Help! Healthy Himalayan In Danger Of Euthanasia In Quebec

[Mamanyt1953]

I have to wonder if anyone has played with Chanelle since she outgrew her kitten stage? She just seems so...happy...to have a toy, and someone paying attention to her. This cat breaks my heart. We have the Temporary Happy Ending, now we just need the perfect Forever Home for her.

She's a sweet, beautiful cat. I can't imagine someone not wanting her.

Hi everyone, I spoke to sjpennytoum recently and I am glad to say for the most part Chanelle has a clean bill of health! The one problem the vet noticed was slight dehydration. Considering Chanelle has been eating dry food her whole life, this is no surprise. sjpennytoum bought a few cans of specialized wet food that should help with the dehydration.

Here are some pics I was asked to provide proof of the vet visit

It’s sickening to think that Chanelle might not even be alive right now if it were not for each and every one of us...

I hope in the near future we can create more happy memories as a community such as the story of Chanelle.

Allright! A vet check up and some wet food. That's what it's about!

Do all Canadian shop receipts for pets carry the pet's name?

I think that's the receipt from the vet check, isn't it?

Glad to hear Chanelle doesn't have any serious health problems.

Yes, you're right, it reads the owner's name too.

 

[FelisCatus]

Yes, you're right, it reads the owner's name too.

Yep, both receipts are from the vet clinic. sjpennytoum bought a few cans of specialized canned food directly from the vet in the hopes that it helps.

However, there are stores here that collect pet names if you sign up for memberships. At PetSmart they even give you a little gift on your pets birthday.

Hey again everyone! As FelisCatus said, Chanelle is looking good. Another thing is that she hadn't received any vaccinations at all since 2012, when she was a kitten, so we got her her shots. She'll need a booster in a month. Once she's all up to date, I'll work on finding her a forever home!

For the most part, she uses her litter box just fine, but I have indeed found two poops just outside of it. I'm going to try using a 'lightweight' litter to see if it's easier for her to use, considering she's declawed.

PLUS! Another short video, featuring my two cats:

Just a thought from someone with a fluffy cat, but is it a full poop outside of the litter box? Or is it possible some is getting stuck in her fur and dropping off? With my girl we sometimes have to trim the fur at the back of her legs.

Yep, full poop unfortunately. She will definitely need a butt trim too, though

I wonder if you should mix a little bit of that cat attract litter into the lightweight litter if lightweight doesn't work by itself.

 

[Mamanyt1953]

You might try a corn-based litter. They tend to be very fine, soft, and low-dust.

And she's VERY clever with her paws, isn't she?

 

[Kflowers]

wheat is a nice soft litter.

 

[sjpennytoum]

Nice, thanks for the recommendations!

 

[kittyluv387]

sjpennytoum How is she doing lately? Any improvement on the litterbox?

 

[mazie]

Yes, how is she doing? Have you found a soft litter she likes from the great suggestions above?

 

[sjpennytoum]

Hey everyone! Sorry about the lack of updates, I took on a couple of extra work projects and have been quite busy

Chanelle is doing great overall. I deep-cleaned her litter box, and I add a good amount of baking soda every time I clean it. We've had a couple of accidents but overall she uses the box no problem. She really hates getting her butt trimmed, though! I'm going to have to get an extra pair of hands for that!

She and Penny are getting along very well. They've gone right up to each other for a good sniff, and I'm trying to get them to play together. My Toum is the queen of the castle and isn't exactly friendly with Chanelle, but she doesn't give any warning hisses anymore. She basically shrugs and walks away

Chanelle has a booster shot in a couple of weeks. Once she's all up to date, I'm going to start actively looking for her forever home. Three full-time cats are a bit too much for me and my apartment! My vet gave me the names of a few local organizations that could help. The Reddit user who initially found her might still be interested, too.

I'll try to take another video this week

That's great news. Thank you so much for taking care of her.
