A wild few months
Apr. 30th, 2012 05:22 pm I'll be posting shortly with a bit of a catch-up for you all, as it's been extremely busy lately.
In short, animal rescue work has taken a chunk of my time lately, which is as it should be, and you can find me most often on Facebook. The recent rescue was both fulfilling and heartwrenching, as one cat went into early labor and only one of the three kittens that I was able to resuscitate survived the ride. The total count was closer to 40 cats and kittens; I sort of lost count due to exhaustion but I recognized all of them by sight.
Also, we moved recently into a pretty good apartment, and still are wishing for approval from our landlord for our siamese. My focus is to be able to afford his care before adopting a second cat if it became possible, as there have been a few whom need homes. It's killed me a bit inside to not be able to even consider adopting, but I believe that when the time is right for a companion for TaunWe, the right cat will appear. I kind of wish it could be one of the many bengals that my friend at Spots and Stripes Bengal Rescue has been rehabilitating and rehoming, but she lives in FL and I'd have to pay for transport myself, as it's not included in the adoption fee.
Anyway, been trying to build upon my experiences and qualifications so that someday I can become a veterinary assistant. It's still my dream to work in animal health, although I may have to wear many hats along the way. Like petsitting, pet transport, kennel care, and grooming. My time is not my own lately, but I'm trying to balance work, education, and home life the best that I can.
