This little smitten is doing well and so is my Mama! She had to be transferred to the hospital &was treated for anemia &kidney stones. But she’s returned home &is doing beautifully. Thank you everyone for your kindness and thank you for donating! www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/...
This little sweetness toddled up with his mama a day or so after John passed. His eyes were crusted shut. He looks so good now after weeks of tending, but since he can see me he knows I’m coming for him and he runs😹. Obviously that is not a deterrent. #rescuecats #BeAGoodHuman
Alberta says Happy Fourth to all the kitties and their people. Also, thank you to everyone who’s sent food &wellwishes&positivity&encouragement during this time. Hug your babies and your loved ones for me. -Jan #rescuecats #BeAGoodHuman link to the wishlist is pinned.
Rosie sitting in her Daddy’s lap the way she always loved. Mama is progressing V. slowly. It’s going 2take a couple months of PT&OT but there is light. We are grateful. The herd is fine though I am unable to spend the time w/them these days that I deeply desire. My love to you all. -Jan #rescuecats
It’s been a month. A terrible and exhausting month. Thank you to everyone who has reached out and who misses him as well. I hope that you’re all well. -Jan
Things with Mama went from bad to okay to bad again to better. Still in the hospital for a while longer. Still monitoring. Tentatively hopeful. Just a very difficult healing journey ahead of her. Gigi says hey &she’s ready for this shit to be over. Me effin’ too, my girl. -Jan #rescuecats
In the mean while: Brommy wanted everyone to know that he and his gang of fellow criminals are all doing well. They just really miss their Daddy hardcore. -Jan #rescuecats #BeAGoodHuman
Every day brings its own set of triumphs &despair. Mama Cat Elliot helps. They all do, of course. But I am stricken by the quiet that I once craved &am forcing myself to exist within it. This is who we are now. Living on without him. Carrying him inside for the next leg of the journey. #fuckcancer
Rose-Rose says thank you to the generous soul who sent us this recent @Chewy order. Purrs and headbutts and general curiosity for days and for all. -Jan and the flock of felines #rescuecats #fuckcancer #BeAGoodHuman
I got John’s ashes back yesterday &also the clothes he was wearing when he passed. Specifically his old #dartball jacket. It’s been 2 weeks. It feels like 2 hrs. It feels like forever. I talk of him constantly. I wonder what smart&funny thing he’d have to say about all of this. #rescuecats
Lasers and treats and a visit from Granny. Thank you to everyone for all of your support and kindness as I fumble and flail my way across the social medias. Just another area where John excelled. Love, Jan #rescuecats #BeAGoodHuman #fuckcancer
Mama visiting with the babies earlier this evening. Such elation in the midst of such despair.
Tybie was John's constant bed companion-or Hematoma as he referred to him. A sweet, chirpy good buddy for my kind and loyal Cat Daddy. This is just me reaching out at the end of another long day without him to say thank you to everyone for the love and generosity and support. -jan
Hi all- Jan here. Alberta & Zelda &I want you to know that John is very unwell &out of commision w/a severe UTI: extreme lethargy &confusion. Plz keep him in your thoughts & plz donate to our Amazon wishlist if you're able &compelled. Thank you &We appreciate everyone & everything. #BeAGoodHuman
Nothing says fuck cancer more than a Rib Eye Steak 🥩 after having a really encouraging echocardiogram and paracentesis. Today was that day. #fuckancer🥩😋
The report from my MRI looks a little troubling. It's possible my cancer has returned. If you can spare some prayers, please do my friend. #fuckcancer 🙏🙏🙏🙏
I just left the hospital and they drained 10.2 liters of fluid from my abdomen. #fuckcancer That's a LOT of fluid😳
It's a snowy NC #caturday and Brommy is enjoying the warmth and safety indoors. ☃️🌨️🥰☮️🐈👍
A good meal without a good nap afterward is incomplete. #confucius 🐈🐈🐈🐈😴
Waiting the outside group to show up to eat. They always do. 😋🐈⬛🐈🐈⬛🐈🐈
Some video clips of suppertime tonight. Hopefully the volume works 🐈🐈⬛
