Gimli’s update – A Little Kitten with a Big Battle

Sweet little Gimli came to us recently after being sadly dumped. Our wonderful vets took great care of him .He was poorly with cat flu, very underweight, and had an abnormal bottom.

With time, love, and care, his cat flu improved and he started to gain weight. We were so hopeful for him. But we still needed answers about his bottom, so he was seen by a wonderful vet.They did tests and they found he had a stricture, a narrowing inside, making it difficult for him to poo properly.

Last week, the vet carefully stretched the area, which sometimes works well in kittens. At first, things seemed to improve – but sadly, the stricture returned, which we knew was a possibility.

He had to return to the vet on Thursday, where they removed a large mount of backed-up poo and did another stretch. This has helped but little Gimli is still struggling.

The poo is coming past his stricture but then poo is getting stuck in a pouch near his bottom, making it extremely difficult and uncomfortable for him to pass it. He is trying so hard, but it’s not fair on him.

He’s on multiple medications to help soften his poo and to keep him as pain-free as possible. But at this point, we don’t know if repeated stretching are right for him ( it has been known to work in other cats ) So tomorrow, he’ll be seeing the vet again to discuss the possibility of surgery to properly correct the issue.

It’s not what we wanted to put such a small kitten through – but the truth is, he uses his bum every day, and it needs to be comfortable for him. While surgery carries risks, we believe this could give him the best chance at a pain-free, happy life.

Gimli is a sweet, playful little soul. But after everything, he’s understandably become wary of being handled – especially after needing so many baths due to poo accidents. We can’t blame him. He’s been through a lot for someone so tiny.

We’re doing absolutely everything we can for him. He deserves to feel well, to play without pain, and to grow up without this constant discomfort. Please keep little Gimli in your thoughts tomorrow – we’re hoping the vet can find a way to help him move forward.

Our Precious Wilma Needs Help Now😭 — Urgent Neurology Referral and MRI Underway 💔

Nearly two weeks ago, we welcomed Wilma into our care a small, wobbly kitten who instantly captured our hearts. She was left at a vet who suspected she had wobbly kitten syndrome. They passed her to us and we also we suspected she had wobbly kitten syndrome (cerebellar hypoplasia), as her symptoms were stable. She was playful, happy, using the toilet, and living a good quality life. We thought maybe this was just how Wilma was a bit wobbly, but full of life and love. We had her at our vet to check and rule out other things they did tests and all came back clear. She was doing well in foster care .

However things have taken a heartbreaking turn.A few days ago, we noticed Wilma having what looked like seizures in her sleep. She would wake up and be absolutely fine purring, walking, playing. They would only happen in her sleep she was otherwise ok. The vet suggested we start her on seizure medication to see if it helped so we did .

Sadly, Wilma went downhill fast after starting the meds. We don’t know yet if it’s connected, she had the meds Friday evening and Saturday morning . Then by Saturday night she went off her food. By Sunday morning, she wasn’t the same kitten. She was falling over constantly, not purring, not eating she just wasn’t her self.

We rushed her to the vets and she was admitted . They referred urgently to a neurology specialist and they have seen her today . She’s in the specialist vets now undergoing an MRI, a spinal tap, and further testing to try and uncover what’s going on. Right now, there could be a number of things ,we just don’t know.

We also don’t know her historyz we don’t know if she’s always been this way, or if something changed suddenly before she came to us. We wish someone would tell her her history. If she was your cat we won't be mad we just need more information to help her the best we can.
For now all we know is that she’s loved. We will do absolutely everything in our power to get her the help she needs.

She deserves that and so much more. It’s hard to explain, but Wilma is just one of those special cats. The kind that steals your heart the moment you meet her. Everyone who spends time with her falls in love. We just want her to be happy healthy and enjoying life.

This is going to be costly. The vets have estimated around £2,500 for her initial tests though this may change depending on what they find and what further treatment or diagnostics she might need. We don’t have an invoice yet, as they’re understandably busy, but we do have an email confirming the estimate and will share that in the comments. Once we get the estimate or invoice sent we will share them too.

Please keep Wilma in your thoughts today. She’s such a special little soul. We just want her back to the bright, wobbly, wonderful girl we know and love.

We will keep you posted. 💔

Blue loves to play 😁 his favourite toy is these little mice 🐁

For anyone who hasn’t seen his story: Baby Blue was found outside unable to use his back legs just dragging himself, covered in maggots and fleas. After thorough vet checks to rule out other issues, he was diagnosed with swimmers syndrome. We’re treating him with hobbles to keep his legs in the right position, along with lots of daily physio exercises. With round the clock care, we’re hopeful we can get him walking. We’re already seeing some encouraging improvements. Keep an eye on our socials for more updates on him 💙

Multiple times a day I rub Blue’s paws as part of his rehabilitation to walk ❤️

I trialled Blue without his blanket for support whilst he eats. He can kind of stand short term but his legs do go out and he falls to the side. I correct him where possible to try encourage standing for longer each time. He is supported and he is improving ❤️🙏

( Yes I need to hoover but I don't want to terrify him right now )
