Our grandma is doing much better and we hope that she will be heading home today. The first couple of days were the worst, but she is up and walking around more and that will help. Plan at this point is home Saturday. She can get up but still needs to work on walking the halls.

Do you guys know Romeo the Cat? We are featured today on his website as a multi-cat family!!

Cod help us - the v-e-t showed up here for Halloween. We was TRICKED!!!! (and got no treats) Ivy, Tim and Tom were due for vaccines and mom has Maestro get the "old man" check every 6 months. Maestro was good - he even gained about 1/2 pound since this spring. YEAH!! Tim has lost about a pound...and need his teeth cleaned pretty bad. Mom had the v-e-t draw some blood and will make an appointment with a local clinic to get the teeth cleaning appointment (our vet is mobile and doesn't do surgery). Tommy gained about 1/2 pound and is doing well. And then there was the princess.....man was she crabby. There was some screaming and bad werds (from Ivy, not the v-e-t). And - she has gained about a pound since last year. Which puts her at about 12 pounds. Ugh..... so mom is gonna have to do some figuring as to how to make sure Mo and Maestro get enough to eat and Ivy can't eat EVERYTHING IN SIGHT!!!

Bourbon was a lot of help with the v-e-t. He moved her stuff, tried to chew on her stethascope and walked over her computer keyboard to reset a couple of things. He finally got thrown in baby jail with the kittens (cause Ivy was in the bathroom) and....he can get out. It took him about 10 minutes to figure it out, but once he did mom knew she was in trouble. The nice part is that Dr T was pretty charmed by the boy. She isn't in the market right now as she has a REALLY old cat, but maybe someday (and mom said "if you know anyone")..... :)

Glad to hear your grandma is doing better.
ReplyDeleteThe vet showing up at your HOUSE???
Now, that's creepy,lol!
Have a good weekend!
Tom
Glad Grandma is doing better and will be home soon.
ReplyDeleteMust be so nice to have a mobile vet and not have to pack everyone up for a drive to the vet!
Awww beautiful Bourbon!! What a star!!
ReplyDeleteContinued healing hugs for grandma! take care
x
We're very glad your grandma is improving!
ReplyDeleteWe think a mobile vet is a great idea, wish we had the option in our area, at least for routine things. The whole PTU/taxi thing just makes the ordeal that much worse!
Oh that was not a nice trick to play on you! The Vet? Seriously?!?! I am glad your Grandma is doing better.
ReplyDeleteMaybe the Vet will take you on as an apprentice Bourbon.
ReplyDeleteLuv Hannah and Lucy xx xx
I love knowing your Grandma is getting so much better. So is my human brother. They will be all brand new togethers! xoxox
ReplyDeleteI am nominating you for an award. Please come see me and get your awardie. xox
That is great that Grandma is doing so well. Good news.
ReplyDeleteSounds like the kitties are all doing pretty good. Bourbon, good job getting to know the vet. That would be such a good home for you.
Hope all have a good week end.
Good news about Grandma.
ReplyDeleteI still think Bourbon is stayin' with you guys...
We came by cause we read about you in Romeo's post. How neat - foster failures. hehehe
ReplyDeleteThe vet came by for Halloween? We hope you sent him packing with a trick. Maybe some pee in his little black bag?
Mommy has been toying with the thought of getting a vet to come to the house. She has the ridiculous fear of the PTUs breaking under our weight and then having us escape...Well, not too ridiculous a fear as that was precisely what happened with Meow-Me on the day she being taken in for her spay....
ReplyDeleteWe think your vet needs an assistant. :D
At least the vet came to YOU instead of the other way around. I hate those trips to the clinic.
ReplyDeletePaws up for your grandmother! Glad to hear she is getting better.
That has got to be the worst Halloween, EVAR!!! Your Mom plays some pretty dirty tricks, we tell you what.
ReplyDeleteBourbon was clever to show what a great veterinary assistant he would make.
ReplyDeleteOh man, that was a trick that your v-e-t played on you!!
ReplyDeleteWe're glad your grandma is doing better.
Oh man, that was a trick that your v-e-t played on you!!
ReplyDeleteWe're glad your grandma is doing better.
Our Lady loves the idea of mobile vet, but we don't! Have a great weekend. Lee and Phod
ReplyDeleteWow! You have the best-decorated eating place there. I wish we had a mobile vet, too.
ReplyDeleteApart from the v-e-t (how appropriate on Halloween!), I'm glad to hear all new are rather good news!
ReplyDeletePurrs
Good to hear Grandma is doing better.
ReplyDeleteYuck, v e t in your own home, that's downright scary. We don't blame Ivy, we would have used bad werds too!
That's a boy Bourbon, you'll find a forever home soon with all that charm.
