Hello my adoring fans. I'm sorry to have been MIA for a while. In the past month, I've been very ill and had some surgery. But don't worry- I'M OKAY NOW! Basically what's been going on is that, due to my beautifully pushed in little nose, I'm prone to conjunctivitis because my eyes and nose can't drain as well. That, added to the fact that I had a dormant strain of Feline Herpes Virus (many cats have it! GET VACCINATED!) that became active when I got a little stressed out at the beginning of July (I don't enjoy fireworks), brought out a nasty little eye infection. The infection led to an ulcer on the eye, and then progressed to a sequestrum (fancy name for a bad spot), and eventually my mom and the vet decided to spare me the stress of more surgery and A LOT of intense meds (7 different drops & gels, 4 times a day, for 2 weeks!), they were going to take the eye out. I've had to wear a ridiculous Elizabethan collar for the past two weeks, but today the stitches are out and I'm back to my old self!! I'm planning to write a nice post about eye health and what your kitties should be looking out for. Until then, I'll be lounging on the top level of my kitty tree, relaxing from this very stressful month!
my new look! once my fluff grows in again i'll be back to being the most beautiful kitty in town!
