A Year to the Day

Last year our cat Max was seriously ill. He had 3 surgeries within 6 days and spend 8 days in cat Intensive Care. He was catherized 7 times and rushed to the ER more than I want to remember. It was a stressful December for us...and for the cat.

As the fates would have it, our vet called today with the results of his urinalysis from last week. He's clear of bacteria, finally. This means no more nightly med's--at least until next month when we have him tested again to make sure nothing is growing in his bladder. The cat has been spectacular--he has bucked it up to having pills and liquids shoved down his throat for over a year and still loved us like crazy.

Today is my husband's birthday--last year was the worst and today is a day for celebration. Happy Birthday to the most loving and caring man I know. He never questioned whether we would save this cat or not.

Thank you to all who look over the animals of this world.
