She is still quite congested with runny eyes but I think the worst of it is now over and she was grooming herself and engaged in abit of play with me while we spent time together, all very encouraging signs. Can I just say that I HATE it when one of my kids won't eat - foster or otherwise. I find nothing more stressful and if it goes on too long, than I really start to worry.
Spending time with her, I can't get over what a gorgeous torti she is. Her colouring is so rich and her markings are just beautiful; not to mention that her coat is very thick and when you pet her it's as if your hand is sinking in. I've brushed her a number of times since she's arrived and not only does she seem to find it relaxing, I've literally gotten a whole other cat out of her already!
Here are some new pictures of our little sweetie. She's been so good overall and I'm convinced that after she's feeling totally recovered, she'll be adopted very quickly. Yes I know I've been saying that alot lately but I've got another good feeling about this one. :))
She is really beautiful and her coat IS gorgeous too! We are happy to hear she is showing interest in food on her own slowly but surely!

what a cutie !!! She does look better too, her eyes are kinda sparkling. She is so lucky to have landed on your door step !!
ReplyDeleteI have found that making a tea out of goldneseal works wonders for mucus.. once it is room temp (or still slightly warm) you can put a drop or two in each nostril which will help flush mucus out, as well as temporarily reduce the inflamed mucus membranes. I've also used it in eyes (my own as well) with great success.
ReplyDeleteI got some dried leaves as well as ground root and use both in the tea that I make..
What a sweet heart ♥
