Buster Update
Buster is off to the vet now, for a follow-up scan and bloods. He still has vomiting and diarrhoea and is a bit lethargic. Despite this, he still manages to enjoy supervised, outdoor walks and making the most of life.

Stock up on quality cat litter and support a purr-fect cause
Meet Buster, a resilient FIV-positive boy who overcame the harsh streets of Werribee.
After capturing his heart, I've been on a journey to nurse him back to health. Desexing, specialist eye surgery and recent lifesaving surgery, Buster's story is one of courage and resilience.
Despite setbacks, he's the heart of our rescue home. Today Buster was admitted to Advanced Vet Care in Kensington where he is receiving expert care.
Getting the best care comes at a cost and our hero's medicals bills are too much for one person to fund.

Buster is an FIV positive street cat.
He’s been living on the streets in Werribee for at least 3 years.
He’s very smart and not very trusting. He wouldn’t fall for a cat trap so I had to put a lot of time in to gain his trust.
The past 12months I’ve actively engaged with Buster 24/7 to gain enough trust to catch him in order to get him medical treatment. I could see he wasn’t well, his eyes filled with gunk and always sporting an abscess or 2 from street fights.
Fully intact, he’s been competing with all the other Tom’s for female attention.
The past 18 months his main focus was a neighbour’s cat, (Honey) before she ended up being taken into care just before her 3rd litter. Honey and kittens are now safe, desexed and rehomed.
Honey was neglected and always at my window looking for food. This meant Buster would spend more time at my place and slowly let his guard down little by little.
After Honey was saved, Buster would turn up 2 times per day for his meals. Whether he turned up at 3pm or 3am, the camera would notify me and I’d quickly get up to feed him. He knew I was reliable. Slowly I was able to get close enough to pat him and eventually able to get him halfway into a dog carrier and then push him in.
He spent the first few days in shower cubicle before expanding his space to the entire bathroom.
His first vet visit confirmed my suspicions of FIV.
After a week he transferred to the sunroom/my exercise room. It’s like a fish bowl with all the glass and he loves to be able to see outside.
2nd week, 2nd vet visit. He is on 4 medications twice per day.
He’s put on weight, just shy of 8kg.
He’s still intact and his bone marrow is not too bad yet so he will be desexed soon.
He is toilet trained and never misses.
He loves food and loves his bed.
Next week his catio will be installed so he can get some fresh air.
Once he’s desexed, microchipped,a little more domesticated and feeling well he will be looking for a furever home. He will need to be

We often see posts from people asking how to medicate their cat. We all know they are far too switched on to hide it in their food, then there’s the fact that they have teeth and claws which they won’t hesitate to use in self defence.
Let’s face it, most cats just won’t participate when it comes to medication.
Here’s a simple 4 step demonstration to make medicating easy. So easy you can do it in heels 👠😺 Feat. our very special 15 year old lymphoma patient Lou Lou 😻
