Wednesday, Pugsley & Gomez have what we call a head scratcher going on. I noticed the other day while visiting Pugsley and Wednesday at Pet Valu on Wednesday, that they each had some bald patching, Pugsley far worse with added scabbing on his balding back right leg. Wednesday just has some signs of minor fur loss. We aren't sure if it's early stage of heading towards Pugsley & Gomez's leg condition or not. Time will tell.

We did a skin scraping on Pugsley's leg yesterday at Kahu Animal Hospital. So far, we've ruled out fleas/mites. If needed, we'll do a biopsy, but for now, their vet recommended we apply a medicated ointment on both boys and continue to monitor everyone. We don't know what could have caused this. Particularly
because all 3 have something in varying degrees of stage on one back leg. So, we monitor, apply ointment and hope it heals and turns out to just be one of those weird inexplicable things that sometimes happens. Enid seems to have evaded whatever this is, so that was a bit of good news. We'll need to check Morticia after she's a bit relaxed with meds, but there's nothing glaringly obvious when she moves about, which is a good sign.

Until we know what's going on or they magically heal because not everything has clear answers all the time, we are keeping everyone at home for monitoring.

We continue to build vet debt, and so continue to need your generosity as always.

Our senior boy, FRITZY has been dealing with some out of whack blood sugar numbers. No idea what's triggered this to happen, but we are trying some changes to his diet by cutting out his kibble to see if that helps lower his numbers. He's also had an increase of insulin, but this alone, doesn't seem to be helping the way we anticipated it would.

So, Fritzy is working on things and we hope to get him back under control soon. Thankfully, despite his his sugars ranging from 15-20+, he has not had any real changes in behaviour. His appetite was off for a couple of days, which is what brought us into Beaches Animal Hospital. He has lost weight which may be a result of his sugars being out of whack, but could also be kidney related as he does have some kidney issues. Beyond this, he seems to be the same old guy we know and love. Thankfully.

When our friends from Bone & Biscuit - Aurora, Ontario contacted us to ask if we could use some cat food donations, we said "for sure!" ... What we were not expecting, was THIS! 😻😁 What a generous gift and we are so grateful that they reached out.

Whatever we are unable to use due to the many special diets we've got going on, we will be paying it forward and passing along to others.

THANK YOU Bone & Biscuit Aurora for this wonderful gift of support!💖🙏🏻

This is how Disney feels about anyone who missed out on visiting our last remaining kittens (nearly one year old next month) this weekend at Pet Valu.

Disney says "you snooze, you lose. So, don't snooze!" 👅💦

Even Disney knows how wonderful these kittos are and she's never even met them!

Thank You to Pet Valu - Dufferin & Belgravia (Toronto, ON - Dufferin St) for all your help this weekend! Thank You to Judy for helping with set-up and feeding me and Darien for her baked cookies and also making sure I ate (this might have been the first event I've actually been so well fed all weekend! Lol - I'm terrible at remembering to pack things). And Thank You to everyone who came out to meet our sweet kittos! We hope to see some applications for foster and adoption.🙏🏻😸

This will be delivered right to the BGG's door! Times are tough for many of us out there and our foster parents aren't immune to this.
We need your help to keep our kitties fed!🙏🏻

🏠Adopt or Foster💜

If you've been contemplating adopting or maybe aren't sure or aren't in a position to take on the full finances that comes with adopting, we hope you consider fostering!

Our Brave Girls' Gang have a major upcoming change that we just can't afford to leave posting to the last minute! Their foster mom will be moving by the end of September. We don't know what that move will look like and we need to anticipate that there won't be room for everyone in her new place.

This is an amazing opportunity for those Kris' foster kitties who are ready, to finally find their forever homes, like sweet Smudge (special diet) & Millie (can be adopted together or separately, but need cat friends in their home), Rosie (sweet senior, loves grooming her friends), Fritzy (diabetic senior, prefers women) and Vanessa (solo adult who would love to get a place of her own). We also need foster homes for those who either aren't ready or able to find their forever home in time.

They range from young adults right up to seniors. Some have mild medical stuff like specific diet or supplements to help support aging or insulin, while the others are healthy and just looking for their patient, compassionate people. And then there's Blep and Bloop who need a special, understanding home to help nurture them and continue to help build their confidence and connection with people. Blep & Bloop are still quite shy and nervous, but better than they were - just very slow to trust since coming inside.

We'll be sharing everyone's bios with pics soon, but I figured, why not get a jumpstart with hope that you might apply to foster or consider adopting to give our adoptable kitties a chance to finally land forever vs. moving to a new foster home. We take pride in matchmaking to ensure both cats and people are happy in their forever home together. We match fosters the same way. We aim for success whether it's adoption or fostering.

HERC-A-TURKEY made my heart soooo happy and I'm sure you'll also be excited to hear that I caught this boy in motion! Standing up, climbing into the circular bowl cat scratcher, while his back legs flicked, hop-stepped and propelled himself over the side of the bowl where he momentarily still stood on all 4 legs before sitting down to have fun scratching the scratcher.

With the back end mobility decline Hercules has been dealing with, whenever he has attempted to climb into something, he normally tips it over because he's only using his front legs for momentum. This time, his back legs joined him in his efforts and that bowl scratcher did not tip over at all! 😁😸❤️

Let's see how the week goes, but this incredible moment is just more proof that his chiropractic treatment which includes range of motion stretches, massage and red light therapy on top of any adjustments he needs - is continuing to make a difference. Changes don't always happen overnight. It's the small improvements that let us know things are helping. Climbing into the bowl without tipping it over, is honestly, huge for him.🙏🏻💖

My heart feels so happy and hopeful right now.🥰 While an MRI would totally be useful in providing a complete picture of his physical make-up, it won't fix what's going on with him. I'm so, so very relieved that we have found something that is working for him despite the inability to afford an MRI. Sometimes, we need to think outside the box when the options presented aren't possible in the immediate.
