KATE UPDATE

Hi Folks,
Kate is feeling better after KC/pneumonia and was able to go get a check up from the vet.

Kate DOES have very little vision, her ears are good and clean, her teeth are good and she is at a great weight of 47.5 pounds.

However she has suffered long term neglect of her tail and will now need to have it amputated to eliminate all of the suffering from infections. It will make her feel like a new girl and I know she will be happier with out all of the pain and itching it has caused her. She deserves to live her golden years pain and itch free as it has also been very painful for her to even just have her tail cleaned.
She will be having her surgery on Aug 28th and will need a few weeks of recovery time. So please wish her a safe and speedy recovery.

Check back for all of the surgery dettails, photos and to see how sweet Kate is doing.

Kate's foster mom,
Kodie

KATE UPDATE

Hi There,
Kate went to the vet and had kennel cough/pneumonia, so I have been letting her rest as we clear this up first.
I continue to work on cleaning her ears, tail and those nails.
She is a very sweet girl, she loves to sleep, eat, be brushed and petted, she also likes to find a sunny spot outside to lay in.

Her vision is not good nor will it ever be, she does still see and can get around just fine (especially when you have a treat in your hand *LOL*)

Please check back for her updates.

P.S. I would also like to thank her sponsor's Deborah and Lou, thank you so much for helping Kate.
