The trials of Susu

Well, I can't say it's been an easy first week. Susu continues to be afflicted with the runs, which means a host of other problems are not getting better. It also means she's poopy and stinky a lot, so we're forced to wash her a lot, which is not a happy experience for any of us. And out of anger or just because she's sick, she's started using things like the morning newspaper and Chad's suitcase as substitute litterboxes.

The vet changed her diet today and we are REALLY hoping that vanquishes the diarrhea.

Still, she's a pretty cute little bugger, especially when she's getting all sleepy on the couch.

You guys are saints. Oh the poor, poor girl!

Breaks my heart. I hope she gets better very soon.

Poor Susu, I hope she gets well soon. I can tell you love her deeply. Her diarrhea is probably because she does not get used with kitten food. It took time with Suneo to adjust with them too being a stray before, just like Susu. I fed him Friskies Canned Kitten Food (mackerel & chicken flavour) 3oz. wt. because there are not many choices available at the super market. Suneo needed to be spoon fed back then.

We've certainly had some unsaintly thoughts, such as, "let's put this cat back outside the parliament building and forget the whole thing ever happened." But we wouldn't do that. At least, I don't think we would.
