thankful Thursday

First - mom got her laptop back!!! Now all she has to do is find the time to get all her settings replaced and software reinstalled. It took her 40 minutes just to get hooked back up to the wi-fi. She is VERY not happy with the tech company.

~~~~~~~~~~
Second - we have a winner in the Fresh Wave contest. We sent an email to them (check your spam please - it will come from RandomFelines)....if we don't hear from them in 48 hours, we will pick someone else.

The kittens are all doing well. The office where mom works closed early on Tuesday (due to weather), so mom was home working on the above mentioned wi-fi issue when a kitten let out this blood curdling HOWL! Mom freaked out and was sure it was Avignon. She grabbed the kitten and it was....Lyon. He had been messing with his neuter incision (from over a week ago) and it had opened up and was swollen (say it with us people - OUCH!). Mom called the rescue v-e-t...they were thankfully slow...and got him down there and they cleaned him up and gave mom some antibiotics and pain killer for him. Mom took along Avignon and the vet looked at her too - her second abscess site is looking good. Still a little swollen but the v-e-t lady said there is nothing she can feel adhered to the abdominal wall, so it isn't a hernia. Keep your fingers and paws crossed Av can be spayed next Monday.

Mom did hear from the rescue - the one v-e-t had cultured Av's second abscess. And it is....a common strep bacteria. So the meds she is on should clear it up but it seems odd as to why it keeps showing up and how she got it.

Between that and Lyon's occasional sneezing, mom has made both the ninjas swear to keep their cooties to themselves and don't even THINK about giving something to their sister...... or ELSE!

Calais is still set to head to her forever home this weekend. There has been a hiccup in the transport but we are hoping it all gets ironed out. There are a couple of plans in place right now. Mom promised Miss Dee she would get her kitten and mom won't back down from that.

  2. After all the troubles, it's good that Calais's new home is still lined up. I didn't see that there were two cats in the picture until I read Hannah and Lucy's comment.
