Syd Home !!

He is here ,at least for a night or two just a reprieve until the surgery can be scheduled ! He lay around in his favorite spots,played with some yarn I was rolling and took a nap with his "MOM" who was very tired from all the stress!! His little paws are shaved bare where the IV was inserted,and his neck sore where he had his blood drawn. We will keep track of his story as it unfolds here at Sew Nana ! thanks for reading!!

For The Love of SYD !!!

Leave it to a sick kitty! Our Syd made his trip to the animal hospital where he is now,and will hopefully come home on Saturday.He must have his urinary catheter removed first and be able to urinate on his own.What is amazing is that family ,previously not close have united in their love of our family pet choice,our cats!! Amazing,and wonderful,and hopeful for us all,we still need to get through the surgery which we hope will take place next week,the surgeon is very reassuring that this is a treatable condition,although we are not telling Syd that HE will for all purposes look like a "girl" but only from the outside! His heart will remain his moms' little "boy" and he will continue to strut his manliness around the house,his little sister Molly will not be told!! So no such teasing will go on here!!! Until our update tomorrow I will enlist your prayers for our "boy" and send our pet prayers to everyone in need also, love nana

A Coat Of Many Colors

Appropriatly titled you could say! We had a slight emergency here tonight! My sisters cat Sydney developed a urinary "blockage" tonight he has had this condition twice before so she knew the "SIGNS" well,so we made a trip to the emergency vet at 1030 pm,they kept him of course,he was in OR by the time we got home,they do not want you to stay we will pick him up in AM and take him to his own vet,where he will await his now must have corrective surgery so this does not continue to plague him,it is scary for all of us especially his "mom" Tina Syd is her "soul mate of cats",we all have pets like Syd,they are our family,our babies ,our children when our "children" have grown and "flown the nest".Pets love us unconditionally,they trust without knowing the consequences of a broken trust,they must count on us for their needs,if we let them down where would they be? I would ask all of our fellow pet people out there to pass the word to anyone who will listen,pleeease ! make that commitment before you take a pet to your home,make it for life,I see the cats especially, with notes on their cages ,at Petsmart ,OWNER MOVING.. so!!! take the cat..or dog..you made the choice,they trust,they love their people!!,pets hurt too,they get sad,lonely,depressed, kinda like people! So I will close for now ,just think!!! love,nana
