Hi furents! Please read my entire bio prior to putting in a reservation request. I’ve been a cat lady ever since I can remember. I'm a lover of both cats and dogs. I said goodbye to the love of my life in December 2020 — a tuxedo named Maxwell Wellington. I found him as a young adult stray in September 2006 and he had been with me ever since. He had hyperthyroidism, chronic pancreatitis, IBD and kitty dementia. He was on a raw diet and had a number of daily medications and supplements. Because of this, I am skilled in administering various types of medication including subcutaneous fluids (& insulin injections) to cats. I volunteered for years with a LA based cat rescue so I learned to socialize and care for many different types of cats and personality types. I think Kenny Rogers said it best, “know when to hold them, know when to cuddle them, know when to walk away, know when to run.” That’s what he said, right? :) During a visit, I noticed my kitty client having shallow but fast breathing. With his dad’s consent, we went to the vet and he was diagnosed with congestive heart failure. He was hospitalized overnight and put on oxygen. The vet said had I not reacted as quickly as I did, the following day could have been a very different situation. Major issues like this come on quickly in cats and often times can be overlooked. With me as your sitter, you can be confident knowing I pay very close attention to any changes in your pet’s health. Current and past clients include: *multiple kitties with kidney failure (subcutaneous fluids and b12 shots administered) *kitties with congestive heart failure (oral meds) *kitty with mega colon (multiple oral meds twice daily) *kitties with IBS & IBD (meds, special diets) *kitties with asthma (inhalers required) *kitties with various cancers (some on chemo) *diabetic kitty (insulin injections twice daily) *blind kitty with a heart condition (oral meds twice daily) *multiple cats with thyroid conditions (oral/topical meds daily) *partially blind & partially deaf cat (oral meds, eye drops) *pup with disc issues who uses a wheelchair (requires oral medication administered twice a day) *many senior kitties and senior pups I was totally obsessed with my cat and I always wanted to know what he’s doing. I’ll always send you a detailed update and a combo of photos and/or videos of our visit!
