We have "the" appointment


So they are going to be neutered a week from tomorrow.  Then they'll stay with me for a few days, and go up for adoption the 22nd.  Sad it is coming to a close, but happy that it will be a little longer then I expected.

  1. Purrs to them for a normal and quick recovery!

    Also, mega-purrs and purrayers for Ollie. We hope that when it's his time that he has a gentle and quick passing to the Bridge.

    (((Hugs))) and Light to you! The mom has lost only one adoptee, her first (blood clot, sudden and unexpected) and dreads having to make *the decision* when the time comes.

  2. Thanks for the link, Connie! I've actually had that site bookmarked for a long time.

    None of my cats gets a high kibble diet -- Annie prefers canned to dry anyway, which is good. And the boys already are at high risk for crystals, so they get mostly canned too. I add water to all of it, every day. I don't feed raw, not because I disagree with it -- quite the contrary -- but because I'm not tough enough to starve them to get them on it, as a former co-worker of mine did. Mine cats don't even like human food.

    So I compromise and try to stay away from grains, especially corn/soy/wheat. Nicki gets diarrhea if he doesn't get any fibre, though, or if the food is too rich, and I've been trying various premium grain-free foods for almost 4 years. Most they all refuse to touch, but a few they'll nibble at. I've learned that the best food in the world won't do any good if the cat won't eat it. So I compromise -- a mix of better-than-average to really good food and hope for the best!

  3. Awww, I imagine it is always hard to say goodbye. I hope their surgeries go well and they recover with little trouble.

    Where (which state/area) do you live, Connie? I've fallen in love with Peter. :)
