peeEss...we do hope to have more updates on MJ…aka Mary…early next week.  But now a teeny story to make you laugh with Mary…why do you suppose the vets started to call her MJ instead of Mary???  Go on…guess???!!

Well…REALLY…she is young, playful and rambunctious…and Mary loved to get up high on top of anything and into everything…remember she was only about 4 months old when found in April…so staff at the vet found themselves always hollering “MARY!!!…jesus!!”…over and over…and so they just shortened it to “MJ!!!!”…now that has to put a smile on your face!

Friday Frolics Leo Style…MJ News

HIYA!!   SAVANNAH HERE!!!

First let me share the most recent news about sweet MJ (aka Mary)…that precious black panfur kitty we have all been trying to help find a home.

Food? For Me?

Food? For Me?

MJ was just diagnosed with feline diabetes…sadly her potential adopter, who was so looking forward to having her, has had to withdraw as they do not have the funds to support her ongoing life long medical care; nor the living environment that will allow for the structure she will need for her feeding…it must be on a schedule coordinated with the administration of her insulin…at least that is what Mom Linda and I learned doing some fast research this morning.

Here are a couple of the sites we read:

http://www.aspca.org/pet-care/cat-care/diabetes

http://www.felinediabetes.com/newdiag.htm

MJ is now living at a Blue Cross Rescue facility in England.  They are searching desperately to find her a foster home right now as diabetic kitties do not do well living in a rescue facility…due to their feeding needs, etc.

Basil has also posted an extensive update on MJ.  Please know that neither Basil nor I nor FB Leo are giving up on MJ…no sireee….we still believe there is someone in England who is able and willing to give MJ the loving forever home she deserves.  We all shudder to think what will happen to this now special needs kitty if that person doesn’t turn up…(shakes head, no, no…not gonna think about that right now…)

ABOUT THE GIFT VOUCHER FOR MJ

Now I am asking all of you to help us decide what to do with the 50GBP gift funds many of you helped us collect.  We still want this to go to MJ…here are two options…PLEASE TELL ME AND FB LEO IN COMMENTS…which of these two options you prefer…just say Number One or Number Two…

Number One: we can gift the 50GBP to the Blue Cross Rescue with it marked as specifically going toward helping care for MJ

Number Two:  we can ask Miss Stella, Mollie and Alfie, to put together some items from her shop for Mary and do a wee bit of shopping for some special wand toys…to make a care bundle to go with Mary to her foster home

Thank you all for your input on what to do with these funds.

Now for a bit of fun…Friday Frolics…Leo style!

He really is a dufus kitty…but ya gotta luvluvluv his enthusiasm!!

Learned from Leo...exploring is fun!

You Are All The Best

HIYA!!   SAVANNAH HERE!!!

I am late getting my post up…so just a short one to say…

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU…

…for the effort you have all put into helping me find FB Leo a furrever castle…and then your pawsome efforts to help FB Leo with his Project to find Mary, aka MJ, her furrever castle.  That is Leo’s way of pawing it forward in appreciation for the help he received.

THANK YOU

Our very, very good friend, Miss Stella, from Mollie and Alfie, worked hard to find Mary a home in England…and she DID!  However, just like Mom and Dad had to approve Leo’s future home, Mary/MJ’s guardians must also approve where she will go….and that takes time to finalize.

Unfortunately, we also just learned today that sweet MJ aka Mary, is not well.  She is having urination problems and is currently being treated/tested at an organization called Blue Cross in England.  So, she cannot be rehomed immediately as her current caretakers must first resolve her health issue.  We will keep you informed as soon as we know, you will know.

I love my Harrington's cat food

Basil’s typist, Miss Laura, will be visiting MJ tomorrow, Friday and perhaps we will know more then.  Please don’t stop thinking of MJ…as she may still need to find a home if the first adopter does not work out for whatever reason.  MJ will still use her hope chest!

On behalf of MJ and my FB Leo…I am thankful for being a part of such an open, accepting and caring community…I can’t say this enough…
