As many of you know, Amos T. Cat is in the hospital with a sort of bladder infection. He is in stable condition at Hillcrest Animal Hospital as of 10:15 a.m. Tuesday, December 5, 2006, and is expected to be released Thursday.

At approximately 4:30 p.m. Sunday evening, Amos was rushed to After Hours Animal Hospital in North Little Rock. They inserted a catheter to empty his very-full bladder. After some IV fluids overnight, they released him to his owner Monday morning (complete with his kitty-catheter and chipper attitude).

He was then transported to Hillcrest Animal Hospital where he was admitted. At the time he still had blood in his urine and needed antibiotics, IV fluids, and the catheter. He is expected to be released sometime Thursday.

His owner is wrought with grief and has been reportedly seen typing in third person. The only statement by Amos’s family has been of thanks for the continued support of friends and family: “thanks everyone.”

Rehab will begin once Amos is at home, starting with a new diet of organic cat food.

The family is accepting donations in lieu of flowers to cover the cost of treatment, which is now estimated at over $1,000. Thank you for your support.
