August 2010: Good news, Bonnie has not had a seizure in a while! She continues to take her medication to prevent these episodes. All the volunteers and staff take great efforts to keep Bonnie in a calm environment to prevent any recurrence of her seizures. She remains a content cat that enjoys cuddling with the volunteers and veterinary technicians that care for her in the shelter; she likes plenty of attention and has no problem demanding it! She also enjoys the comfort of her fancy duplex home with plenty of space to lie around and play. However, every so often she does venture out and prances around the cat room in the shelter. She is very social in the company of people, no so much with other cats. The proof was at the photo and video shoot we had recently at the Animal League. All the attention from the camera crew was very calming for her. Bonnie continues to take her medication like a good girl and is closely monitored.

September 2010: Bonnie adores her duplex home in the Animal League’s shelter with plenty of space to move around. She seems quite content and comfortable. Bonnie isn’t a very social cat when it comes to other cats but she really enjoys the company of people. The proof of that was at the photo and video shoot we had recently at the Animal League. All the attention from the camera crew was very calming for her. Bonnie continues to take her medication like a good girl and is closely monitored.

October 2010: Our Bonnie is doing very well and is a favorite in the shelter Cat Room with the volunteers and staff. She is the first cat that is let out of her cage for playtime every morning – something she feels she is entitled to this because of her seniority! She spends a good part of her day patrolling the Cat Room. She even has a job –“Correction Cat”. She lets the kittens and younger cats know who is boss – and gets the respect she deserves from them. If a kitten or rambunctious cat is getting a little out of hand, Bonnie takes over and shows them how an Animal League cat is expected to behave! All the volunteers and staff watch her closely so she won’t get too excited. She has been seizure free for several months now.

February 2010 Update: Bonnie’s health has been great and she hasn’t had any seizures for a while. While she isn’t the most social cat when it comes to other felines she likes it when people make a fuss over her. One of the Animal League volunteers often engages Bonnie with a laser pointer; Bonnie loves chasing it all over the cat room floor and up the walls! Bonnie continues to take her medication like a good girl and is being closely monitored. We have made great effort to keep her in a calm and stable environment to prevent any seizures.

March 2010 Update: Unfortunately, Bonnie has recently suffered two seizures. Animal League veterinarians are not sure what is setting off these seizures, but they will continue to closely monitor Bonnie. They have also advised to continue her on the same medication. Although she did suffer a small set back with the seizures, that didn’t stop her from licking the volunteers who fuss all over her. She is most happy when the volunteers play with a laser pointer; Bonnie loves chasing it all over the cat room floor and up the walls. Because of your generosity, we can continue to care for and provide love to our dear Bonnie.

April 2010 Update: All the pets here at North Shore Animal League America experience their ups and downs and our special-needs pets are no exception. While Bonnie has been feeling good since being back here at the Animal League, there have been a few times when she has experienced a seizure. Our loving staff in the shelter makes sure to administer Bonnie’s daily medication to help prevent these occurrences and this has helped greatly. The few times that a seizure has occurred, the staff comforted her with extra care. Thank you for your dedication and your support of Bonnie which helps to provide her with the daily medication she needs.

Our precious Bonnie has been enjoying her home despite having a few other felines around that she doesn’t necessarily get along with. Even when Bonnie was at the Animal League she sometimes had a fickle attitude and would enjoy her alone time in her cage while the other cats scampered around. In her home Bonnie typically spends her time away from the other 4 cats and retreats to her own room to relax. Of course Bonnie makes her way out to enjoy dinner time. Her family says that Bonnie gobbles up her wet and dry food quickly and this seems to be her favorite time of the day!
