A special thank you goes to all the people who responded to Kay's plea, but esp. to Mike and Kathleen B. of Southampton, PA for donating the remaining monies ($250) in loving memory of their Tri Border Collie Benny (pictured above waiting to open his presents from Santa Paws) who passed in 2008 and Tramp (pictured above surrounded by flowers and probably begging Mike to play fetch), their active Border Collie X rescued from the streets of Philadelphia, but is now enjoying the good life and Sara S. of Philadelphia, PA ($100) in loving memory of her Border Collie Frasier who passed in 2010 (pictured above lounging on the couch). UPDATE 12/30/2010: Kay is doing quite well these days...enjoying the snow somewhat and she was even in the Holiday spirit donning her Christmas hat. She received a well deserved bath and grooming last week and got a new bone for Christmas...boy did she go to town. Thanks to all of you, there are new beginnings for Kay this New Year. UPDATE 11/24/2010: Kay was rushed to the vet yesterday twice for an elevated fever 104.7, surgery complications from 11/18 and dehydration...our vet kept her overnight and she was released to us today -- we are hopeful w/the dual antibiotics her recovery will continue. Please keep her in your prayers. UPDATE: Please visit our Blog with updated photo's of Kay...also, we were $350 short for Kay's Chip In button, but have started a new one for the remaining monies needed for her Hernia Repair, Spay and necessary medical Kay underwent her HW treatment on 10/6 and is doing remarkably well (that's her winking in the first picture, just kidding - the sun was too bright)...the staff take excellent care of the animals at Pet Street Station Vet Hospital and Dr. Liddell has affectionately nicknamed Kay "Blue Eyes". She is on various medications, but is eating, drinking and enjoying life. While on potty breaks we occasionally find Kay rolling in the grass when there is a chill in the air. A special thank you goes to those that have said prayers and donated to her medical fund. We are hopeful her recovery continues, but she will return to Dr. Liddell in a few weeks to spay and repair her Hernia...please check back for updates.
