On June 13, 2011 two sisters were relinquished to the Hermitage Cat shelter. Zoe and Chloe were your typical siblings; one outgoing and one painfully shy. Chloe was adjusting to shelter life well and spent a lot of time in the main room of the house greeting guests. Zoe spent her time on a porch avoiding attention. Unfortunately Zoe was also avoiding food. Zoe stopped eating all together and developed Hepatic Lipidosis as a result. In spite of our best efforts Zoe would not eat and she was wasting away as a result. We took her to our Veterinarian at the Humane Society where they determined it was in her best interest to place a feeding tube. In the meantime Chloe was adopted. It wasn????t but a few days before Chloe was returned to the shelter for not eating. When she returned she was already showing subtle signs of Hepatic Lipidosis. We began force feeding her at the shelter. After a few days of this it was obvious that she was not ready to eat on her own. We took her to the veterinarian about a week after we initially took Zoe in. We decided it was in Chloe????s best interest to place a feeding tube for her as well though she was not as bad off as Zoe, yet. Though Zoe had been hospitalized for a week she was still not getting any better. She was being fed through her tube, but continued vomiting. When her sister Chloe was admitted to the Hospital they were placed in a kennel together. This seemed to be the magic touch that Zoe needed to get better. Within four days both cats were starting to eat on their own and were released from the Hospital to go into foster care. Once in foster care the girls thrived. They were spoiled and were served Fancy Feast 3 or 4 times a day. Zoe would still get spooked by strange noises, even someone talking outside the door or window. One night she got spooked and jumped off the bed and landed wrong on her back leg. She limped for a week the poor thing. Now Zoe & Chloe are doing well and have put on weight and Zoe????s fur is starting to grow back. Zoe & Chloe are very sweet, very special girls. They must be adopted together but will make their new family very happy.
