Pets

Well, this morning’s cat dosing went better. The Kitten (who we are calling “Patches” unless we can find something better) takes hers grudgingly. Rex is not all bad anymore, it went better this morning than last morning I think. His ear drops aren’t bad, his anti-inflamatory pills can be crushed and hidden in food (chompchomp*chomp*), […]

We took the new kitten into the vet on Saturday, as well as Rex. We too her (“Patches”? maybe, undecided if that’s a good name) in to get her sneezing checked out and basically just make sure that she was in good shape. I wanted to get Rex’s eye looked at again to see if

Well, I’ve waited far too long to post this, and let the cat out of the bag so to speak, so here you go. We got another kitten. Yup, really. Just to disway the nay-sayers, no, it wasn’t planned, no we’re not crazy, yes, we did “have” to, yes, that makes four, yes, it‘s starting

When batting a large, pissed off flying creature with a stinger out of the air, be sure you know where it lands! Alerted by Zoon’s cries of “there’s a bug! there’s a bug!” (she has a very distinctive “bug alert” noise she makes… little mews closely spaced, kind of a “meh! meh! meh!” noise), I

So while I’m waiting for WhtDragon to arrive to go over to Yohimbe’s to work on this VB project from hell (which I’m told, was eventually “fixed” by saying “screw the vb” and writing it in Perl), I take the garbage out. On the way out I hear cat yowls, and find, not to much

Morning Cat Story (because I’m bored)… Woke up this morning around 8:something hearing what I swore was the cats closing and locking us into the bedroom. I got up and found that the door was indeed closed, but not all the way. On top of the bedroom door stood a very cute, but un-nerved, grey
