Midge is a 1 year old DSH. She was a bit of an emergency rescue case from my other half's sister, discovered when we were house sitting for her while she was on holiday. She had 4 cats, none of which were neutered and one had just had 2 kittens. One of the kittens was fine, but the other one (Midge) didn't seem very well at all. She seemed to struggle for breath sometimes even if she hadn't done anything and her eyes and nose always had quite a lot of discharge round them. She didn't seem to improve at all over the next few days and with Laura due back (and her 4 kids who, I heard, had been throwing the poor little kitties around!) I had to get her out of there. I honestly didn't think she was going to make it but figured she would stand more.of a chance at home with me after seeing a vet with lots of peace and quiet!
So anyway, to cut a very long story short, she is still very much with us -and doesn't she make sure we know it every day!! She still has moments where she pants slightly but the vet has said this is due to an upper respiratory tract problem which is nothing to.worry about at the moment and easily treated if it got any worse. She is such a madam with a huge attitude, but I wouldn't have her any other way. I am so unbelievably proud of her having been through everything she has and still loving life the way she does!
I apologise for the emotional.essay, but I wanted to fill you in on our background a.little

. If it got into the wrong hands I'm sure they could use it as a chemical weapon! Mmm... I wonder if it works against greenfly......?
