Sugi is better

Hallo dear friends and donors,


I have not posted for quite some time for my 11 year old son was pretty sick - apparently swine flu! But, thank God, he is a healthy boy, so he just had to go through it, and pull himself without any special medicine, and he did!

Sugi is much, much better, and his skin is healing . Little Milance is , more or less, good, for now. We all know how , from time to time, his little stumps get infected, but not for now. We also might have a new donor for some kind of a little device that would help Milance move easier, and not hurt the stumps any longer.

Here is a very special news: Danica is moving the shelter to the country side ! This has been in cooking for several months now, but we did not want to say anything, for, Danica was afraid that it would all fall through the cracks. Well, it did not this time! There is a person , who does not want to be identified, for obvious reasons, who recently bought an old house in the country, and is giving it to Danica to use for the shelter, as long as she wants. This is absolutely great news, because the cats will be much, much safer there. It is a very quiet and friendly place, with two neighbors on each side, and not very close, and a lots of fields of corn and flax! The place, however, needs to be fixed in order to house cats, fixed big time, so now we are trying to come up with some extra money. So, whoever can donate, we want you to know that a big portion of the money will go to prepare a news shelter for the kitties , bigger, nicer, and much, much safer(unless, God forbid, some new emergency vet needs).

I will post more new photos tomorrow

Sugi

Here is a new stray, that Danica called Sugi when she saw him for the first time, because he looked like he was all mangy. When she got hold of him, and took him to the vet, it turned out he was burnt. We do not wan even to think how it might have happened.

There are photos of him getting infusion, (note how his little pads are red, and also the tip of his tail that has no fur), and then Danica gave him a proper bath, because he was poopy, from fear. Never ending story on new strays, scared, wounded, hurt, abused...

To cheer up everyone, I am also posting pictures of Lizan and Okac, cleaning each other, cuddling, bonding... Very cute.

As you can see, vet bills never get any smaller.

I will keep you posted on poor Sugi.

Sleeping patterns

Some of these pictures are absolutely hard to believe - only kitties can roll themselves like that, twist and scroll, wind and turn! So, here are Danica's cats , sleeping!

And, as always: please,give, if you can. Danica is trying to take proper care of many, many strays, and she needs every bit of your precious and appreciated help. Thank you!

News & little videos

Since Milance does not have to have an expensive surgery right now, and we are expecting an answer from Handicapped Pet foundation on the little wheels they might provide for him - Danica managed to spay/neuter three cats for the money, two of which are the tenants of the shelter, but not completely docile, and hard to trap. The third one is our beautiful, but,oh, so temperament Augusta! Danica is very happy - needless to say, because the cats are so much better off, in every aspect, when spayed/neutered.

After the latest turmoil with Milance, this is a period, dare I say, of a relative calm ( every time I say this, something bad happens, God forbid)

For your amusement, we give you: Augusta in a box!!!



And this video is little sad , you can see one of the cats, Tigi, waiting for Danica pretty far from the shelter area, when she was at the vet with other cat. And how he is dodging the cars, and the reason he is safe is that he is following Danica's familiar, beloved voice.

And also, because it is so sweet and funny: one more video of Augusta & Zvrkitsa:

New videos

...from the shelter. People, you have to see how these cats relate to Danica... Every time I am reminded of it, I can not help but remember what our old friend and donor Frank said once: she is a saint.

The videos, from top to the bottom:

Pukilence, in front of the shelter

Dodjos, a nice male, very sweet disposition, who gets fed, but does not enter the shelter often

Utata - remember her, little new kitten, from this summer. See how grown she is!
