Wasn't it just yesterday that you were my bottle baby?
Time flies! #cat #felinefamily #catrescue
Today, July 1, 2024 is the day that Pixie, Trixie and Sugar Bear officially turn ten years old. It is also the day that I turn other cats another year older, especially Sirius who was rescued with Pixie, Trixie and Sugar and saved from euthanasia.
It was about 2 weeks from this day in July of 2014 that I walked in to pull another cat from the kill list at 4:55 pm. Pixie, Trixie and Sugar - two week old infant bottle babies - were moments from being euthanized at 5:00 pm.
One girl saw me walk in and jumped up to run to the back (to stop the euthanasia)...as the other girl in the office pleaded with me to take these three bottle babies home. They had been dropped off by a breeder, and because they were bottle babies with no one to care for after hours, they were about to be euthanized.
I agreed to take them on.
While processing the paperwork for me to pull them, we determined the original cat that I came in to pull had already been rescued. As I walked into one part of the shelter, Sirus was in one of the cages. As I walked by, he tried his hardest to get my attention. A man working in the shelter asked me if I would take him home as he was worried, because Sirius was all black, that he wasn't going to make it out of there. I looked at the date....Sirius had been in the shelter for 5 weeks trying to get adopted. His time truly was almost up.
I decided to officially adopt Sirius. It was estimated that Sirius was anywhere from 2 to 4 years old when I adopted him - so therefore, Sirius turns approximately 12 to 14 today.
It was on the same day that the manager came through and said "It's time to clean the cages."
Which doesn't mean it is time to clean the litter boxes.
Everyone began scurrying about to say goodbye to those they had grown attached to taking care of.
As I was in the room with Sirius, a girl that worked there kneeled down at a cage. Inside the cage was an older, very depressed, very sick, dark chocolate brown cat named Elvis. She began to choke up. I asked what's wrong. She said "He's next...and I've been caring for him for a month, but he's not getting better. His owner passed, and the family brought him here. I just know that he would get better out of here...but his time is up. I've already begged three times for him to be saved." I said "I'll save him. Load him up."
That day, I went home with two adult cats and three bottle babies. Every single one was deathly ill - and I spent thousands getting them all better. Three weeks later, 17 trips to the emergency vet in 21 days, countless nights of bottle feeding every hour - and their strong will to live, thankfully, everyone survived.
Everyone is either still here today - or lived out a very happy life here until the day they passed. (Elvis just passed this past January at an estimated 20 years old of sudden Saddle Thrombosis. )
I hope you enjoy my content. I'm trying to grow a fully organic channel chock full of funny or informal videos/shorts of the cats here - along with some very informative content that cat lovers hopefully will find equally interesting. Check out some of my long form and short form videos - and if you decide you enjoy it, please subscribe and hit the notifications button. If you see things you think I can improve on - PLEASE let me know! I am interested in positive and negative feed back so I can improve!!
Thank you so much for watching!!
