Hello all -
I posted around 2 weeks ago that my younger sister had passed away leaving 13 cats, including a sugar kitty, Peanut.
A friend of hers is handling the estate, plus the adoption of all of her kitties! He's taking 3 himself, but I said I would try to help him find a home for Peanut.
Here's some info on Peanut that my sister compiled:
Born sometime in 1998
Male, fixed, DLH, Grey and White
Full Name – Mr. Peanut Horatio McCuddles
Peanut has diabetes and is currently getting 2 units of insulin (Lantus) twice a day (total of 4 units). He should also be on a diabetes diet, but that has been impossible for me to do. He was supposed to have his latest Glucose Curve test done this past March (2010), but I couldn’t afford it, so that needs to be done asap. (To see if his current dosage needs to be changed.) He usually gets tested every 3 to 6 months, depending on the test results. Also, he has a pad of fat on his belly about the size of a half egg. I had it biopsied, so it’s only fat, it’s not a tumor. But, it should be watched to make sure it doesn’t get any bigger. He also has some weird round thing about an inch below his right ear near the back of his neck, It seems to be in the skin, but it should be looked at, at some point.
Peanut is like a rag-doll kitty…you can pick him up and flip him over and hold him in all sorts of ways, and he just lies there and takes it. He loves to lie next to you when watching TV and jump on your shoulder and sling himself across the back of your neck when you first come home from work. He is a very friendly cat and a good “uncle” cat. He took total care of some newborn kittens I was raising…washing them and keeping them warm and safe, etc. He would probably get along well with any other cat(s), as long as the other cat(s) isn’t very aggressive.
There's a picture attached below....
I have given his current caretaker a Relion meter with some strips, there is a box of u-100 syringes (NOT with 1/2 unit markings), and I can provide 4 Lantus cartridges to the new owner - there is also a fairly current vial of Lantus which still has many doses left.
Peanut is located in Alhambra, CA, which is just slightly northeast of L.A., close to the Pasadena area.
Since his current caretaker needs to leave the state within the next week or two, we need to find him a home ASAP.
If you can help or know anyone who can, please let me know - you can post here, or PM me.
Thank you!!!
