10th anniversary of Gotcha Precious

 "Lynn, I am so glad I got got.  It was a difficult life for me in the orphanage. I am such a loner, all those friendly felines were overwhelming and I 'bout starved myself to death 'fore you found me."

Precious arrived at home on January 8, 2013.

She had been in the orphanage only a couple months.

Precious was maybe 13 to 15 months old when she came home here.

And she was grossly under weight. Less than 5 pounds. In this

photo she had been with us a few weeks and was eating well and

gaining a bit of weight.  The vet wanted her to be 7 pounds very

very soon.  

She took to life with us very easily, once we figured out that

her name was Precious and she answered to it.  We thought

that was just an orphanage "handle" and tried a few new

names on her and she ignored us completely.

 

She came with a few other problems soon corrected by the

meds we had to apply.  She had a cloud in her left eye the

vet was concerned was cancer but gave us eye drops of some

sort to use for a couple months and it finally just disappeared.

She has a crooked left hind leg from a break not attended to.

And she had ear mite debris so bad that it took 3 trips to

the vet to wash her ears clean.  The humane society of

course, had quarantined her and deloused Precious before she

was released into the general cat population.

She gives me much comfort and love even when she is under 

the bed!  I give her hair brushing every day and I get 3 hours

of leg time every evening (even on the day of a vet visit).

"Lynn, this place is OK with me, but I really need my sleep and

all this clicky clacky 'puter stuffy is interfurring. Give it a rest."

Thank you for stopping by for a visit and a comment.

It is much appreciated.
