I really want to scream.  I called the vets office to ask what I could do with Gabrielli until I got paid and got the expected of just keep it clean until we can see it. yadda yadda
So I place her in a cage while I went to work.

I get home and she is not in the cage. The cage is still closed but there is an area by the door where she could have forced her way out.  Yes insert scream here.  I ask and was told that my mom went into the room to get the bird that had also been in the room and as she turned around she saw a grey tail dancing down the hall.

I can only hope I DO catch her again to see the vet.

Oh Gabbers WHY do you do this??

Gabrielli

Today Gabrielli came home with a clouded eye. 
She has been just on the perimeter of the yard lately so I have not had much contact with her. She likes to stay just out of reach . I caught her as she curled up in an empty planter to nap. Since I was taking pictures for the next calendar, I was about to nab a shot until I noticed her eye.

So no pictures, but I do have her in my back room where she can rest in peace and not be tormented by the others.
I do not know what happened, was she in a fight? did she get caught by a rose thorn?
Why do they have to get hurt when I have n money and need a root canal myself???
So now I get to worry and hope that keeping the eye flushed will help until I can get her to the vet.
I really need to find her another home. She is not dealing well with the younger ferals that have shown up.
I hope she does not lose the eye, but until I can get her to the veterinarian I need to not scare myself.
She is one of my special needs kitties. She cannot have rabies vacc. as it will kill her, she does not respond to antibiotics.

She makes me want to cry.  Sometimes I think it would be kinder to just have her PTS but maybe if I could find her another home she would be better than she is here. She is good with people once she knows them, just not cats.
I really hope it is something simple.
