How to take care of spinal injury cat

Remember last few days, i'm telling u about this stray cat that most probably been hit by a motorcycle?? These past few days was a very challenging moment for me n also my husband. With so little of knowledge about injured cat handling put us in most stressed moment ever. We was thinking of sending him to Animal Shelter but the place is already jam-packed. Instead of asking about this injured cat, the owner asking if we are interested of becoming volunteer there. hehehe. 

We had brought a few things that we think may ease our job and help this cat. 

1. New born pampers: since the designated pet pampers is sooooo very expensive, we decided to buy bb's pampers. U can make hole at the end to make the tail get through. 

2. Wet tissue: to wipe off the urine n cleanse the cat. 

3. Mask: if necessary, to be used while cleaning the poops. 

4. Disposal glove: for hygienic purposes during poops cleaning

5. Towel: Small n big towel to dry-off the cat

6. Hair dryer: for fast drying after bathing

Since the cat cannot control its own bladder, so we decided to bath this cat every morning. This to make sure that this cat is clean n to prevent any infection as this cat has an open wound on the stomach. 

Our routine and schedule is now changing:

Routine starts as early as 8am. Bath the cat, only if he pooped in the early morning. Feed him n give medicines. He still can urinate by himself but still need to be cleaned off manually as he cannot feels it. Now needs to mop the entire house twice a day, huhu patah pinggang! hehe. just to make sure no unwanted smelly2 odour. At night, we place the cat into a box so that he will not walking around without pampers and spread around the poops or urine. 

that is how our new routine.... we dont know for how long this will be going on like this and for how long that we able to cope with this matter. For some reasons we might not able to keep this cat as for our jobs required to travel a lot. At the same time, we also pity the cat 's future, if he remaining with this condition. We hope that at least he can survive and take care of himself even if we are not around. 

Most probably, some will think that we are not sincere in taking care of this cat but, bear in mind that we at first have no intention of keeping a pet, but as a human being we can't let this cat suffer since we have saw him in pain the day we found him. No criticise n yes i need advice. (in a polite way though).

Kucing ooo Kucing

 Salam Dunia, 

AlKisah kami sekeluarga dengan kucing sebenarnya dari kesian tengok kucing yang minta-minta makanan sampai la dah jadi rutin kami bagi makan n sekali sekala bagi mandi kat stray cat. Mula-mula dulu di Shah Alam. Tapi kami tak bela kucing tu meaning kami tak kurung pun kucing tu, ikut suka dia la nak datang dan pergi. Biarla dorang bebas ke mana sahaja. Bukan tak nak jaga tapi komitmen terlalu tinggi dan ktorg rasa tak mampu memandangkan selalu travelling ke sana sini. 

Dari Shah Alam, sekarang dah 2 tahun pindah ke Miri, Sarawak pulak. So kucing-kucing yang biasa diberikan makan itu kami tak bawak. Hopefully ada lagi insan-insan yang sudi nak kongsi sikit rezeki ngan kucing-kucing tu. :) 

Di Miri ni pun sama jugak. Anas pun dan terbiasa bagi makan kat kucing-kucing terbiar. So mana-mana kucing yang lalu ke singgah ke semua dia bagi makan. Of course nak peluk jugak.... Memandangkan Anas ada sejarah asma, so dia agak alah dengan bulu-bulu, sometimes Anas akan selsema jugak kalau time alah dia tu datang. So kena la bagi mandi dulu stray cats ni semua pastu barula Anas boleh pegang.

Baru-baru ni ada seekor kucing kecil lagi, tak sampai setahun kot, Anas gelar die Jebat. hahah... Comel n catchy jugak nama tu. Tak tau kenapa, ktorg syak kena langgar. Tiba-tiba jumpa tak boleh jalan kaki belakang dia. Taik bersepah. tak boleh nak control bladder jugak. So panggil mobile veterinary cakap spinal cord injury. Itu cerita rabu lepas (190815). Bagi inject n ubat untuk makan selama 10hari. Kencing berak kena manual bersihkan, n baru tau yang pet pun ada pampers la. hahah. Masa g petshop Miri ni, time nak tanya tu, 2,3 kali fikir tanya ke tak. hahah. memang ada la weyyy. 

Hari pertama: Jebat lemah, tak rasa apa-apa masa dibersihkan taik n badan. force feed. 

Hari kedua: Boleh angkat badan sikit. time cuci taik n kencing leh rasa sakit sikit. berak darah

Hari ketiga: Jebat dah boleh rasa banyak bila aja kita sentuh bahagian belakang, still force feed. agak kuat dah nak alihkan n pusingkan badan

Hari ni hari keempat (sabtu) ktorg decide nak hantar ke klinik untuk xray. Result xray menunjukkan tak ada apa-apa yang patah, retak atau dislocated. semua tulang-tulang elok terletak. Cuma die tak boleh nak rasa sebab ada masalah dengan saraf. Vet advice kena constantly urut kucing ni. Lagipun dia dah boleh rasa banyak bila kita sentuh. 

Yang paling happy, ialah hari ni Jebat dah berselera nak makan. Tukar food hari ni beli a/d food khas untuk critical care. sua je syringe ke mulut Jebat dah jilat. Berlari iols ke dapur ambil bekas makan, sua ke mulut terus Jebat makan. lepas makan bancuh susu anas bagi. alhamdulillah nak dia minum. Mudah-mudahan cepatla sembuh dan boleh jaga diri sendiri n boleh main-main macam dulu. Rindu pulak tengok kucing ni main. 

Jom semua tolong doakan ya Jebat cepat sembuh, supaya dia boleh hidup berdikari. Terima kasih semua atas keperihatinan dan doa sekalian. 

Hari pertama: boleh tengok dari pagar je sebab dah lari masuk rumh jiran. 

Panggil-panggil pun buat derk aje. 

Beralih dari panas. Dah cungap-cungap masa ni sebab haus n panas

Lepas berihkan, lemah je

Baru lepas makan ubat.

Hari ketiga, nampak bertenaga sikit. Pampers uuu, baru tau ada untuk kucing n dog. Kalau beli yang bb size newborn. 

Till we meet again,
