May 16th: Meanwile, the kittens at almost 2 months old are loving life in the garden now. Running and jumping and playing and wrestling.

That’s Frankie on the right! Frankie is being the best uncle for the little ones. He frets and has to know where each one is at all times and doesn’t stay still rounding them up like a sheepdog.

Btw, momma cat was fixed Monday last week!

May 2nd: I just spoke to the vet and she said Pirata is eating and being more active but the skin has turned black in 2 spots where she was bitten because of necrosis from the venom. So she can come home later today and will need antibiotics and cream so that hopefully new healthy skin will grow underneath the dead areas.

Pirata at the vets. That must have been a big snake!

April 29th: Took Pirata to the vets as she was bleeding from her paw. It turns our my Princess was bitten by a snake!!! She has to stay at the vets and they will treat her, but not sure what will happen. But they said if the snake was very poisonous, like a viper, she’d probably be dead already.

April 28th: Pirata just returned from playtime in the garden and hills with a swollen left paw and leg. I’m hoping it’s just a bee sting or something. She’s hiding now in the cupboard and won’t let me near her to check. I hope it’s not a snake bite or a bone fracture.

April 24th: Update on Gerry: Went to the vet yesterday and they said it’s still bad. Scar tissue around the injured cornea. Gotta bring him to a specialist vet on Saturday hopefully. And his cone has to stay on for a month!!!!

He still wants to play and eat and eat and steal food from everyone, but it’s obvious his eye is not good. He keeps it closed lots of the time.

Still got him on antibiotics and painkillers and steroid eye drops. Poor oy, I have to keep him inside when his 4 sisters go out to play twice a day. He complains a lot. I do bring him out for little walkabouts and stay beside him though but he’s used to having 2-3 hours free roam outside in the hills each day. Vet said not allowed!

My poor boy :( I observe them all a lot everyday and am sure his eye wasn’t that bad 1.5 days ago.

April 20: More bad news: My boy Gerry had a thing with his eye a few weeks ago where he kept closing it. I kept watching him and it wasn’t that bad. He just closed it randomly, but then after a week, when some of the kittens got eye infections, I got liquid low dose antibiotics from the vet and gave some to his eye too. Then a few days ago I noticed him rubbing it, and then this morning he went alone with the eye closed under the sofa and didn’t want to eat, which is extraordinary for hungry Gerry. I put him separate from the others when I went to work as I could tell he wanted to be alone. When I came home his eye was worse. Brought him to the vet straightaway and when he opened his eye it was bright green. The vet said an infection has destroyed his cornea. She said it could have something to do with his FIP. She said it’s unlikely he will regain sight in that eye. Now he has the cone to stop scratching it and is on painkillers and antibiotics and eye drops.
