Just a thought!

Instead of buying fireworks buy 2 cans of pet food for a shelter animal.

Don't make a noise... ....make a difference!

Nkosi sikelel' Afrika
Maluphakanyisw' uphondo lwayo,
Yizwa imithandazo yethu,
Nkosi sikelela, thina lusapho lwayo.
Morena boloka setjhaba sa heso,
O fedise dintwa le matshwenyeho,
O se boloke, O se boloke setjhaba sa heso,
Setjhaba sa South Afrika - South Afrika.
Uit die blou van onse hemel,
Uit die diepte van ons see,
Oor ons ewige gebergtes,
Waar die kranse antwoord gee,
Sounds the call to come together,
And united we shall stand,
Let us live and strive for freedom,
In South Africa our land.

Cats & Cow’s Milk
What is Lactose Intolerance?

Many cats love the taste of cow's milk and some of their owners give it as a treat. In cats with very little or no lactase enzymes, the body is unable to digest the milk and instead attempts to expel it from the system. The undigested lactose sugars in the intestinal tract begin to draw all sorts of bacteria. The sugar then ferments, causing adverse reactions by the stomach and gastrointestinal system. This manifests as stomach acid and painful gas in the cat.

Symptoms of Lactose Intolerance in Cats
-Excessive gas
-Abdominal pain
-Bloating
-Vomiting
-Diarrhea
-Constipation
-Polydipsia (increased thirst)
-Dehydration
-Increased heart rate
-Dry gums

Treatment of Lactose Intolerance in Cats

While long-term treatment simply requires eliminating milk and dairy products from the cat's diet, symptoms may need to be alleviated in the short term to lessen the amount of pain the cat goes through. If the cat has become severely dehydrated, more treatment may be necessary.

Intravenous Fluids

If the cat has been vomiting or expelling diarrhea for a lengthened period of time, bodily fluids may need to be replaced intravenously. Hospitalization is required for this process.

Subcutaneous Fluid Administration

If the cat is mildly dehydrated, your vet may administer fluid via a syringe into the loose skin on the back of the cat's neck.

Blackie is on his way home.
He’s giving out and still can’t walk but there is a bit of chance he might recover.
Lots of tablets for him now and he has to exercise twice a day but hopefully we will be much better soon
