As one who has made several different medical conditions a part of the family with several different cats over the years, I can say that they are the ones that touch your heart the most. No matter what, they seem to sense that you are trying to help, not harm, them. Hopefully with meds and love Wylla will live a long and happy life.gypsytoohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15194589752913265870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6833186746180765380.post-59326875210105827602013-03-27T03:52:51.189-07:002013-03-27T03:52:51.189-07:00There is a pup over at Noah's Ark with the sam...There is a pup over at Noah's Ark with the same condition.

Training her to eat upright and be held from a very young age will make things much easier for her adoptive family.

Thank you for all you do for the kittens, especially for the more fragile ones like Wylla. She is such a beauty and such a love and I'm sure you will find her the right, loving home.

I believe that you do pay for the kitten food and litter (and toys)... but the medical care? If so, can we please help you? I know that each of those little trips and tests and radiologies can add up very, very quickly. I promise we won't go overboard (think = saving it for the dogathon!) but I think I speak for the community when I say we want to help you carry this burden. It is the very least we can do for you and Craig (and Miss Bean, of course).
