Medical subsidy for a cat, Mr Brown, RIP (Azimah Mohd Othman’s)

We have subsidised RM125 for Mr Brown’s treatment. According to the vet, Mr Brown was brought in with a ruptured abscess on the side of the body, had severe jaundice and dehydration and was emaciated. Wound cleaning was done under general anaesthesia with antibiotic and painkiller injections. Mr Brown was also tested for FIV and FeLV. He was given fluid therapy, liver protectants and further antibiotics and was hospitalised for 2 days. On the third day, according to Azimah, Mr Brown deteriorated and passed away the following day. May Mr Brown be in a better place now.

This Siamese looking kitten appeared out of nowhere in my compound as I was leaving for the vet & the big cat, a day earlier. Since my husband was working during the past weekend it was only last Saturday I was able to take them to the vet. I applied some herbal ointment to both ears of the black & white kitten (ointment obtained from a rescuer friend much, much earlier) & it improved, however, the disease seemed to have spread to its head & body so I had no choice but to take it to the vet. The big cat had a big wound on its tummy (which I noticed on Saturday morning). I took all of them to my usual vet in Gombak & were treated. The kittens were brought back after treatment but the big cat had to be admitted. It was quite fierce (probably in pain) and vet advised for it to be admitted as the wound was quite bad, smelly with pus and the cat was very thin & dehydrated.

The 2 kittens are recovering at home. The big cat would be discharged today. Could I get some help on their bills please?

Also, am wondering if it would be possible for me to acquire financial assistance to have 2 young cats spayed. I will have the photos sent.

Dear Dr Chan

Thank you for your prompt reply. I am hereby re-forwarding the earlier email on them.

I am not sure of the exact amount as I have yet to pay and will only be going to the vet either tomorrow or day after but according to vet rough estimation was around RM200 or so for treatment of the brown cat which unfortunately succumbed to its illness and for the 2 kittens which have since recovered at home. I shall forward pictures of the 2 kitties tomorrow.

Thank you very much once again.

Regards

Azimah
