Tia Dalma's kitten - Merry Five Angels

And this evil Feline Leukemia is hitting Merry the past few days in a way. With a weaken immune system these kitties are susceptible to secondary infections. Merry has one we're treating - inflamed salivary glands. They are so swollen you can see the ducts. Our Vet, bless her, tries so hard. Merry had to be bumped up to Baytril injections as the Clavamox made him so sick. We're doing fluids too. Today he did want food, so we didn't have to syringe feed him.

He's such a joy and every day is a blessing with him, we just want him to feel good again.

Is that really Merry?! I can't believe how big the (not so little anymore) guy is getting! Sorry to hear that he's getting sick. That makes my heart ache! If there's anything we can do to help, please let me know!

I couldn't even imagine it if Tom Bell was dealing with a illness like this. You both are truly a blessing for these kitties! And that's why God placed them all in your care. He knew they would get the VERY BEST care! Love you guys and hope to see y'all soon!

It's been crazy for the Blackwell's! But always remember, you are always on our hearts, minds and prayers!

Love ya and God Bless! Blessings and Love!
