Remembering Doodie (aka Phoozie)





She was known as Phoozie when she was presented at the clinic. Not eating, inactive and basically not herself.



She was diagnosed with chronic renal failure.



Checking Phoozie's real gender, it turns out that she is a castrated male, (a HE)!!! Yes, for the longest time that Phoozie was with his real owners, they didn't know that since they only got Phoozie from the streets and adopted his as thier own. Upon knowing this, they changed his name to Doodie.



For several weeks, Doodie was hospitalized and blood counts, chemistries and electrolytes were monitored. He got well eventually and this video is the first time he started eating again.






She went home a few days later.



Yet after a few months, since kidney disease continually progresses, she was back at the clinic.



After a few days, it was time to say goodbye.



Goodbye Doodie. We will always remember you as one of the good tempered and sweet siamese we cared for in the clinic with such loving and caring owners.

Max’s new owner rescued him from the streets. He was apparently in(?) a plastic bag by the street of an actually rich village when he was found.

Max was presented due to limping and at presentation, the left forelimb was swollen, painful to touch and has a wound with pus oozing. Radiograph revealed no fractures and/or dislocations but is suspicious for periosteitis.

Medications, wound management and removal of pus was the main goal. Increasing the appetite is also included. 4 days later, Max was ready to go home.


he's having his ears cleaned - earmites...



wound has actually improved from a swollen one with oozing pus to this one with granulation tissue forming.

The funny thing was Max was only given his name on the day of his discharge, about 4 days after presentation. During his stay at the clinic he doesn’t have a name and is identified only as Siamese kitten.

A few days later, Max’s owner called up that Max is actually a lot better. He’s walking, though still limping, and is more playful than ever. Aside from that he is also more demanding now… hehehe. Siamese.

As of posting of this blog, max has not visited the clinic yet but I got spoke with the owner just the other night. Apparently, Max is very very active now, the wound healed though with slight limping and he has a very good appetite. He'll be visiting this coming week.

I asked the owner if she's still willing to give up max for adoption, she said "not anymore", she loves max and intends to keep him.
