Guest guest Posted June 2, 2008 Report Share Posted June 2, 2008 We are so fortunate that we have access to those kinds of specialty products today. Back " in the day " , years ago, when I did my rabbit rescue, nothing like that was even on the market. The pet food industry has made major strides in trying to save orphaned or abandoned babies. We had to just make do back then......I am so glad we can now just go to a Wal-Mart, that is open 24 hours a day, and grab a can to save these precious babies. AND, we used to have to use actual glass doll bottles or eye droppers.....they didn't have the neat tiny baby animal size bottles that you can get now. We used to have a black and white cat named Patches....she was so sweet and one of her favorite hang outs, when I let her out, was to go up on the roof of our house and lay on the chimney, which had a fairly close weaved grate on it, and survey her domain....I have pictures of her......she was a really smart cat too....that was about 22 years ago.

Guest guest Posted June 2, 2008 Report Share Posted June 2, 2008 My Patches was fourteen and half years old when he died. He had diabetes and a pancreatic tumor. He went into seizures because of and died from strokes on the last day of September. He was with me from when he four weeks old and his mother wouldn't care for him. He helped me get through the recouperation period after my ovearian cancer surgery, he was very special. He never went outside, unless I took him out in his carrier because my home is across from a busy shopping center on one of the main streets in our city. He was half what is called a cabbit(half rabbit and half cat). The product came out when he was about seven years old, up until then he couldn't have milk because his stomach couldn't tolerate it. He was also allergic to the beef n cat food. But he went wild over the vegetables I cooked. His favorite was celery, it made him act like he'd been into the catnip. I guess he was meant to be vegetarian too. booliterary21 > We used to have a black and white cat named Patches....she was so sweet and one > of her favorite hang outs, when I let her out, was to go up on the roof of our house and lay on the chimney, which > had a fairly close weaved grate on it, and survey her domain....I have pictures of her......she was a really smart cat too....that was about 22 years ago. > Nancy C. > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
