weekend report

First some sad news: Rome passed away. We kind of knew it was coming, but losing any baby is hard. London is still pretty snotty but he is eating so mom is just keeping a close eye on him. We appreciate your purrs and all the love you send us and ALL our fosters.
~~~~~~~~~~~

Mom spent some time catching up around here. She was just catching up after being gone for Blog Paws and then was gone for 4 days again to spend time with her parents. Grandpa is feeling a little better but still in the hospital while they try to figure out some intestinal issues. He was running a high fever and that is gone but they want to keep him close at hand until they can figure everything out. Mom got groceries, did some laundry and ran the evil dyson.
~~~~~~~~~~~

And then Saturday mom spent some time with this sweet girl. This is Diane. She and her buddy Jack were found running loose in the woods in PA....both skinny, not fixed and having run into a porcupine. They were brought to Ohio for vetting. Jack is still looking for a long term foster, but Diane moved back to PA this weekend into her long term foster until she is adopted. She was great in the car....mom said the weather was pretty bad (the remnants of tropical storm Bill blew through here) but when the rain finally stopped for a bit mom cracked open the window and Diane sat with her nose up catching the breeze. Gotta love those scent hounds.

Fiesta kitten news: Queso, Blanco and Taquito are up at the adoption center looking for their homes. They were spayed/neutered on Wednesday and have their shots, so it was time for them to make their way up there. Mom will get their info up on Petfinder as well, but we suspect they won't be there long. Tostada and Salsa go for surgery tomorrow, so they will go to the adoption center on Tuesday.

We hope you all had a great relaxing weekend. Once mom got her chores out of the way, she parked in her chair and did some reading so everyone tried to get some lap time in as well.

  8. Poor Rome. He didn't have much of a chance. What chance he did have was given by you. Thank you. Godspeed, Rome.

  14. We're so sorry to hear about Rome. That's so hard. We hope that London feels better soon... and that your grandpa continues to feel better, too!

    We aren't supposed to tell you that the head peep asked why you aren't saving Salsa for her. She would enjoy that a lot more than we would! We're sure that all of those kittens will charm their way into the hearts of new families soon.

    We're glad your mom was able to help with Diane and Jack. And good luck to the Fiesta kitties. We know they will all find great homes. Though the mom still wants Salsa...but we say no.
