Well I picked him up this morning from the emergency clinic and took him directly to my vet. They said that it looks like he will be there for 3 or 4 days because they are going to have to watch him very closely. I was relived to know that the nurse that has been caring for him used to work in a place where he took care of cats with blockages all the time. When I talked to him this afternoon he said that the PH of his urine had come down and that his urine was starting to clear up but was still bloody. They are still really watching all of different levels of stuff in his blood because there is a chance that he could crash and they are really watching his kidneys making sure they are starting to function more normally. Needless to say, I have spent 1100 dollars on my cat in the last 24 hours. I am so thankful that I work in the summer.
In other news, this week I have been taking a class the last few days. It is call Music and Children's Literature. It has been very interesting and quite enjoyable. Today we spent 2 hours just doing different drumming activities, which now makes me want to buy a whole set of drums for my classroom. Though I did discuss the possibility of writing a grant next year with the other music teachers in our district and seeing if we couldn't buy a set that we could send around to all of the different schools during the year so that we could all benefit from it. I have also found more adorable books that I want to purchase for next year! I am loving this class and it is really motivating me to get busy and start planning activities for next school year!

It never occurred to me before, is there such a thing as cat health insurance? Hope Boaz returns to good health very soon.
I hope Boaz recovers quickly. I've been reading your blog and I can only imagine how stressful it's been for you.
I'll look forward to seeing your new and improved dresser!
