Chi Chi as a baby...

Heaven got a new angel...

Heaven got a furry angel today.  We lost our Chi Chi today.  We had her for ten and a half years.  We were blessed especially to have her the last eight months, because she survived a blood clot that blocked the blood flow to her hind leg, due to Cardiomyopathy.  She also overcame a couple more blood clots, and the vet called her a miracle kitty, because it is not the norm for them to survive even the first one.  She was so special!  We will miss her so much!
The vet commented today how soft her fur was, that she had bunny fur.

We lost our sweet Chi Chi today.  We will miss her so much!  She was such a good girl! 

Haven't posted in a while...

Sorry I haven't posted in so long.  It's now 2014.  2013 saw some good changes and bad changes.  The good; Miley came into our lives.  The bad: Phil's mother died and our sweet Chi Chi started throwing blood clots due to Cardiomyopathy.  She threw another one last night that was like her initial one she had in August.  She threw another one a few weeks ago, but recovered from it very quickly, so we assumed it was a small one.  With this one, she is once again unable to use that right back leg.  There is so much worry, uncertainty and unknown with this.  All we can do is pray and give it to God.  Every day we have with her is a blessing! 
As for other things going on.  Smokey recovered from his cold and Gigi is doing better.  She has had chronic problems with upper respiratory and stomach issues.  Trying the L-Lysine to help with that and going to try another food. 
I still have the Meniere's and Neurocardiogenic Sycope.  Still have a bit of allergies and dealing with a chronic sinus infection.  Having a lot of fatigue and feeling down at times.  Just taking things a day at a time.  Try to remember every day where I am blessed! 
Wishing you all the best, and hope God is in your life.  :)

She has a name!!!

Her name is Miley! 

Chi Chi doesn't know what all the fuss is about!  lol...

 

Kitty needs a name...

On Friday night August 2nd, someone left an injured kitten on our deck.  We got her to the vets, and after x-rays, they discovered her leg was broken in several places and she also had a mouth injury.  The mouth injury was small and cosmetic, but the femur injury was severe.  They would not be able to save it, so she had surgery the next day to remove it.  Since then, she is doing very well and adapting beautifully. This past Monday the vet said she is probably 7 to 8 weeks old, and she weighed two and a half pounds.  So everything has been going well, but we cannot find the perfect name for her.  We considered Mimi, Melody, Lulu and some others.  Lulu was the strongest contender, but we still haven't found her name.
