Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / November 2005surgery on 23yo Nutmeg a success
Katie and I drove up to NYC reservoir area to see a longtime friend. Unfortunately missed seeing Nutmeg, her 23yo tortie, who was having surgery that day for dental abscesses and she pulled through in fine fettle. yesterday went to the Pike County Humane Society which the paper had as folding with pet populations to be euthanized, but with donations of $15,000 in two weeks they will stay in business threough March at least. My heart went out to the houseful of cats, even cuter than on prior visits. A tortie female was an incorrigible charmer, gently playing from the top of the cat tree, an older male exuded affection (beuatiful black&white with a white stripe down his long nose). Norm -- "In 2005, the refining margin...has exceeded $20 per barrel, far above the long-term average of $6. That has meant record profits for oil companies and refiners" NYT 2005/09/11 > Katie and I drove up to NYC reservoir area to see a longtime friend. > Unfortunately missed seeing Nutmeg, her 23yo tortie, who was having [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > playing from the top of the cat tree, an older male exuded affection > (beuatiful black&white with a white stripe down his long nose).

The vet gave her light anathesia and an 85% success chance. Here's a scary story about Nutmeg. Some years ago Johanna got a call from a neighbor at her NY house, saying the SPCA had broke in to rescue two dogs and a cat. Seems her son, Nutmeg was his cat, had gone off on vacation leaving two friends and their two pitbulls: the two friends also left, the neighbor saw/heard there was nobody in attendance and called the SPCA, Johanna was called that Nutmeg was going to be put down, she demanded they hold off and left on an 8hr drive to reclaim Nutmeg. Arriving too late that Thursday she got Nutmeg the next day, Christmas Eve, and drove back to Maine. Close call on two scores, the pitbulls and the SPCA. -- "In 2005, the refining margin...has exceeded $20 per barrel, far above the long-term average of $6.
