Hidden Kitty

Thursday, May 31st, 2007

Twirl has to be in such pain. She spends most of her day hiding under the futon. When I go upstairs, she will come out for a few minutes then she scoots under the furniture again. She quit eating this morning. I just sent hubby to the store with a list of different cat […]

Twirl is now earless

Tuesday, May 29th, 2007

I took Twirl into the vet today to have her surgery. I felt so bad, but she is in so much pain and discomfort, I am hoping I am doing the right thing by her. They gave her a full check-up and that’s when they noticed she has these funny growths on all four of […]

Twirl will soon be earless

Monday, May 28th, 2007

Tomorrow morning, I will be taking Twirl over to Ben for her surgery. He has said he is going to remove both of her ear flaps down to almost her head because the cancer has slowly been encroaching lower and lower so the pinna (ear flaps) have to be removed.
The squamous cell carcinoma if […]

The buzz is

A day of blessings

Tuesday, May 15th, 2007

Years ago, to long to remember, my mother gave me a quilt that she had started. The quilt is a kingsize quilt, white and antique white. It was a kit that she bought when her and daddy were first married, and the design was in candlewicking. Most of the candlewicking was done, there were a […]

Busy household

Wednesday, May 9th, 2007

Yesterday the cats had a flea-date. When I flea treat them now, I do it during meal time. They are distracted, their heads are down into a plate of smelly wet fish food. They don’t appear to mind the strong chemical smell of Advantage. I buy the large dog advantage and using a syringe with […]

The ignorance factor

Wednesday, May 2nd, 2007

Because whoever had these cats didn’t spay and neuter early, these cats are seriously disabled when it comes to getting along with other cats. Cruiser (the orange and white boy) has taken up residence under the house. He only comes out to eat, or he will come out if coaxed long enough, if I am […]
