's just something in the picture. Oh good, I was concerned it was something like linear granuloma. Thanks for compliment! I think her little mask is so cute. She is a precious girl and so lucky to have found you. |

I put food and water out for any strays/ferals in the neighborhood.
Luckily, he wasn't as skittish as some, and when he showed up for dinner, I managed to get him to come over to me (after about 10 minutes of freezing my *** off!). Unfortunately, there are still two other cats out there. Sigh. But I have to get little Alex taken care of first. He's such a sweetheart. He's stopped gobbling, and now he eats mostly when one of us is in there with him (I think we aren't in there enough, and he's very social and misses company when we aren't there). Although he gets *really* excited and waits by the spot where I put down the dish when he gets his canned food at night, and gobbles *that* down (first time I tried to give him canned food, he looked at it like "What the heck is *that*?). Anyway, hopefully Biskit will realize soon she doesn't have to worry about a food source anymore :-) Ginger-lyn That's where I was really lucky. Biskit wasn't hard to catch at all. I still can't imagine where she came from. We don't have houses close to us at all. She almost had to have been dumped here. Sherry |
