An update on Roux from Dr. Angie. Please watch until the end of the video for the email from our veterinarian. 12/14/2025

"Good afternoon Sue

Sweet Roux has been doing well except I noticed this morning a little more sneezing and nasal discharge than had been the past couple days. He also wasn’t as eager to eat as he had been yesterday (but still eating all his food and good stool). I came back this afternoon and he ate; however, his temperature is at 103.1. He is receiving his Doxycycline twice a day and his probiotic. I think we are going to need to call in some Famciclovir, anti-viral, to Professional Arts Pharmacy in the morning to add to his regimen. This is a little set back. I can call it in when the open and hopefully they can deliver to us. Unfortunately unless you do have the place to continue keeping him isolated, he will need at least a few more days isolated to now. I’m sorry but wanted to keep you updated.

Poor Roux, the rescue kitten, was hospitalized and is in quarantine today. He has watery eyes, runny nose, sniffles, a fever over 104, and his spine and abdomen appear to be painful. Dr. Angie said he's too young for the pain medication that they would normally use for fever reduction. He only weighs 3.5 pounds. So she's giving him cold sub-q fluids as needed to try to bring his fever down. She also put him on doxycycline antibiotics. We're hoping he responds well and gets better soon! Roux is currently at Companion Animal Hospital of Lafayette getting the best care possible. If anyone would like to call in a donation to our vet, we would greatly appreciate it. Just call the vet at 337-284-8898 and ask them to apply your payment to the account of Acadiana Humane Society for Roux the kitten.

Acadiana Humane Society volunteers do this every major holiday eve, and also every Sunday! Our volunteers give of their free time to pickup short dated food donations from a store, and then meet up at a warehouse that we have permission to use, and sort the donations to be dispersed to those in need. We have our AHS Food Bank for people who need help with food insecurity. Many of our food bank recipients have no way to go to community fridges, so our volunteers help get food to them. Any extra food that we can't immediately get to our recipients is then offered to one or more of the several organizations who help to feed the homeless, have a love basket ministry, or stock free community fridges, etc. We never photograph the people we give food too. But, we do photograph the donations. We forgot to take pictures of the 3 pickup trucks full of food donations last night! We were so busy sorting the approximately 1K pounds of food that we didn't take pictures. When we were done, we did take photos of the 4 tables of leftover food that we in turn donated to Feeding Others: Outreach & Distribution / FOOD Acadiana and St Barnabas Lafayette to then be dispersed among the various community fridges including the Lafayette Community Fridge and Space Cat Community Fridge and a few other fridges. We also took pictures of some of the food that we set aside in our fridge/freezer to be delivered later today or tomorrow. Thank you so much to our volunteers and the volunteers from the other organizations for sacrificing your free time last night! Some of our volunteers did not get home until 2AM today! Many of these same volunteers are out and about making deliveries today! We are so thankful to our volunteers and to the store that donates to us for this outreach ministry! If any other local stores, or individuals, are interested in donating, please reach out to us via email (click email link on our main page) with how you would like to help us help others. Teamwork really does make the dream work!

Roux says "Look into my eyes." He is the current face of our rescue. Our volunteer saved him when she stopped a driver from running over him in a parking lot. She jumped in front of her car while motioning for her to stop. She then told her to wait while she grabbed the kitten that was sitting in front of her rear tire, just inches from becoming one with the asphalt. The vet said he only has minor soft tissue damage, most likely from being dropped out of a vehicle window when abandoned there. He is currently on cage rest so his hip and hind leg can heal.

To follow Roux's rescue story, follow us on Facebook at Acadiana Humane Society and on our website at www.acadianahumane.org/catblogger

Dropped Roux the kitten at Companion Animal Hospital of Lafayette for his first vet exam after being rescued over the weekend. Poor Roux has a limp.

We still need to raise over $400.00 for the remainder of Jade's dental surgery bills as well. The vet's number is 337-284-8898.
Anything helps! Thank you!

A volunteer saved this tiny kitten from becoming part of the asphalt today. We happened to be in the right place at the right time to quickly save this dumped baby from an early grave. Sponsors for veterinarian bills and kitten food would be greatly appreciated!
