Cat Post #14: Contagion Within the Litter

The two girls have eye infections and are on eye gel 2x per day as well as antibiotics 2x a day. The boys are showing signs of the same infection. I will have to pay $260 for just the two girls to be tested for what the vet said is, worst case, cat herpes -which is not good news...

It was heartbreaking to hear that they possibly have manageable, but not treatable, ailments. However, the vet said that if the girls eyes improved within 24-48 hours since first starting meds, thar was a good sign. Unfortunately I tried to post a too-long home video, but I'm not a paypig.... the babies are getting bigger everyday, I have the charts to prove it! :marseythumbsup:

Anyhow, please send good energy to the little ones and their absolute superstar of a momma. Maybe a little to me and my bf as well; it's been a long two weeks. However, these cats being fed every two hours is no longer necessary. They're cutting their formula intake by half starting tomorrow (although I'm going to give everyone extra before I go to work shh :marseyfloch: ).

I hope you are all well, I will aim to shoot shorter videos as usual and post soon. I'm going into work still half-sick though not gonna lie. Gotta keep a roof over our heads....

Are the cat costs cutting into your ability meet basic expenses?

It's certainly painful to drain my savings this quickly, but I would say that I'm shifting around my budget pretty easily for now. My boyfriend is going to pay me a few hundred to cover a bit, he just hasn't had the chance to hit up the bank. Mostly I've just had to purchase my groceries more thoughtfully (considering cost, time the food lasts, etc) and it's not bad. Frankly though, I am taking more stimulants in order to skip meals, although I'm dieting regardless. There is no need to be concerned over anything but their lives. Money will never mean anything compared to a life.

:marseysurejan: depends on the life and the money :platybruh:

I'm glad to hear things are stable, and I'll pray for the little tards' health. Thanks for saving them :marseybabylove::marseybabylove::marseybabylove:

I understand that mindset has limitations, but in this case, frankly I've been saving up for something. Diverting those assets to cat care is fine by me for now.

They're happy little marseys, that's what matters.

It's definitely a more meaningful use of money than some purchase. You're giving them a chance to live. You know you're going to end up keeping all of them, right?

Yeah, I thought a new car fund was necessary after a car driving scare in January. I can divert the funds as long as I'm still able to drive my current car just fine. Is it trash? Of course, but its my trashy little car. I've had it for 14 years.

I've pretty much forced life into the smaller ones frankly. They're such fussy little things! But theyre mine :marseyagree:
