Awesome Catsitter - Bow Wow Meow - Saved our cats life

Recommended Posts

We want to say a huge, huge thank you to Lisa at Bow Wow Meow. Lisa has looked after our elderly, diabetic cat Otis since we moved to East Dulwich three years ago, and she is always great. However this weekend, she went way, way above and beyond her job and literally saved our cat's life.


This weekend, while we were at a wedding in Ireland, Otis went into hypoglycemic shock - a seizure broght on by low blood glucose, and fatal if left untreated quickly. He was fine the night before, but when Lisa came in for his morning fed and insulin injection she found Otis having a seizure. She has lots of experience with feline medical issues, and knew exactly what to do to raise his blood glucose quickly to stabilise him. It happens quickly but once it's over, diabetics are normally fine. Once he was stabilised, she took him to the emergency vet as a precaution. He got the go ahead to return home within the hour. She then returned a few hours later to find he had crashed again. She rushed him to the emergency vet, and hospitalised him for overnight monitoring. She then collected him the day after and visited throughout the day to ensure he was ok.


Throughout what must have been a horrible, scary, stressful, exhausting time for her, Lisa kept us fully informed. Even though it was truly horrible hearing this while we were so far away, it made SUCH a difference knowing Lisa was there taking SUCH good care of him. We returned to a tired, but alive, furry palwhis is 100% down to the swift action, truly fantastic care and attention of Lisa.


Lisa, you saved our little best friends life, and we can never thank you enough.


Bryan & Fiona

    • Dear families,   My name is Eleanor. I’ve worked in NHS Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services for the past eight years, and I’m about to begin an Infant Observation course in preparation for psychotherapy training. I’m looking for a baby to observe as part of this training.   The observation involves me visiting a baby and their parent for one hour a week over two years, with the aim of deepening my understanding of early emotional and developmental processes. Taking part is a generous contribution to the training of future child psychotherapists — ultimately supporting the mental health of children and families.   Both of my own children were observed as babies, which I found to be a really positive experience. Having an observer gently witness my babies’ development helped me notice their weekly changes in a new way, and I came to appreciate the calm, consistent presence of a trained observer. I was sad when the observations ended!   If you — or someone you know — is expecting a baby due before the end of February*, I would love to hear from you. You can contact me at +44 7977 910018 or [email protected].   Best wishes, Eleanor
    • I rarely iron, so my massive ironing board is just taking up unnecessary space. Does anyone have one of those little ones that you can use on an ordinary table?
    • It's happened twice today, I've never had this happen before! Here's the second one. All I did was try to agree with a post in the lounge!
    • Now I'm having my hand slapped by some forum bot 😮 All I did was try to add a laughing emoji to ianr's post. This is obviously a message from the universe to tell me to get off my phone and get back to working my way through my very lengthy to do list 🤣 ETA: And it's just happened again when I tried to agree with a post in the lounge. OK universe, I give in. Back to the hideous task list.
