Meet Seaerra! She’s a seven year old Ragdoll mix cat. She’s a resident (cage B-58) at the Friendship APL in Elyria, Ohio, and has been there for quite some time. She arrived at the shelter severly matted and had to be shaved down. Her coat is growing back in beautifully! She does okay with kids and dogs, but does not get along with other cats. She is also front declawed.
Mother actually got to spend some time with her back in early December. Seaerra is almost identical in looks to my sister Sunshine that past away a few years ago. Mother says that Seaerra has the same sweet and affectionate temperment that Sunny had! Mother had a very hard time resisting taking Seaerra home, but the fact that she doesn’t like cats would have posed a problem in our household. But she will still make a great companion for someone that is looking for an affectionate cat. She purred the entire time Mother held her, and never once struggled to break free. She also licked Mother’s fingers. Don’t let that 7 year old thing scare you away either. Seven is still young for a cat and she has a lot of life left in her.
If you would like more information on Seaerra, please contact the Friendship APL directly. Their phone number is (440)322-4321 or visit their website at www.friendshipapl.org.
We’re excited to participate in this week’s Pet Blogger Hop! Thanks to our hosts, Life With Dogs, Two Little Cavaliers, and Confessions of the Plume. Happy hopping, and happy weekend too!
Hey all! Guess what? I’ve been adopted! After 11 months of living with my foster Mom, she decided to adopt me. She said it was an easy decision. As you know I’ve had a lot of medical problems. I strain a lot when I try to poop, and sometimes it gets stuck or it hurts to get it out (sorry to be so graphic).
While in the care of Canine Lifeline I went through a series of tests and was diagnosed with nerve damage likely caused by a trauma. My bladder and instestines are displaced (not sitting where they should be). They told us that this couldn’t be fixed, and would need to manage it with food and medicine.
About a month ago Mom took me back to the vets to have my “plumbing irrigated”. Not Fun! During that vet visit they told Mom that I also have a perineal hernia. The hernia can be fixed with surgery and we were referred to a specailist.
The specialist reviewed my entire medical history and told Mom that there was a procedure they could do to correct the displaced bladder and intestines, as well as a surgery for the hernia. However, both surgeries could not be done at the same time. Mom was ecstatic that I had a chance to be healthy again and agreed to the surgery to correct my bladder and intestines.
The surgery was two weeks ago and I’m recuperating nicely, but I will still need the hernia surgery. The medical bills for the surgeries cost approximately $4,500. Yikes! I’m so thankful this holiday season that I found the best Mom ever! She’s going to help me get better so I can be the best dog ever!
Check out a couple of videos of me below. This video was taken when I was at the shelter.
This one was taken shortly after my surgery. Frankie, the new cat (more about him in a future post), is attempting his healing powers on me.
The dogs got themselves into trouble, and Mother managed to catch the whole thing via a webcam. Over the course of several weeks she would come home to find things destroyed. Things the dogs would ordinarily never touch, all of a sudden were on the floor and chewed up (books, papers, boxes, etc). She knew Charm (the foster dog) wasn’t the culprit because he is crated during the day, but she wasn’t sure if she should blame Duke or Daisy for the mess. She decided to implement operation “Catch a Bad Dog”. She set up her webcam and hit record, and this video is the result. She was quite surprised on the guilty party (be sure to watch through to the end). Enjoy!
