We FOUND a real dying CASTAWAY - Sailing Supernova [Ep. 43]

We were shocked to find a stranded, almost dead castaway on this uninhabited island! Our plans have taken a turn and now we will be heading back in the direction we came to get help. It's touch and go, but we will do all we can.

[@southernfriedheathen994]

As a vet tech, I'm so impressed that you guys did the right thing and fed her small amounts. Refeeding syndrome would have definitely been a huge risk for her. Thank you for doing it the right way! 🫶

[@psyience3213]

is that pretty ubiquitous across all mammals or all animals or what?

[@southernfriedheathen994]

@@psyience3213 Yes, to some degree because it involves the very basics of bodily functions pertaining to fluid levels, electrolyte balance, organ function, etc... Refeeding syndrome is where a dramatic change occurs in the body's chemistry when food is reintroduced to a body that has been in starvation mode. Shunting fluids and electrolytes to pertinent organs is a normal everyday occurrence and is perfectly fine in a healthy specimen, but when the body has been depleted of these basic necessary chemicals and is critically low in fluids, there isn't enough of either in the body to allow for normal digestion. It's like trying to start a car without gas. In these cases, even with humans, feeding tiny amounts, like 1 piece of food the size of a quarter, every hour, is the recommended way to refeed. And I should add that an animal in that condition should always be evaluated by a vet asap because it can very quickly result in multi organ failure and death.

[@psyience3213]

@@southernfriedheathen994 great to know, thanks for the reply! ofc i would prefer a vet, but i also bank medical info for when shtf and there are no more! lol so would a sugar free electrolyte drink help best first, again in small doses?

[@southernfriedheathen994]

@@psyience3213 The rule for consuming liquids is not the same as consuming food. The only rule for liquids is that you or whoever (whatever) the patient is, doesn't drink so much so fast that it causes vomiting, because the body can't afford to vomit up what little fluid it has left. For liquids, I'd recommend sipping continuously until thirst sensation is quenched. For animals, you'll need to limit the volume because they won't stop and will drink until they vomit - so, a small amount in a bowl every 15 to 30 minutes. The portion is relevant to the size of the animal; Chihuahua vs Great Dane. Approximately enough for 4 swallows. Again, if access to a vet is possible then that is the best choice because drinking water does not rehydrate as efficiently as IV fluids that contain the proper balance of electrolytes. For humans, electrolytes are probably fine (remember I'm a vet) but for animals I'd stick to fresh clean plain water. Electrolyte drinks like Pedialyte can spike glucose and without blood work, that may be the wrong thing to introduce, so it's best not to chance it.

We are a couple who when on 3 dates then decided to sail around the world together, so we just film our trip and put it up on youtube, we started in Vancouver BC and sailed up to Alaska, then down to Mexico, then to Panama, we are not great at sailing but we are learning as we go and we make a lot of mistakes, but we are having so much fun so far :-)

[@SeekerKC]

I've heard it said that a person's character can be determined by how they treat those who are dependent upon them. You guys pass with flying colors! It was so nice for the other couple to help out, too! I hope Coconut is hanging in there, & that she finds health & a good home...where ever that might be. No pressure! 😉

[@sailing.supernova]

Thanks heaps for the kind words :-) Coco is already a full member of the crew, We just need to sail back to a vet and get about 50 papers filled out before we can keep going with our trip haha, so worth it though she is so cute and such a fighter. She is still in rough shape as it has only been a week but we are hoping that she keeps eating and putting on some fat, right now she is a bit of a bone rack, the long hair hides it well.

Still, we've had cats for 35 yrs, & if there's any creature who can defy the odds, it's a cat! My thoughts are with her, & I'm just so grateful you all found each other.

As soon as I can I am going to get a boat and sail and live aboard. Your kindness to Coco has made me add worming tablets to my list of things to take. Love your channel. Always looking for new sailing channels and not found a new one I like for ages. Loving yours and gone back to the start. Good to see a fiberglass cat up where there was ice. I have seen so many people want to get metal hulled boats to sail North and then they find the locals sail normal fiberglass boats. :)

[@moffatt43]

Unfortunately Humans can be more dangerous and cruel than nature itself,always disgusts me when Humans are actually given the ability to be able to choose between being kind or cruel and many decide to be cruel and evil. Karma will always be there for them along the way though and every ill deed is counted against them in the end ( when they are on their Deathbed every bad thing they ever did will come back to haunt them ) and that’s why I always try to be as kind and respectful as I possibly can be to fellow humans and animals and even insects !.

It just made me want to be a part of it, and I crave the positive atmosphere you guys put me in. If only the the rest of the world was like this (take note America). I love nature and have always wanted to do things like this, but you guys made me realize you don't need a boat or be halfway across the world to spread kindness and make others happy instead of being a follower and spreading negativity.

This was a great episode. I’m so glad that you rescued this sweet cat. She seems like she’s used to being around people and being on a boat. I love your generosity to the people you met along the way. Your giving makes us feel good. Way to go y’all. Keep it up and be blessed in return.

[@sailing.supernova]

Thanks for the kind words they mean a lot to us :-) We are so lucky to be out here getting a taste of this life, we just want to make sure we do the right thing along the way :-)

[@comfortablynumb9342]

Y'all earned some good karma and got a sweet new mascot. I'd call it a win for you and the new crew member. She'll help keep pests off the boat. She needs to see a vet for anti parasite meds and vaccines. She's worth it, I can't believe someone left such a nice kitty.

[@sailing.supernova]

She is now on the mend, the vet put her on a heap of drugs, she is done most of them now. she still has a bit to go but she is doing great :-) and she loves cuddles so much :-)

What a blessing you are. Your rescue of Coco is just a testament to the beautiful souls you are. In any way that matters i applaud you and i am convinced that should you want to have or adopt children that they will become the salt of the earth…

[@sailing.supernova]

Thanks heaps for the kind words! Coco still has a long way to go but we are both doing everything we can to help her out, she gets food every 3 hours even at night. We are close to finding most of the things wrong with her and we are building a treatment plan with a vet we have been talking to. she just needs to get stronger so she can handle taking the medicine she needs. On the plus side even with how sick she is, she is still full of cuddles :-)

[@sailing.supernova]

Thanks heaps for the kind words. She need help and she would not have made it if we left her. She is still touch and go, but starting to look a bit better. Thanks again for the lovely comment :-)

[@monkeynova2012]

I’m not sure anyone dumped her there. Hell of a mission to go on to dump a cat. We found a cat on an island in a lake once when we were kids. She could’ve been swept out, floated on flotsam, swam (they do swim if they have to) or fell from a passing boat. Either way, bloody sterling job you’re doing with her. She lucked out when you two showed up. My two boys, Basil and Buddy were transfixed by her too!

Im new to you! But as soon as you rescued the cat I was in! I am trying to fill my life with good people, especially good men because as an old woman I find them hard to find. I decided a month ago to start noticing good men and ignoring the A holes. Sort of like when you learn a new word its suddenly everywhere. Manifesting a good planet one good person at a time. Today I found many on your channel. And if no one said anything or you are not aware gone with the Wynns had cats on board for a long time and can probably help answer boating with a cat questions. (Im sure you know but just in case)

[@sailing.supernova]

Thanks heaps for the advice. I was very lucky to find Darcy, as you said good men are hard to find (Darcy is blushing by the way). The wynns have such a good channel! unfortunately we have no way of getting ahold of them. But we are doing all the googling we can about traveling with Coco :-)

[@ColorMeErin]

Thank you so much for Saving Coconut! ❤ You can tell by her Body Language that she's Relieved & that she was on High Alert for so long bc she was all alone, that she can finally Relax & Rest, w/ a Full Belly, bc she feels Safe. But, due to how eager she is to be held & pet is a Sign that she was a Pet, not a Feral Stray Cat. Although, even Stray Cats can be Super Sweet VS Feral, even if they've never been Touched by Humans, Coconut's Mannerisms are those of a Domesticated Cat. If they need Help, they almost always instinctively looked to us for it. Thank you for being that for her & she'll repay it in Love & Loyalty 10 Fold! Pyometra can happen to any Female Animal, usually Dogs/Cats, who weren't Spayed. Since it's been 2 Months since you Posted this Video, I'm hoping Coconut has gotten all sorted out Medically. I'm sure they'll Spay her, which will Remove her Ovaries & Problem Uterus all at 1x. I'll be checking out your Newer Videos to see how your Tiny, New Deck Mate is doing. I wouldn't be Surprised to hear that the Vet DeWormed her, DeFlead, Checked for Mites that typically live in the Sand, gave her all of the necessary Vaccinations (but some are 2 Part Vaccines w/ 1 given & then the 2nd Part is given 1Wk-1Mon later), & if this is a Tropics Region that has Bot Flies, that could've been a concern, as well. Look into the Pet Supplement "Under the Weather". I take Care of a Colony of Homeless Cats & before I could get them all Fixed 6yrs ago, they were still having Kittens, this Supplement came in handy for the Kittens that needed a Little more Help when weening off of their Mom & the Powdered Step 2 Kitten Milk to Wet/Dry Kitten Food. However, this is now a Staple Item in my House, as you can give a Cat a Tiny Amount who looks like they're not getting all of their Nutrients or who might not be eating as much as they should & this perks them right up & Helps keep all of their Vitamins/Minerals Balanced. You could also give Coconut some Kitten Food Mixed in w/ her Cat Food, as it has a Higher Fat, Protein, etc Content that can Help her Fatten up & will do wonders for her Skin & Fur. You should consider making & Sharing an Amazon Wish List for Coconut in the Description of your Videos, that People can Order from for her. I made 1 for my Homeless Cat Colony (There was 13, but now there's only 10... Bc 3 disappeared since November. I'm Heartbroken over them.) that I Listed under my Videos & although nobody has Utilized the List, I at least know it's there & know that if someone Purchases any of the Items on there, that it'll be VERY Helpful. Just an Idea!! 😁 Thank you again for Saving Castaway Coconut & making her a Permanent Member of Team Nova!! ❤🌊🤙🏻☀

[@sailing.supernova]

Thanks so much for everything you are doing for your cats :-) And thanks so much for the advice! We will look at trying to get some "under the weather" on the boat and maybe help out some other cats and dogs we see. Coconut is eating lots and even has a bit of a belly now! Again thanks for being so kind to the animals around you, and keep liking videos about them, one may catch on and get some views, then you may get some help looking after all your sweet kitties.

A little something to help with Coconut’s vet bills. Please keep us posted on her. I’m assuming the former cat people advised you on having a litter box for Coconut?
