Stumble It!
Good thoughts about a pussycat
A sudden thump outside the window. Baby, majesterial atop the TV receiver, gazes with disdain across the room, where a neigborhood cat (inset) -- perhaps come to wish Baby's sister, Tiny, good health, suggests Tuck -- has ensconsed himself on the part of the air conditioner that extends beyond the outside wall. During the feline equivalent of high-level talks (staring alternately at each other and then off into space), the outside cat is the first to blink and retreats.
Tiny Report: She had a quiet night with breathing stable after we left Angell Memorial last evening. We're thinking that perhaps the excitement of our visit may have precipitated the gasping breathing she experienced after we arrived. They had signs saying "Scared" and "Easily stressed" stuck on the front of her cage -- too poignant. She seemed really glad to see us, swishing about and brushing against our hand.
They're going to adjust the medications to help air intake today so that she will be able to breathe easily when taken out of oxygen. Dr. Grossbard, her original Emergency-Room doc, will call this afternoon -- 3 or later -- with update. Thanks so much to our wonderful readers for your good thoughts about a pussycat.
Thanks so much for the update.The way I feel is that all cats are my cat and I want Tiny to be well and back home with Baby and you guys as soon as possible.
I am keeping my fingers crossed for Tiny's complete recovery and that her pictures will soon be gracing the pages of this blog again..

She's not a pussycat at all -- she's a Tiny piece of your heart.
I'm keeping you all in my prayers.

I'd be scared and easily stressed if I were in the hospital too... poor Tiny... positive thought of the day... The Medicine WILL Work!
Hugs to Baby who must be missing Tiny so very much.

Our best wishes and prayers for a speedy and complete recovery go out to Tiny.
They may be "just animals" to some, but our Animal Companions are an important piece of our lives, giving us their love and loyalty. And opportunities for skritches.
