Update on the Cat

Hello again, I want to apologize for my depressing post yesterday. I probably should've waited until I was more clam, cool and collected. It's never wise to write when you have something fresh weighing on your shoulders.

Talk about crazy....

Yeah, yeah I'd say I seemed a little bit crazy at that point in time but hey a little crazy never hurt anyone. Besides, we all know that normal is highly over-rated... I am right!? Anyway, so my cat Sierra is doing much better than she was yesterday. She is still expelling excess blood from her uterus but she has an excellent appetite, she is drinking well and she is acting like a normal, happy cat. I think there was a part of me deep down inside that knew her kittens probably weren't going to survive long. The beginning portion of her pregnancy (a crucial part in any mother's time of pregnancy), Sierra was outside, had worms, she was emaciated and had no warm home. She hardly had any nutrients to care for herself let alone her 4-6 kittens. It's just so hard when you know that those kittens never got a chance to live their life.

But on the bright side, last night at 9:00PM Sierra had a beautiful little kitten who is the only survivor out of 5 others. She is a little calico with beautiful light coloring, she survived the night and and ate well this morning, she is also moving a lot more now. So, I'm hoping that she is going to live and be a healthy baby. The most crucial moment is right after the baby is born and drinks their mother's milk, besides the crying of course. We'll be keeping a close eye on her, especially the first week and see how she does.

Anyway, so it's been a real roller coaster of emotions these past couple of days and I'm happy to say that despite all the sadness...I haven't binged at all. I'm quite proud of myself for being able to handle my emotions in a more efficient and healthy manner.

I will be keeping all of you posted on the status of the baby kitten and will post pictures of her soon. Please keep this precious little soul in your thoughts and send her your love, she fought for her life now let's give her all the love and strength we can muster up to help her keep up that fight.
