Northeast forum Pets 4

Yes, all three of mine are boys.

Victor - Crash and Spooky look so sweet together. Isn't that unusual for cats?

No, cats tend to hang together, even when they fight at times. More so with males, though.

thank you Louise... yes whacked out tired.. but very happy

Do you have buyers for all of them?

I think so... but we might keep one

You keeping a male or female?

Jumper that is so cool that they can ride home the way they want! Alice is a gorgeous ride!!!

Lucy - loved the shots of your daughter and Alice....what a cool senior tradition!!

Oh, Allison - I do hope you keep a puppy!!! Lily would like that, wouldn't she? They are so cute and she is such a trooper mommy!!! (and you are a real trooper grandmommy too!) I planted out all of your coleus cuttings today. Glad I waited until that crazy storm passed from yesterday. They all have nice little roots, so fingers are crossed for them!

Way cool ride on Alice....she's a doll. So good for DD to have a horse, am hoping my grandkids get a pony.

One of the kids drove a tractor to school. Alice is mine to ride when DD heads off to school.

we would most likely keep a girl... bad news about Lily she has a fever... they said she has an infection... not sure how bad yet... but it might just be another placenta left behind... glad to see they didn't find any remains left behind if you know what I mean... but gave her a shot to help her uterus contract and try and push out what's in there... and I had to give her a 2nd one tonight... antibiotics.. and we have to take her tomorrow for another check up.. worst case scenario they might have to do a hysterectomy... best case.. the meds will take care of the problem... see what happens tomorrow... all started because she was not eating right and I was getting worried ... glad we brought her

Oh gosh Allison I hope she is OK♥

Good luck, Allison. Hope she's better real soon.

thanks guys... feel like I am torturing a bunch of dogs... Lily is getting a real soft baby food like dog food from a syringe.... the pups are getting supplemented with formula... the ones that are refusing the bottle are getting a tubed syringe (to give Lily a break)... had to give Lily a shot... I HATE BEING THE MEAN ONE!!!

:(

Don't worry, tell them it's for their own good.

I gave my dog insulin shots for 2 years. Allison dont think of it as torture as it would be torture if you didnt.

Allison, it will be OK. I just watched Cesar Milan last night (why? no clue here) and he said that dogs only live in the moment - so Lily won't remember the shots at all.

Cats on the other hand, remember everything and hold lifetime long grudges. (He didn't say that, but I know they do.)

Dogs have a sixth sense they know by the tone of your voice and by their instinct if you mean them harm or not.

Allison sending prayers and good thoughts for Lily and you today. Hoping for the best, (((Lily, Allison, Randy, & Pups)))

What a good mom you are, Allison! You certainly did the right and necessary thing for baby Lily....and her pups as well! Good for you....not easy to do!! Keep us posted on how Lily is doing, and of course the puppies too.

Thinking about you all!
Louise

Hugs to you Allison, & Lily!

Allison, thinking of you all today.

Yeah, me too, Allison.....keep checking here for an update....hope you are all getting some rest and enjoying the puppies.

rest what's that... been up since 3AM ... and had an hour nap somewhere in there... Lily is starting to feel better ... still a bit weak but you can see the meds are doing there job.. no more fever.. and the discharge has stopped now... we must have done 18 loads of laundry since tuesday.... and for us 2 that is crazy... as for the pups all the healthy ones are getting chubbier every day... and Hope was doing better... than not so much.... now seems to be going back up... as I am typing she is trying to hold her ground in the feeding frenzy ... Randy and I have been feeding all the pups with a syringe a few times a day to give Lily a break and Hope 1/2 a chance to eat from her.... Michele found to put a tiny drop of Kero syrup on my finger and it will give her the boost to try and eat .. otherwise the monkeys would just knock her out of the way... she wouldn't have a chance to get strong.... we thought she was feeding on Lily a few days ago.... only to realize yes she was trying.. but must not have the suction to get the amount she needs... so back to the syringe every 2 hours until she gets stronger... we freaked when we saw she lost weight.. she is so tiny and can't afford to loose anything.... so hopefully it will get better soon.... oh and not one of them will eat with the bottle now... all they do is just make a goofy face if we try and put it in there mouths

Oh boy. Best to all of you!!

thanks... we are all beat that's for sure

Allison I am sending healing thoughts to Lily!! Take care♥

Yippee for the antibiotics!! Glad to hear she's doing better! ^_^

Sounds pretty Ruff

thank you... it is ruff!!!

late for work already

:(

Lily deserves a doggie spa day!

Yes, she does! Allison, too!

And Randy!

yes we all could.. nice part of feeding them for her now and then.. she saw they were all passed out.. and came by me on the sofa and took a nice nap

Hang in.

Wish I were closer to try to help you with them! Wishing you all really good thoughts!! You are doing a super job, Allison! Thanks for taking the time to let us know how things are going. Not easy to find the time, I'm sure!

Yes, thanks Allison.

now that I have a rhythm on how to do things it is getting easier... and trust me Louise I wish you were closer too... thanks for the support guys... your cyber hugs do help me along

Just wondering how 'mama' and the little ones are doing this morning.
