we got da funk....

In case mom's life wasn't interesting enough, the pepper boys were acting kind of funky, so they got to take a trip to the v-e-t yesterday....


Jalapeno charmed the vet - she has a thing for tuxies. He was actually the one acting the worst over the weekend and had a fever at the office. The other two boys didn't have a fever, but Serrano was acting funky. No real diagnosis - just watch them and make sure they are eating.

Everyone got out to play a little and the tech had put some catnip on the floor for Mist - who ignored it. Poblano on the other hand managed to get a minor contact high.

Mom had the v-e-t check Mist's ears and she has a yeast infection so she is getting treated 2x per day for the next 5 days.

Mom is treating Emma for ringworm - just in case. Other than the spot on her ear, she is running around like a nut. She has gotten more and more active in the last week or so - guess finally weighing over 2 pounds makes a difference. And even if that what it is, it is treatable......

Ahhhh the life of rescue - snot, weird fever, itchy ears and a fungus among us. Oh well - at least everyone is cute. :)

  1. I do the same thing when the cats don't seem right, I haul them in to the vet only to be told to watch them and make sure they keep eating! Better safe than sorry I say.

  6. LOL.. don't you just hate that diagnosis of "watch and make sure they eat".. like you would do anything else..

    Your life is starting to sound a bit like mine, but if you could keep the ringworm to yourself I'd REALLY appreciate it *knock wood* I've never had it at the house..

  8. At our house, too, funk means vet trip. Like you say, better safe than sorry...especially with wee ones and seniors! White Dog woos that every one is in full health by the weekend.

  11. Oh how dear they look. Mommy said she'd love to visit bunches of kitties but I told her not to get any wise ideas about bringing them home!!!
