The reason why I haven't been on..As you know, I had to get Maiah and her eye surgery completed, and that cost a lot of money so I had to sell my computer. Well, I got it back lol (Grandparent's spoil me) Well, something else had just happened, and it made me so mad that well, I might not use to nice of words. Some a hole left out anti-freeze and Socks, being the little rascal he is, got a hold of it. We did find out who the a holes were and it was construction workers that left the bottles just laying out so we did file a complaint and we will be taking them to court (It's illegal to leave it out) and there were bottles littered around the area. Also, they will pay half of the bills to get Socks better. It was 1:00 in the morning when I saw Socks stumbling around and I rushed him to Murfespuro (which is 30 minuets away from where I live) but I got there in 10 minuets (Whoo for breaking speed limits!) and yes I did get pulled over, but the cop let me go and escorted me (He was a cat lover XP ) So, I got there and they rushed him in with my jacket so he could sleep on it, and they told us it was antifreeze. On the good news, they let me spend the night there with him, and they did a test to check on his kidneys. His heart was doing absolutly great, and they said he was the healthiest cat they've ever seen (besides the whole anti-freeze stuff) his kidneys and his liver were great, but they're afraid he might have a little brain damage due to the fact he stopped breathing on them a few times. It's been 1 day and 14 hours now and he's eating soft foods (He's a pig so of course he'll eat) and he's playing with his IV cords. So, the vet told us he has a 70% chance of living due to his fast recovery, but will keep him 2 more days just to make sure. The recovery will cost 700 dollars+ so I plan to sell all my games, stuff I don't need, and get a refund on my plane ticket to see kyle (Which he understands) but he is doing fine now and I'm praying it stays that way. Sorry again for not being very active. It's been crazy down here. We just lost both guinea pigs to a common cold they had.

Oh Socks, how terrible! Antifreeze can be a real killer; so glad the kidneys and liver haven't been too damaged! I'm praying that there's no brain damage; please do keep us posted on his progress! And how did Maiah's eye surgery go? No wonder you haven't been on lately with everything going on...(((hugs))) and take care of yourself..... |

Socks, I'm so shocked to read your account of what's been happening. Poor you, poor Socks and poor Kyle also - being far away and not being able to help out! I hope with all my heart Socks pulls through and makes a full recovery. I think you should sue these cretins for every last penny AND then the stress and worry factor.  |

That's awful Socks! I hope Socks makes a full recovery and there is no brain damage ........ I agree with the others that those construction men should pay for all his treatment, they should have known how dangerous it is to leave anti-freeze lying around.How did Maiah's eye surgery go, was it successful? Glad to see you back, take care...  |
