Oh no Dan,
Purrs for Harri to get better soon and to forgo any complications. She is such a wee little thing to be so ill. I read your title and cryed. Harri and your family will be in my prayers and thoughts until she pulls through this ordeal. Skritches, KittyLady |

"ShortTail Tom" wrote in message news I can't imagine what it would be like getting paid only once a month. With my relativelypoor financial discipline I would never make it! But purrs and prayers are needed now more than anything else. Many of us get paid just once a month. It was difficult in the beginning, but I simply developed a system in which I realized that "I won't have any more money next week than I have this week," so I plan my payments and expenses around that one pay date -- regardless of when the payments are actually due. I also try to schedule large payments (mortgage, car) so they are due about a week after I am paid. That way, the largest payments come out first; but the week's time allows some leeway for mail when I am on vacation. MaryL |

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 Dan, we still have a little bit of money leftover from Tweed's flowers, I'm sure folks wouldn't mind donating it for Harri's vet bill. I'd be happy to add some to it. Anybody else? Definitely! Dan, if you'll post your vet's name and phone number we could call in credit card payments (I've done so a number of times and there was never a problem). Ten or twenty bucks is about the cost of just one lunch - but when twenty or thirty people contribute just that much it adds up quite quickly and can help someone out of a bad spot. Hugs, CatNipped Anyhow, purrs for Harri's recovery would be greatly appreciated. Lots and lots of purrs! -- Victor M.

... 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. Ohmygawd, Dan, I'm so sorry to hear Harri is so ill. Tons of purrs are on the way. Dan, if you'll post your vet's name and phone number I can call in a few bucks on my credit card - it won't be much, but if others do too it can add up quickly. I never mind doing this, I don't even notice the small payment - and I might be in the same boat one day and need the help myself. Hugs, CatNipped |

I called the vet just now to make a donation. They've aready gotten two
more and they're very touched that people care enough to do this. They didn't have the lab results yet, but the lady said Harri is still having difficulty breathing, so keep the purrs coming! Victor |

Monty is purring; he's good at that.
Dan, is Harri at the animal hospital on Colton between New York and Tennessee? If so, yes, they're excellent, and are where Monty has his quarterly blood tests. If I (the other local hooman...) can help, please let me know. -- Emc^2 |
