Excuse me for hijacking the CrazieCats Blog - this is a plea for help.

This information will also remain in my blog's sidebar until after the Race.

My teddy bear Mac and I will be taking part in the 2008 Race for Life, to help raise money to continue the research into cancer and the chances of finding a cure.

Read about my 2007 Race here.

Everyone, everywhere is touched by cancer, be it family and friends or celebrity, in one form or another.

Race for Life is Cancer Research UK’s flagship event that has grown to become the UK’s largest women-only fundraising event. Whether one chooses to walk, jog or run the 5k course, the events are an inspirational day out with family and friends.

In 2007 665,000 women were brought together to walk, jog or run 5k to raise £40 million pounds for Cancer Research UK – the world’s leading independent organisation dedicated to cancer research.

Click on the link to find out more about Race for Life and who takes part.
And here to learn more about Cancer Research UK and the vital work that they do.

Click on the counter in my blog's sidebar to sponsor me to complete the Race for Life on June 14th 2008 - or just to donate to this worthy cause.

My fundraising has been kicked off by Naomi in the Hills with a generous donation!

The more money I am pledged, the faster I will walk! Please help – every pound, dollar and euro counts.

Thank you - from me, from the women and from the families.

Update on the Old One

This morning we packed Pandora into her travelling crate to go to the V.E.T.
Her vet for the last eight years has been her precious 'Uncle' Tim, a lovely man and an extremely good vet who is fantastic with fractious cats - and Pandora defines fractious! He has also cared for Ambrose (who died in 2001) and Echo (who died in 2004) and currently, Charlie.
But lately staffing changes have meant Pandora has had to get used to new vets.
Auntie Elena is one of her favourites - a lovely Spanish lady from Madrid.
Auntie Julie - she doesn't like her so much.
And today Pandora met another new vet, Auntie Helen.

Helen was quick, gentle, understanding and dealt with us as well as Pandora (one of the reasons we still use this practice even though it is more expensive than others).
She checked out the lump, then checked out Pandora's lymph nodes and certain specific parts of her anatomy.

As we hoped, it's unlikely to be cancer. It's more likely a lipoma, as I suspected. It's actually on her ribs and not on her shoulder.
She's not 'sick', she doesn't limp, she is eating fine, sleeping well, using her tray properly and still leaping (albeit gently!) onto laps, chairs, tables and boxes. Not bad for an 18yr old cat - which translates roughly to 85-90yrs old!
We politely refused unnecessary testing, figuring it would upset the old dear too much.
We agreed to watch her carefully for the next couple of months and whip her back to the vet if she appears ill or in discomfort.

Once her claws were clipped she was crated back up for the trip home.

Of course, the old madam got her own back, managing to throw up and wee simultaneously on the way home while her crate was on my lap.


Pandora: we know your time here is not infinite but we will still keep you with us, healthy and content, as long as possible.

Mama cq

Me 'n' Bengal

This is me and my little fur-iend Bengal. Mum doesn't know her real name, but we fink Bengal suits her - don't you? We talk through the window a lot. Bengal is a very noisy girl cat and yells a lot - Mum says she's on heat wiff hormones and fings......what are hormones, Mum?

Mum has said she's going to work out how to make 'screens' so we can have the windows open proper.....

charlie

Long Time No Miaow......

Hi everyone, we know you've been worried, but Mum has trouble keeping her own blog up to date, let alone ours too.......Diva Kitty went to visit Mum's blog to see if we wuz ok.

Well, to bring you all up to date....I am fine - tomorrow is my 18th birthday (proper, after Mum miscounted last year!). I'm getting a bit creaky now, slowing down a bit. My hips hurt when I first get up, but I'm mostly good.I still smack the CharlieBoy around now and then, but he's tending to stay away from me now.

pandora

Hey, is mah dudes still out there? Mum has not been helping us to blog, and we haven't been online for ages. I'm, like, huge now.......way bigger than the Old BattleCat. I'm even too big for Mum's lap now...... I don't have the harness any more, I go into the garden on a collar 'n' lead.

Mum said to post this old picture, it's one of her favourites - me at a year old.

D'you know, it has rained here for weeeeeeeeeeeeks.......every day it rains. Mum says it's flooding up the motorway aways from us. I wonder if the floodies will come here.....hope not, I can't swim.......

charlie

BlogBreak

I know I haven't helped the cats to blog lately, but I have been ever so busy and struggling with my depression.

Both of the felines are fine, Pandora is doing really well and Charlie is.....well, Charlie!

They'll be back when I'm feeling a little more capable.
