Spinal Cord Party Boys & Friends Blog

Welcome friends. This is an offshoot of http://www.kadethdarkstar.com/, the website you probably found me at. Here's where I can put stories of the cats living in my own personal rescue world, plus the stories of the extraordinary owners and pets who have come asking for help.

If you've been to the website, you'll know I 'coach' owners of injured & spinal cord damaged cats, (I'll also talk to you about feline diabetes) so as to increase the chance of surviving those injuries that are surviable, recovering as much as possible and living well...for both cats and their people.

So, if you want to email me here is the link. Talk to Kadeth

Want to help these sorts of cats? You can do this several ways...

Link this blog up everywhere yo can think of where pet owners go. Share the information here.

Become a friend and follow this blog- there is a place below and to the left to do so.

Link the main website/ cat pages everywhere pet lovers go.

And if you want to offer more...please talk to me. Currently I am looking into how to make a small run of private lable wine for fundraising to support veterinary care for these cats. I am also looking into the legalities of non-profit status. And Pumpkin's dad and I, plus several others including a fine feline veterinarian are looking down to road to creating some sort of sanctuary, education center specificaly serving cats with extraordinary needs and the extraordinary owners who care for them.

Valentine's Day, 2017

Thank you all for the years of questions, support and hellos to Boogar.
It's almost time.
Boogar is almost 21.
Two months ago he turned diabetic, and although he is doing well on insulin there are things changing that tell me it is almost time.

It is almost unbearable to contemplate loosing him, more so being the actual hands that give him release.

I promised him I would be the person who was with him in his last moments, and should he need help going, I would be the one to give the drugs. This is one of the hard things I do, to honor this promise of being responsible for each of my cats exit.
So there is no fear, no pain, no trip to the vet. Just their bed, their friends and me, the strange dark warrior angel with steady hands and the euthanasia drugs.

When I chose to take Boogar more than 20 years ago I promised the cat gods that when Boogar died I would leave the veterinary field. It's interesting, I am less than a year from completing my degree as a therapist. Coincidence? Or the pattern behind life.
I'm not working right now. I had my shoulder reconstructed, 40 years of dog wrestling, working understaffed and such left me needing 4 screws to hold it together.
The pattern again.

So I am thanking the cat gods. Thank you for 21 years. Thank you for the strength to never falter, never fail. Thank you for the strength in my hands to express Boogars bladder every day, every night. Thank you for the courage. For the love. For the friends all around the world we have made.

Boogar is receiving visitors on weekends by prior arrangement, for pets, food and love. He doesn't hurt, he's just doing what each of us must do, preparing to die.

Those of you who will need me in the future, I will still answer medical questions and help you take care of or make the best choices you can for your cats.

Light a candle for Boogar. I hope Pumpkin is waiting for him, and in the next life he is whole, strong, happy and loved for 20 more years.

Peace

Kadeth, with Boogar one last time.

  1. Hi, Kadeth. Hope you're doing well considering Booger is probably in kitty heaven now. You're missing him everyday, I'm sure. When my baby Mami passed,I found it comforting to know that she will be waiting for me at the rainbow bridge when I pass on.

    With that, I just wanted to say those people who have asked you about health concerns of their cat's left you no message to this post. How shady are they? They showed no sympathy or say their condolences or anything! It's kind of upsetting.

    Perhaps they're busy or caught up too much in their everyday bs?

    Anyway, I am sorry.

    I do have question of my own about my cat and that's how I found your blog but just wanted to see how you're doing.

    I will post my question in the appropriate category.

    Thanks!
