      1. Rusty is looking better this morning! I even saw him put some weight on that back leg. We are going to our Vet this morning for one last time. And it WILL be the last time. Thank you from the bottom of my Heart for everything you have done for us! Love and (((HUGS))) Amy

      1. Honey, I’ve been SO hit with this trauma about Rusty, first trying to wrap my brain around the fact that he is extremely hurt, then dealing with a negligent Vet, then around the clock care trying to save not only his leg but his life, then he looked better, then took a turn for the worse with a fever of 105.6 and back we go kicking it in high gear to save his leg because again his paw turned a dark purple. Yes, Morgan, I have been in shock. For real. A few days last week, every time I closed my eyes I went into a panic and had flashbacks. This has been a horrible nightmare, one in which is slowly improving. xx Amy

      2. OH dear Amy I am so sorry, I honestly had no idea. and for THAT I am sorry, because I do confess that I am doing so much and going in so many (too many) directions that I don’t get to spend the quality time I’d like to in any one place. So its my own fault I didn’t know, but still, I am sorry and shall include all of you in my most fervent prayers.

        I do not know the entire situation, but I did have a cat once who got stuck in a trap and we had to amputate that leg. after the horror of it, and the sorrow, we realized that he got along just fine on three and barely missed a beat. I dont know what is best for Rusty, just saying, perhaps…if it’s necessary …if his health would improve …he will be fine. course like I said, I dont know all the details. either way…my prayers hover o’er you all 😉

      3. Bless you, Morgirl! Bless you! Please do not blame yourself, OK? I too don’t have the quality time to be everywhere I want to be. Rusty is looking really really good this evening. I worked with him all day long, soaking, and doing a sort of debridement on his paw. All toes are pink now, where they had been a dusky color. Hubs and I both are working SO hard to save his leg, and believe in the power of prayer and LOVE. We’ve come a long way since last week, and I really have HOPE now that he will pull through. I have just dropped to my knees in utter gratitude about this. I had to get out of the house for a while this evening, and went to a creek not far from our home to photograph waterfalls AND I got a whole lot of magic! I even got a BLUE HERON fishing! WOWOWOWOW! This incident was WAY too close and there were times I did loose faith. I am so grateful to you for your prayers. Thank you from the bottom of my Heart. (((HUGS))) Amy

    1. Thank you, Neha. We have had a bit of a setback so again we put it in high gear and treat him aggressively. He has a raging fever and the color/swelling on his paw looks awful. Thank GOD his paw is warm. I am only on here minimally, so forgive me if I don’t get over to see you too much. Love, Amy

    1. Thank you, Denise. I really hope Simon is OK. Rusty’s temp is soaring again and his paw is so swollen and really doesn’t look good. We are continuing the good fight! I will NOT give up, and God help me, I will save his paw!!! I read this post over and over and over again all weekend long. Bless you and know you are in MY prayers! Love, Amy

      1. Wish I was there to help you with him Amy. If he were a dog I would soak his paw in very warm iodine and water, but can’t use iodine with cats. My vet did use it lightly on a wound once though. One of my books suggests bathing cats wounds in rosemary infusion. Email me if you like and I will send it on. Simon is doing a little better today, however he now has an issue with his liver. We are hoping it will clear up on its own as not much to do for it. Sending you all many prayers and angels for healing. Precious babies they are! Love and hugs your way!

      2. Denise, I am doing a triple soak with Rusty and it is working. Very warm soapy water, then very warm epson salts water, then very warm rinse water. I am doing this every 2-3 hours with gentle massaging of the paw to encourage the dead skin to slough off. His skin is still pink and the darkened areas are beginning to slough off. He still is not putting weight on his paw, so again we turn to Homeopathy looking for a new remedy to encourage the swelling to go down. I also am giving him water water water, as I do not want to bolus him (needle) as he is very squirmy today. Yes I am using allopathic meds as well as alternative. I am so touched by your concern and I really hope Simon gets better. The heartache and the horror involved when one of our 4-legged Angels is ill or hurt, I cannot put into words, yet you know. BIG (((HUGS))) Amy

    1. That in a nutshell, John, is why I have my head in flowers so much. Mother Nature too. If I keep my gaze to this world, I don’t think I would be able to walk in Peace and with Strength as I do today. My words have gotten stronger, to which I am no longer hiding. People don’t like it, there is always the next blog. I do speak Truth and I do stand on Love. Like you. Thank you so much for being in my Life and commenting. It means a lot to me, John.

      1. It’s a slow go, John, and if we had only relied on traditional medicine, he would have lost his leg. Since yesterday, I can see the healing process has really begun. I have to keep up with paw soaks, and keep this little guy hydrated and pain free, as well as keeping the good nutrition coming by feeding him. I woke this morning with the sweat just pouring off of me, in sheer terror. This was too close. I get down on my knees in utter gratitude, for the knowledge my husband and I have achieved through hard and deligent study over the years, is paying off. Medicine is so limited and in so many ways. I hope I am teaching my Vet something that when certain remedies and treatments are consistenty done, the drastic quick fix (amputation) can be avoided. I believe in natural, gentle healing and that is exactly what this cat is getting. What a journey! Thank you for your concern. (((HUGS))) Amy

      2. I use a lot of herbal cures. My Grandmother was Ojibwa and she used the natural cures. The garlic, rosemary and honey/vinegar can fix the human body.

        Personally I believe that We are “Soul Sister’s” and You are capturing what I can’t at this time. I saw so much energy it took my breath away in this, and your post “The Twilight Zone.” Absolutely Breathtaking! How’s Rusty doing? Have You taken any photo’s of him lately? I would love to see what is around him.
        Much Love, My Dear Friend,

I am still so busy with his treatements and in fact, heading right now to do another paw soaking. This is why I have comments closed. I cannot be here and be for Rusty at the same time. I LOVE the Twilight Zone too! It is PURE Magic!!! (((HUGS))) Amy
