Paloma Faith from Stray No More in Van Nuys, California
Click here for more information about adoption and other ways to help!
Click here for a link to Stray No More’s main website.
Meet Paloma Faith: This medium haired, poofy tailed, green eyed beauty has had a tough set of cards stacked against her in her 3 years of life. Despite that she wowed her rescuers with her incredible demeanor. Paloma Faith desperately wants to love someone and have them be her world, she is the most fantastic little buddy and what we would refer to as a soul kitty because she will absolutely capture yours and share hers devotedly for the rest of her life. She follows her rescuer around the house, loves to sit on laps and be anywhere YOU are. Paloma Faith suffered a debilitating fracture to the base of her spine likely caused by something grabbing her by the tail which she suffered before or after being left in a park to fend for herself. Paloma does require someone special who understands the issues she does still face - due to her spinal injury she has nerve damage and lost the feeling in her lower region resulting in some incontinence/elimination issues. She does use the litter box but isn't always aware if she's finished the task and as a result can be a little leaky or not know she's pooping. This is easily resolved with a diaper, patience, and empathy (possibly a sanitary shave for daintiness if you are inclined). We see hope for her future and have noticed some tail movement which is very encouraging - these things take time! Every time it lifts a little higher we can't help being so proud of her progress. We also continue to treat her and closely follow her progress with our vet. If you are the special person who can resonate with her healing process, we would love to hear from you.

In Baltimore City, MD: Handsome, sweet, and trusting Husky brought to BARCS after being reportedly stabbed - BARCS, Baltimore MD
If you would like to foster Deacon and help save him, we can contact local rescues to ask for help, please email [email protected]
- Rescue Needed -
Deacon- 2 years, unaltered male, 44lbs
Handsome Deacon was picked up by Animal Control and brought to our shelter after reportedly being stabbed more than once. One in our care, our vets noted his left side was soaked in blood and there were at least two recent puncture wounds on his shoulder. Deacon was unable to use this leg fully and he was also somewhat shocky.
After initial examination, Deacon was immediately transferred to surgery for further evaluation and repair of the wounds. X-rays also showed no obvious pneumothorax, but a fracture without displacement of the spine of the left scapula. These images were sent to a partnering hospital for consult, and for now, Deacon is being treated with antibiotics, pain meds, warm compress, and rest. His drains are scheduled to be removed 3 days post-op, and his sutures in 12-14 days.
We'll never know why what happened to Deacon happened to him, but all we can be is grateful that he ended up safe in our care after everything. And despite what he went through, and the fear and pain he must have suffered, Deacon has been incredibly sweet, trusting, and cooperative so far in our care.
Deacon will be available for rescue pick-up after 4/5.
Please let us know if your organization can help!
Thank you,
The BARCS Rescue Team

My dad just brought my cat back from the vet and it turns out our dogs caused him to fracture his spine. As long as he doesn't jump, he'll be fine. And no, we're not going to discipline the dogs. It was an accident, they were just playing.

How Often Can I Give A Bath To My Pet?
Have you got a furry friend at your house? If yes, this might be the best experience that you have. Feeding them, playing with them, and spending time with them can take away all the worries at once. Also, shopping from an online pet store for them is fun.
But do you know the biggest challenge you can face with your pets? It’s bath time. Many pets do not like bath time and would like to avoid it as much as possible. Additionally, it is important to know how often you can bath your pet.
So, let us explore more about the same.
All About Bathing Your Pet
Well, you can have a variety of pets that include dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, and others. Though all of them are amazing, taking care of them varies greatly. The right frequency of bathing your pets is given below:
Bathing the dog
Bathing the dog depends on many variables like the health of the dog, his coat, fur length, breed, and lifestyle. You should bath a healthy pup once a month with warm water and dog shampoo. You should bath a puppy once they are 8 weeks old. Dogs with long fur can be given baths once a week, depending on the vet’s advice.
Bathing the cat
A cat should be bath based on its age, comfort, and need. As per general rule, cats should be bath once every 4-6 weeks. Since cats groom themselves quite often, this frequency is great for them and their well-being. Bathing a cat is not easy, and you need to use toys for cats to lure them to the bathtub.
Bathing the rabbit
Rabbits are meticulous cleaners and will spend most of their time cleaning themselves. Rabbits also flail around in the water and can easily fracture their spine or limb if they panic. Furthermore, when wet rabbit hair clumps together, completely drying them is a difficult chore. Spot bathing is a great way to keep your rabbit clean. But if needed, you may connect with the pet grooming center to groom your rabbit.
Bathing the birds
Daily bathing for birds is recommended. The bird determines whether or not to bathe every day. Many birds love bathing daily, while others prefer to bathe only on rare occasions. Bathing is beneficial to birds’ feathers and skin. For bathing the bird, you need to supply the lukewarm water only, and the rest of the splashing will be done by them. One should allow the birds to bath on their own as it can harm their feathers or lead to shedding.
Knowing the right way to bath your pets will ensure that they stay clean and happy. Additionally, since every pet has different needs, fulfilling them accordingly is crucial to make them have a great life.
Conclusion Taking care of pets is very important to help them lead happy and healthy life. To ensure their well-being, you should know about the right way to feed, clean, and care for them while bathing your pet. One must know how and when to bath your pet. The best thing is to connect with the best pet store specializing in grooming services like Glenand Group, to ensure your pet has the best service ever. Get your fur buddy the best service ever

I've never been so down in my entire life. I truly don't know what to do. My cat had bone surgery due to a fracture in his right femur. Now 4 weeks after the surgery he is doing worse - he got x rays again today and now it turns out he has a fracture in his left femur and a spine problem. I'm crying just writing this. I can't make out what I'm feeling but it's just anger , sadness and frustration. Im angry bc I could barely afford the surgery which I thought would help him and now he's doing worse and I feel guilty and I wish I never had even done the surgery. Im angry bc I don't know if it's the Vet's fault or if it's what the vet thinks is a bone disease. I don't know. But I'm tired of seeing him like this it's not fair. He just turned 1 and he's gone through so much. He was in such terrible condition when I found him as a kitten. Now he's in pain again and I feel so awful. I just want him to be ok.

Swelling Of Joints In Pets | Osteoarthritis Symptoms & Treatment
Osteoarthritis in dogs is a prevalent issue in dogs, particularly in older and heavier breeds. Early detection of the disease and prompt implementation of suitable management can enable the dog to live a full and active life. Alternative approaches, such as homeopathy therapy, are offering the best results because there is no cure for this degenerative ailment through traditional treatment. Osteoarthritis, commonly known as Degenerative Joint Disease, is a degenerative joint inflammation caused by cartilage degeneration. Osteoarthritis in dogs can affect any joint in the body, but it is most common in the limbs and lower spine. Cartilage acts as a cushion in healthy joints, allowing them to move smoothly through their complete range of motion.
Tumblr media
Osteoarthritis can affect any breed of dog, especially as they get older. However, some circumstances, such as ligament fractures or rips caused by repetitive stress from athletic activities in large or giant breeds such as German Shepherds, Labrador Retrievers, and Golden Retrievers, can predispose a dog to this illness. Obesity, age, particularly in middle-aged to elderly dogs, diseases that affect the joints, such as Lyme's disease, inappropriate diet, poor conformation, genetic factors, and so on could all be contributing causes.
Inflammation of joints, lameness, shifting pain owing to the swelling of joints (LYME DISEASE) linked with fever and anorexia, inflamed eyes for any reason, or pain in the joints as in the case of arthritis can all be treated with INFLASULE for pets.
INFLASULE, like homeopathic treatments, works on the premise of "similia similibuscuranter," which means "like cures like." As a result, formulations that mimic the symptoms of a diseased animal in a healthy animal are employed to create this miracle medication recipe to treat inflammation of joints caused by a variety of factors. It's a recipe created by a well-known Indian veterinarian after speaking with numerous homeopaths and undertaking extensive field testing over time.
Goel Vet Pharma is a Chittorgarh-based approach to homeopathic solutions for veterinary problems. Goel Vet Pharma Private Limited provides homeopathic solutions to the various sicknesses and conditions for cattle, sheep, goats, dogs, and cats. With more than 10,000 professionals in the team of Goel Vet team, the company prescribes its products to over 10 lakh animals and treats various diseases with their Homeopathic Veterinary medicines in Cows, Buffalo, and pet animals. They are also known for introducing homeopathic supplements for pets for pet parents who are concerned about the weak condition of their pets. Goel Vet Pharma is available online and also has a Goel Vet Pharma application on Playstore. Goel Pharma is ISO 9001-2008 certified, FDA approved and certified in production, consultation, and distribution in the arena of Homeopathic Veterinary Medicine all over India. Goel Vet Pharma company is set up by Dr. R K Goel who was a scholar and pioneer in homeopathic services for animals. He had come up with various formulations for diseases like mastitis, FMD, HS, meningitis, etc with high success rates during his 33-year long service. He has compiled all his work to form the Goel Vet Pharma for dedication to building a strong homeopathic reign in the veterinary sector.

If I say this once, I'll say it a thousand times: rabbits are not easy pets and should not be a child's responsibility!
Do you know what I saw today? A juvenile Holland Lop with a fractured spine because the child was 'playing' with it and dropped it out a window (who came in a tiny cage that was totally inappropriate). The parents asked me to say it wasn't the kid's fault, who was crying in the exam room.
I instead told them humane euthanasia was the best choice since being dropped out the window caused a fractured spine. The rabbit would not be able to walk, obtain food, urinate, defecate, or ingest cecotrophs appropriately.
That kid really started wailing and the parents looked at me like I was rude. I got scowled at.
Maybe it seemed rude, but I'm not going to say everything is alright when your bad parenting and lack of supervision led to the untimely demise of a living, feeling creature.
Why?
Because I don't want to let them to think it wasn't their fault, to cave and get their child a replacement just so the next pet could suffer too. My job is to advocate for the animal and improve the care we provide to them.
Just because they are 'cheap' pets, doesn't mean they're easy to keep, appropriate for children, or should be treated as replaceable. Children can do harm without meaning to and another animal's life should never be the responsibility of a child. Children can't even take care of themselves yet and shouldn't be expected to make logical decisions for the safety of another. It's the parent's job to research what the animal needs and oversee all interactions your child has with the pet.
All it takes is one dog pushed too far, one rabbit mishandled, one cat let outside, one bird squeezed too tight, one reptile mishandled to result in harm of an animal and/or the child.

Sometimes terrible things happen in our clinics that no one can prevent or change. Those cases hurt the worst. Our beloved clinic cat, Fennwick, was attacked by a new dog in our lobby last week. He was grabbed off of our reception counter by his head. You can see the fracture to his C1 on the left side. He was laterally recumbent and though he was aware of us, it became apparent after a few days that he was not going to recover. We elected to euthanize him to end his suffering. He was a greeter, and a socializer, and a comfort to many who came through our doors. His love for all treats and his aggressive tactics to get you to oblige brought smiles to everyone's face. His chirp for a meow is something I will never forget. This is so important always. Keep your dogs restrained when you come to any clinic. Especially when the dog is new to you and new to the clinic. Keep your dog kenneled, leashed, and under your watch at all times. We might still have our big cat otherwise.😭

Isaac, new betas, growing pains, and a supernatural hit list complete with professional killers Clearly canon divergent s4 AU. Allisaac, because duh. I am convinced that Liam and Isaac would not like each other, at least at face value. for Alyssa, like always @electricbluebutterflies
“I don’t like him,” Isaac grumbles into her bare chest, head pushed up between her boobs. Allison cards her fingers through his hair and works through another math problem, trying not to laugh.
“I know,” she says, and Isaac makes an angry cat noise.
“I’m serious,” he whines, “he was already too good at lacrosse and now he’s a werewolf. We didn’t need another beta.”
“Was Scott supposed to let him fall off the roof, then?” Allison asks him, erasing a step and reworking it with the right method. Her phone buzzes with a text from Lydia, saying she’s coming over. Allison sends her a picture of Isaac’s curly head nestled between the soft cups of her bra and a grumpy faced emoji. Lydia texts back that she’ll bring snacks. Isaac makes another subvocal sound of displeasure.
“Yes,” he says, no real heat in his voice. He doesn’t mean it, he’s not that heartless, he’s just feeling territorial. Scott is his alpha and his brother, and Isaac was used to being the only wolf beta. He and Malia get along like a house on fire (which gives Allison a migraine, sometimes) and she knows he’s secretly anxious that a new pack member is going to upset the balance.
“Lydia is coming over,” Allison tells him, pushing at the side of his head until he lifts it, “which means I have to put on a shirt, and you should probably at least have on a pair of boxers.”
“Mmm,” Isaac grunts, biting at her belly and grinning when her muscles contract, “are you sure?”
“You’re fucking incorrigible,” Allison tells him, flicking the tip of his nose gently, “now get dressed.”
Liam is very aware Isaac doesn’t like him, because Isaac isn’t exactly a master of subtlety. Allison thinks Liam is more than a little scared of him too, because Isaac is definitely more lupine than Scott and less clueless than Malia. It does have some benefits from what Allison can tell from up in the bleachers at the scrimmage, though, when Isaac grabs him by the collar of his jersey and tosses him into the dirt before he can rip one of Devenford Prep’s midfielders a new asshole. She watches as he struggles against Isaac’s grip, looking for all the world like a very angry puppy, but Isaac is taller and stronger and much, much better at being a werewolf than Liam is.
Allison gathers her purse and picks her way down the bleachers, Lydia and Malia on her heels. They shove their way into a spot closer to the actual field, and Isaac lopes over to her, pulls his helmet off, and kisses her hard. Allison giggles, then pushes at his chest.
“Try not to kill the kid or break his spine, please,” she tells him, cupping his cheek. Isaac nods once and presses their lips together again. Stiles wolf whistles and Isaac flips him off.
“You two are disgusting,” Malia says. Allison can’t tell if she’s joking or not, but she bumps her with a shoulder gently. On the bench, Liam glowers at Isaac, and Isaac grins nastily back.
When they both go missing a few days after the discovery of the Deadpool and the terrifying realization that everyone she loves is on a hit list, there’s a part of Allison that hopes Isaac finally got sick of Liam and threw him in a lake or something.
The alternative is much, much more terrifying.
Isaac wakes up on his back at the bottom of a ravine in agonizing pain, a 15 year old kid hovering over him and looking terrified. Isaac does not feel terrified. Isaac feels annoyed, and achy, and like he might throw up.
Liam is babbling, and whatever head injury Isaac definitely sustained? Liam’s babbling is making it much, much worse.
“Shut. Up.” he groans.
“Oh, oh god you’re awake-”
“Liam,” Isaac grunts, “Liam, shut up, please. If you don’t shut up I will puke on you.”
“Sorry,” the kid gasps, “Sorry, sorry, sorry-”
“Liam,” Isaac says, feeling much more strained this time around, “Please.”
Liam shuts up. Isaac realizes that Liam is pressing two shaky hands to Isaac’s chest, and that those hands are covered in blood and black goo. Oh, yay. Great. Today is going very badly. Isaac tries to sit up, but can’t. He tries to move a leg, but can’t.
“You’re uh, kind of paralyzed,” Liam says, “I think. I think I saw your spine through your skin.”
“Where the fuck are we,” Isaac snarls, and Liam goes white.
“Um. I don’t know? In the woods. You broke my fall. With-with your body,”
“Call Allison, then call Derek and Scott” Isaac grunts.
“Both phones are...broken?” Liam says. He looks about five seconds away from passing out even though Isaac is the one probably dying.
“So call Scott,” Isaac rasps. His head is starting to spin, and his spine definitely isn’t healing. He isn’t going to heal, not as long as the bullets are in his chest.
“Just so you know,” Isaac slurs out, feeling dazed and sick, “I’m never taking bullets for you again.”
“What do you mean call Scott,” Liam says, “I told you the phones were broken.”
“I mean roar,” Isaac says. His stomach finally gives up completely and he turns his head to the side and throws up greyish black bile. Liam gags himself, and Isaac rolls his eyes.
“I don’t know how,” Liam hisses, looking completely frantic, “You and Scott haven’t taught me.”
“So figure it out,” Isaac says, coughing up a mouthful of sludge, “because I am not dying in this place with only you for company.”
Liam looks guilty. Good. If he wasn’t such an idiot and hadn’t gone careening into the woods after lacrosse practice because he was pissed off they wouldn’t be in this mess. Isaac coughs up another mouthful of black gunk.
“Allison will kill you,” Isaac tells him, “If I die here, by the way. She’s kind of attached to me, if you haven’t noticed.”
Liam just stares at him. Isaac would absolutely strangle the little shit if he was strong enough to move.
“Okay,” he slurs, “Alright, fine. I will do it. I will immediately pass out, and then you’re on your own.”
Isaac tilts his head back and howls miserably, as loud as he can, even as his vision greys out and his stomach rolls. He keeps howling until he passes out.
Scott finds them first. Liam has never been happier to see Scott in his life, especially since he’s being trailed by Derek and Stiles and Allison. Isaac is still very unconscious, and looking worse by the second. Every time he breathes more black stuff foams out of his mouth, and Liam is very concerned that Allison is going to kill him. Isaac likes to make empty threats to scare him, because Isaac is terrifying, but Liam isn’t sure that one is so empty.
Isaac may be terrifying, but Allison is 10 times worse.
“Liam?”
“Down here!” he yells, voice shaking. Isaac makes an awful gasping sound when Scott lands in the dirt next to them, grabbing Isaac’s face.
“Isaac,” Scott says, “Isaac. Wake up. Derek! Get down here.”
“Is he okay? Are they both okay?”
That’s Allison’s voice, sounding high and strained. He can smell her fear which is a new and terrifying ability.
Derek lands hard next to Liam and Liam lets out a very undignified yelp of fear. Isaac groans, eyes opening.
“Derek,” he slurs, and with Scott’s help Derek hefts Isaac into his arms. Isaac screams. Scott gags a little suddenly, and Liam sees why. Isaac’s back is definitely broken, compound fracture, and he can see bloody vertebrae.
Yep. Allison is definitely going to kill him.
“He needs a hospital,” Allison says, curled over Isaac protectively where he lays on his side, “Deaton can’t fix his back when it’s like that, can he? There’s no way.”
Scott is pacing, looking from Liam to Isaac to Derek to Stiles. Derek is taking Isaac’s pain, and Liam is bouncing from foot to foot. Someone tried to kill him. Someone tried to kill him, and he’s only been a werewolf for like a month and a half, and now Allison is going to kill him because someone trying to kill him almost got her scary werewolf boyfriend killed-
Stilles grabs him by the shoulders and gives him a little shake. Liam takes a deep breath.
“Take him to Deaton,” Derek says, “And if Deaton can’t fix him we take him to the hospital.”
Isaac bites Derek in the shoulder when he moves him. Derek snarls at him. Isaac snarls back weakly, eyes flashing golden. Allison approaches him and Liam flinches away, but then she takes his hand and squeezes. Isaac’s blood is still wet on both their palms.
“Are you okay,” she asks him, and Liam does a double take.
“Isaac-”
“I know how Isaac is,” Allison soothes, “But Derek and Scott have him, and he can heal.”
“I’m so sorry-” and then he’s babbling again, and Allison reaches for him and Liam flinches away from her but she’s not stabbing him, she’s hugging him.
“You don’t have to be sorry.”
“Isaac said you were gonna kill me,” Liam stutters. Allison rolls her eyes.
“You really have to stop listening to him.” Allison says, “90% of the time he’s just fucking with you, because he’s an asshole.”
“I heard that,” Isaac slurs weakly from Derek’s arms.
Deaton it turns out can patch up Isaac, and Liam gets bullied into helping hold him down. Lydia, Kira, and Malia meet them at the vet clinic, and Liam watches in a nauseating combination of awe, fear, and confusion as Lydia starts stroking through Isaac’s hair even as he snaps at her fingers.
“Yes, yes. You’re very scary. Calm down, I just got my nails done and if you keep trying to take my hands off I’ll make you pay for my ruined manicure.
Deaton resets Isaac’s spine. Allison is helping, deftly avoiding claws and teeth while she pulls shotgun pellets out of her boyfriend’s chest.
“Why are you all so calm?” Liam bursts out suddenly where he’s holding Isaac’s legs on the metal table.
“This happens more than you might think,” Allison says drily, dropping another shotgun pellet into a bowl.
Liam barely makes it to a chair before he has a stress inducing fainting episode.
Isaac wakes up in Allison’s bed with Derek sitting next to him, feeling like he got run over by a bus, then a train, then another bus. He groans, taking a deep shuddery breath and catching Derek’s earth-cedar-leather scent and Allison’s when he turns his head into the pillow, mostly the lavender of her soap. Chris is there too, and Melissa, and Lydia.
“Hey,” Derek says, and the hand not in his brushes across Isaac’s forehead, “You okay?”
“Feel like shit,” he moans, “Liam?”
“Uh, terrified,” Derek says, “and very stressed, because he watched Allison pull shotgun pellets out of your chest, but in one piece.”
“Little shit,” Isaac mumbles, “Told him not to go running off without warning.”
“I told you not to do stuff fairly often that you did anyway,” Derek says, and Isaac groans, rolling his eyes. It makes his brain throb, which makes his neck hurt, then the rest of his spine. He bites down on his lip, hard. Derek grips his wrist tightly, black veins running up his arm, and after a few seconds Isaac can breathe again.
“Can I get up,” he asks after a few seconds. Derek shakes his head.
“Your spine is still healing. So is the rest of you. Stay down. I can go get everyone, or whoever you want, yeah?”
“Allison,” Isaac says, “And Lydia?”
“Melissa is probably going to come too, you know,” Derek says. Reluctantly Isaac lets go of his hand.
Allison comes in with Lydia hot on her heels, Allison sitting on the bed next to him and kissing his face. Melissa and Chris are hanging back in the doorway
“Please don’t ever do that to me again.” She says, trying for stern. Isaac grins at her weakly, trying to ignore the fact that without Derek’s hand in his, his pain is ramping up. Lydia sits neatly in Derek’s recently vacant chair and squeezes his hand.
“You,” she says, twining his fingers with hers, “Almost bit my fingers off.”
“Sorry,” he rasps. He can feel sweat standing out on his forehead, and he digs the back of his head into the pillows.
“Here, honey,” Melissa says gently, and then she’s placing a pill on his tongue and a cup to his mouth. Painkillers. Hopefully, at least, painkillers. He swallows, and a hand curls around the one Lydia isn’t holding, a big rough one that Isaac knows is Derek’s. The pain lessens. Isaac sags against the pillows of the bed.
“I knew you liked him,” Allison murmurs, “You’re just full of shit.”
“Just because I didn’t let some weird professional assassins kill him doesn’t mean I like him,” Isaac slurs. It’s just them now, curled together on the mattress. Whatever Melissa had given him had kicked in, and he feels floaty and a little sick. Lydia is playing on her phone, still holding Isaac’s hand. When he squeezes it she squeezes back indulgently.
“You like him,” Allison says, kissing his temple.
“If I agree with you will you shut up about it?” he grumbles. Allison snickers, and he kisses her on the mouth,
“Yep.”
“Fine,” he says tiredly, half slurred, half floating on the pain and the medication, “I like him.”

Anvorgueso update
Well a lot has happened this month, he recovered fully of his vertebral column surgery. He had his spinal cord decompressed and had a vertebral fixation with a screw:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
He had to repose in cage for 7 days, and during that time his tail began to necrotize, and some days later, he ate it :’) 
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Shortly after teh surgery we started to see positive progress, since he was able to leak pee drop by drop and occassionally a little bit more than a few drops. His anal sphincter started to look more contracted and that was great. This is the first time he was able to pee on his own:
Tumblr media
On these weeks he was able to support his fractured leg little by little, and if you see how he moves now you might not even think he’s still fractured. That leg doens’t bothers him right now, so it’s not a priority to ‘fix’, it probably will just stay like that. He runs, jumps, and plays with no problem, he’s not in pain, so that’s why I will just leave it as it is, at least for now. 
And he has made some friends at the vet ^^
youtube
They help him exercise and contract his bladder ahaha, ‘cause he often pees while he plays with the other cats at the clinic. 
Tumblr media
The bladder state (and anal sphincter) is constantly getting better and then backs down, and then gets better and such. Because despite he was able to pee a little, he couldn’t do it fully, so he still needed help (I manually squeeze it to make him pee), because if the pee stays there a lot of time he would have a bacterial infection, and could lead to stones.  Nonetheless, the manipulacion of the bladder also provokes inflamation that could lead to narrowing of the urethra and ... well, make a physical obstruction that would block the urination. So several days his pee had been red due to this inflamation, but he has been able to pee on only on his diaper, because it makes pressure on his belly, and that helps him (Just like when he’s playing with the other cats, his muscles contracts a lot, and that’s whhe’s able to pee while he plays). But he has been improving that, just the other day he peed outside the litter box, so that’s something. 
I was able to take him to the neurologist and I’m still struggling to find a medicine he told me to give him (Diazepam), it’s expensive and really hard to buy, since it’s a monitoring medicine, and they can’t sell it ‘just to anyone’. But I’m working hard to get it. Despite that, he’s so much better than a month ago, and that’s  really hopeful, he might be able to recover almost 70% or so. He will not have a normal cat life ‘cause he will have to wear diapers if not all the time, most of the time. That has its own problems too, because his anus will get ulcerate constantly because of the contact with feces and urine, and it might be unpleasant to him, but it won’t prevent him from having a good life quality even so. But it’s necessary to be extremely careful about it. 
I took him to acupuncture too, and physical therapy, we goo every week, that’s why he’s been improving a lot too. They work his spine, and he’s slowly getting stronger.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
This all has been possible thanks to the donations we received of the Charity Raffle, so from the bottom of my heart thank you so much to those that participated (´,,•ω•,,)♡ ❤ And thanks so much to my patrons too, their monthly contribution has also helped me a lot (╥ω╥)  ❤
it’s been a heck of a work to take care of him, but if he can live happy at least one more day with every effort we made for him, it’s really worth all the exhaustion.

We found a cat a few months ago.
Well, my dad found him while walking.
He was stick thin, not a drop of fat on his body.
We kept him at the office at first, unsure of what we'd do, but by the weekend we ended up bringing him home.
We got him checked by a vet, got him a few beds, a scratching post, a nice litter box.
He seemed to be doing better, but suddenly he stopped eating and pooping.
I took him to the vet yesterday, they tried to do an enema. And they tried it again today.
But between how badly fused all the built up bulk had become, the pelvis fractures, and what seemed like really recent nerve damage near the base of his spine, even if we would've been able to clear him up this time, he would basically be incapable of clearing himself on his own.
He was 12 years old, and even though we only had him for a few months, he became a part of the family.
I keep thinking about how if my dad hadnt found him, he would've died on the streets.
As much as it hurts, this pain is worth it if it meant he got at least a few more months warm, fed, and loved.
Rest in Peace, Merlin. Thank you for being here, even if only for a short while.

Tumblr media
so got my dog back and aside from having a drain and some stitches she also had a broken rib and possible fracture in her spine but she’s okay nothing like life threatening. Just vet bills now but I’ll figure all that out. So if I’m not around here I’ll be mobile.

The Impossible Order | Ch.2
Summary line: Mr. Min is a stoic boss who will never outwardly show appreciation for you. Not until you’re gone does he recognize how much you do. And what you do matters to him.
ceo!Yoongi | best.friend!Hoseok | romance, fluff, angst, and stuff
Loosely inspired by Secretary Kim and this third bullet point of the prompt list
Last chapter

Last night, one of the Peruvian suppliers was able to promise 250 ct worth of tourmaline, but it would be delivered in two weeks rather than the originally intended week and a half. Knowing your boss is one for deadlines and punctuality, you believe he’d prefer Hestia Sourcing. Despite your own gut telling you that Peruvian Treasures will pay off in the long run. Regardless of the turnaround time from your main supplier, the 200 ct in two weeks will keep the remaining four projects afloat before the regular shipment. However, you still report the remaining two supplier response and quotes, also providing your own input. Mr. Min says he prefers Hestia; as expected.
“How goes the status on our tourmaline crisis?” Mr. Min asks as he sips on his third cup of coffee this morning.
“Hestia Sourcing has already been officially contacted for their shipment of tourmaline to arrive in a week and a half. Jimin is currently working with Kim Taehyung on the new design for the frame. Seokjin has already crafted two other designs for you to look at today before he meets with Yoo Jae Suk tomorrow. Beyoncé loves alexandrite, but the tourmaline was intended to match with her costumer designer’s vision for the Met Gala, so he’s unwilling to make changes. Your father had already ok’d the change for your parent’s anniversary gift, so we can switch their gemstones with alexandrite instead. The JP team has already started working on the mold for the Jubilee. And marketing just emailed me the final draft for the letter to the customers and PR is still working with marketing for the ethically sourced advertisement. They are utilizing internet ad platforms, both short clip video ads and on social media.” You handed him your tablet for him to read over the final draft letter and Seokjin’s designs.
“Tell marketing to go ahead with the letter. Also, tell Seokjin that I would also like to see his first design with silver instead of rose gold.”
“Yes, Mr. Min.”
“Today I’m meeting with Jasper and Jester Industries over Zoom at 12:30. Tell the tech team I want to use the hologram projector during this meeting because we’re showing them the prototype today. Speaking of prototype, I need to see the prototype from the TP team by 10. Go to L’Orange today for lunch today; I want the lamb chops. James and Soobin will be coming at 1:30 to go over the purchasing of the mine sites for the cobalt mining. Check back in with me at 2 on the Kim Taehyung project and the marketing strategy. I want to see Seokjin’s new designs by 3. And check with our supply team if we’re maintaining our upkeep of inventory. If not, I need a list before 11 this morning along with suppliers’ response for turnaround time and quotes.”
“Yes, Mr. Min.” You had your hands clasped behind your back the entire time.
“Another coffee please.”
“Yes, Mr. Min.” Without another word, you step out and take out your recorder. You play back his directives as you get the coffee.

“Hey, Hoseok.” You sigh as you pour hot water into your instant noodle bowl for lunch.
“Hey, Sunshine.” You chuckle. If the either of you were the sunshine, it’d be him.
“How’s Yeontan?”
“He’s fine. The vet says that he’s a little underfed, but otherwise, he’s still the most adorable Yeontan-ie that has ever lived.” Hoseok gushes at the puppy in his lap as he drives on his way back to his home. Hoseok will be holding onto Yeontan until the weekend.
“Ok. That’s good news. Was he good at the vet?”
“He hates the vet. You should know that better than I do. I was a dog catcher for 30 minutes. And he caused a whole waiting room full of dogs into a frenzy. Did you know that one of the people there brought their snake? I hate those. Yeontan almost fought a snake! You have no idea how hard it was for me to finally grab Yeontan before anything drastic happened.” You laugh as he goes on about his heroic deed of saving your pup from a snake.
“You did very well. Thank you, Hoseok.”
“Never mind that, Blessings. Hey. Are you coming over today after work?”
“I might. My boss has been very extra today. Every ten minutes, his chat bubble pops up adding 3 more things to do. But honestly, with the amount of things going on today, he shouldn’t have anything else left to do tonight. I might actually get off work on time.
“Good. Good. ‘Cause I was thinking –“ before Hoseok can finish his words, you hear the sound of a car swerve.
“Hoseok? You ok?”
“Yeah. Some idiot w-“ and the line cut off.

At 12:15, you were nowhere to be found. You left a message to Yoongi that you had to take the day off. Everything you were requested to do was already set in motion like a Rube Goldberg machine. You texted him saying that there are cups and cups of coffee in the fridge ready for him. If he wants hot, he’ll have to wait another day. And as promised, everything Yoongi needed was here. He had everything he needed. You just weren’t there to provide it.
“Where’s Y/N?” Seokjin asks as he comes in at 3pm like clockwork, “I would’ve thought she’d give me that 20-minute warning like she always does when I have a meeting with you.” She does that?
“I don’t know. She took a half day. I haven’t seen her since 11 or something.” Yoongi says nonchalantly as he looks over the Seokjin’s work. Seokjin just blinks at that before he starts slowly, “That’s not like her. Is everything ok? Do you know what happened?”
“No.”
“It’s just not like her to –“
“I like it better in silver this way.” Yoongi cuts him off, gesturing to the new designs.
“Heh. Yeah, Y/N said you would. I wanted to show you the rose gold one first anyway.” Seokjin chuckles as he sits down across the table from him, “Speaking of Y/N,” I wasn’t speaking about her…, “You got the supplies list for JP, TP, and HP, right? She told me you were working with the cobalt mine sites today. She told me to tell you that since cobalt is one of the supplies on the list, and the mine site wouldn’t be ready just yet, she contacted 3 different cobalt miners and selected Arrows for the cobalt supply.”
“She should’ve come to me first about the different miners. We have our upcoming product from HP –“
“The ceramic tiles for Ms. James’ bathroom. Yeah. She contacted HP. They require 300 g and Arrows is the only one with the adequate amount of supply. It will be here in 5 days.” Seokjin stands up and walks over to Yoongi’s kitchen, “All the other suppliers have been contacted. She sent me the list and wants me to report it to you.”
“You’re just a designer for the jewelry department,” Yoongi says as he looks through his email to see if you sent him any recent emails. Nothing.
“Give me some credit. I’ve got a brain and it’s used for more than just designing. Don’t forget, before I was a designer, I was also your assistant too.”
“Yeah, a pretty bad one.” Yoongi snorts. It’s why he needed you.
“We were just a startup! We literally just graduated then.” Seokjin protests as he come back over and sets down a steaming hot cup of coffee in front of Yoongi.
“I thought Y/N only had iced ones left.”
“She did, but she instructed me to heat up one for you before we go over the list with you.” Seokjin scoots his chair closer as he whips out his tablet to bring up the supplies list, “And one for after.”

“Mr. Jung has suffered a serious blow to the head and is currently unconscious. We don’t know when he will wake at this point. His left arm has scarring from the glass shatters from the window when the car was impacted. His left leg has a hairline fracture and the patella was dislocated but has already been set back. Luckily, his left leg is the worst of the limbs. There’s bruising on the right thigh and right elbow also has bruising. The bruises are likely from holding on to the dog during impact. His right arm has some muscle tears do to strain.
“Right now, our biggest concern is when he will wake up. He had internal bleeding in the brain but the blood has been removed and there’s no clotting, in his brain or anywhere near his spine. Everything is where it needs to be, and there’s nothing that indicated long term brain damage or trauma. But we won’t know for sure until he wakes up.” The doctor nods his head and leaves.
You sniff as you cross your arms, staring at your best friend lying in the hospital bed. His head is wrapped as well as his left arm. His left leg is currently suspended in its cast. By his left eyes and cheeks, are massive bruises that still look sticky and gooey.
If only I didn’t let him take Yeontan…
“How’s my dog?”
“We checked in with the vet hospital nearby. Your dog has no extreme injuries, only mild bruising. The doctor wants him to stay overnight for observation.” The nurse reports to you. You shiver from the lonely air of the hospital.
“You can go in and see the patient right now, but please do not touch him. And visiting hours will be over in 40 minutes.” The nurse gently reminds you before you nod, thanking the nurse and heading in.
Walking towards Hoseok, your nose feels the burn as tears well up in your eyes. Before you even reach Hoseok’s bed, the tears already overflow out.
“I’m so sorry Hoseok. This is my fault.” And he’s a dancer too…oh my God, he’s a dancer….his limbs…
Your tears quickly turn into hysterical sobs, thinking too many things at once. Your greatest prayer is that he wakes up and he is completely healed. You start hyperventilating so you sit down and take deep breaths.
Although you were instructed not to touch him, you couldn’t resist to at least clutch to the hospital blankets next to his right hand, your knuckles touching each other’s.
“Please wake up, Hoseok. I’ll never have you do anything else for me. I’m sorry if I ever took advantage of you. Please know that I never once took you for granted. You are my dearest friend and I don’t want anyone else for a best friend. I promise to hug you more. I promise to cook for you. I’ll do it at your house. You don’t have to come to mine. I’ll clean up my mess after too. I’m here for you, I promise. I really am. I’m not leaving you, I swear to God. Please just wake up and be ok. You’re gonna be ok. I promise.” You turn to look to the hospital window to make sure no one sees you. You grab his right hand and lean down to kiss it, “Please wake up.”
Your phone in your pocket vibrates and you take it out.
The board members meeting is tomorrow at 8am. Please gather the data and reports from the teams ready by 6am. I will look over it before the meeting.
“Fuck you. No. Not now.” You grit your teeth and put the phone back in the pocket.
Your tears are both sad and angry now, but you know you need to calm down. Nothing drastic.
You take a couple deep breaths before you wipe your tears and take your phone out again to write an email. You look up as you think for a moment. Make that three.
