High Five For Friday

I haven't wrote a blog post in a few days because I've had a lot going on.  This week has been a pretty horrible one.  The itty bitty kitty I rescued from the side of the road a couple of weeks ago is very sick.  We almost lost him Wednesday night.  I had to rush him to the local Emergency Vet Clinic to save his life.  His blood sugar had dropped to 10.  He stopped breathing on the vet 3 times.  They gave him glucose and that stabilized him.  I took him home and was up with him all night giving him sugar water and Karo syrup to keep his sugar up since he wouldn't eat.  Thursday morning I took him to a vet and they told me there was nothing they could do and to just make him comfortable.

Well not my little fellow.  He is a fighter and as long as he is fighting so am I.  I took him to another vet, Indian Ridge Pet Hospital.  They were wonderful.  This vet actually cares.  He gave me some antibiotics for him and some high calorie paste to squirt in his mouth since he still isn't eating. 

My little kitty is doing some better but he still isn't out of the woods.  I've been praying so much for my little fur baby.  For him being so tiny he has the heart of a lion.  I had 2 vets tell me that he wasn't going to make it but with God it's never hopeless and that's why my little fur baby is still here.  I will try to keep the blog updated with how little Shadow is doing.

Here is my High Five for Friday.

1.  I  found an awesome vet that actually cares.  The majority of the vets I called in my area just care about money.  If you can't pay for everything up front then they won't help you.  That is very sad.  You would think they became vets to help animals and if they could save a life why wouldn't they?  If I was a vet, I would because every life is precious.  So I'm very glad I found a really good one.

2.  My manager got the whole team lunch today.  We went to a local pizza place and I got a mushroom and cheese calzone.  That thing was huge!  I should have taken a picture of it before I devoured it.  I have an awesome manager.  It makes a big difference when you have a great boss.

3.  My parents got a puppy.  Her name is Waggles.  She is part Yorkie and part Shih Tzu.  She is adorable!

Sorry the picture is blurry I had to snap the picture in a hurry because she doesn't sit still for long


4.  I found a Bare Minerals holiday kit that has a blush, lip gloss, eyeliner, eye shadow, and I'm thinking there was something else in there.  Anyway I'm going to order it and probably do a blog post about it.

5.  My sister from another mister is coming over tomorrow and we are going to make some jewelry.  We decided we are going to open our own shop and sell jewelry.  I'll try to do a blog post tomorrow and show some of our pieces.



Until next time!
