Energy is good, breathing is even and light, playfulness is normal, appetite is strong, and she also took some quality naps to recover from her all-nighter on Thursday. She is on 1 pill a day for now (5mg prednisolone) and we have an appointment at her regular vet Monday morning for a follow up. </span></p><div><span style="background-color: white; color: #192025; font-family: Nunito, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space-collapse: preserve-breaks;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="background-color: white; color: #192025; font-family: Nunito, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space-collapse: preserve-breaks;">I want to take a picture of her cute little fur boots (they shaved both ankles all the way around) but she is always on the move when I reach for the camera. </span></div><div><span style="background-color: white; color: #192025; font-family: Nunito, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space-collapse: preserve-breaks;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="background-color: white; color: #192025; font-family: Nunito, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space-collapse: preserve-breaks;">Gussie (the old man who had dental surgery) is also doing well and keeping the young'uns in line with his grouchy paw of justice.</span></div><div><span style="background-color: white; color: #192025; font-family: Nunito, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space-collapse: preserve-breaks;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="background-color: white; color: #192025; font-family: Nunito, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space-collapse: preserve-breaks;">Thank you all for your well wishes and support.</span></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35072592.post-73412242646147914452023-11-16T23:46:00.000-08:002023-11-16T23:46:57.589-08:00Difficult Times<p>Hello kitten fans, I hope you and your furry family members are all doing well. The original "fountain pen" kittens and mama are hale and hearty. However, in the past 10 weeks some of the other cats have had health issues. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiR-I0tSE5g9SyTn55yADxnbgsbaz-khv9sp6nnk7qEa_BrrmmEJfYePXdQCVUH_34wqYEBSCdtNKbLQqAWkZHb24J_FI6QX2zHLnxLtH6LmkxCCcoHFRmHMAceCt3-UMLV_5zxT03KpsUU8mh3qj8bbL-0uzgzRehCMBhZlD-rEgK0hXv3et8IrQ/s1548/Tuppy%20&%20Gussie.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="595" data-original-width="1548" height="123" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiR-I0tSE5g9SyTn55yADxnbgsbaz-khv9sp6nnk7qEa_BrrmmEJfYePXdQCVUH_34wqYEBSCdtNKbLQqAWkZHb24J_FI6QX2zHLnxLtH6LmkxCCcoHFRmHMAceCt3-UMLV_5zxT03KpsUU8mh3qj8bbL-0uzgzRehCMBhZlD-rEgK0hXv3et8IrQ/s320/Tuppy%20&%20Gussie.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><p>Darling Tuppy (14 years old, red tabby) started to look "not right" at the end of August and went in for a checkup at the beginning of September. He was diagnosed with gallstones and despite our best efforts over the next several weeks, he never recovered. It was terrible to lose such a sweet, calm, *orange* boy. </p><p>Immediately after that, Gussie (14 years old, red & white tabby), his brother, started losing weight. He was having a pancreatitis attack and also needed several bad teeth removed. With medication, love and tenderness we pulled him back from the brink and also got him cleared for the dental surgery. He was a risky candidate who already has thyroid issues and heart failure (under control with meds). He is recovering well and putting weight on again. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8gK7aqpU-w2rBQvK5S0TnHMp-KAbFTk3ADfCihae24VAezoqkvcJevw9p3hiKAHcWaXa_SZ1qwD3P85okYj5s0rbWF93C4yd5q3GGvQQY0gWbJT634V4HgzChMZWu1tkYfan6pmJd6QknMtyw22wcYr9hio3YJL5kTl1E6k7Kvjke3UcL2foKNw/s1024/Jojo%2009.2023.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="700" data-original-width="1024" height="219" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8gK7aqpU-w2rBQvK5S0TnHMp-KAbFTk3ADfCihae24VAezoqkvcJevw9p3hiKAHcWaXa_SZ1qwD3P85okYj5s0rbWF93C4yd5q3GGvQQY0gWbJT634V4HgzChMZWu1tkYfan6pmJd6QknMtyw22wcYr9hio3YJL5kTl1E6k7Kvjke3UcL2foKNw/s320/Jojo%2009.2023.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><p>Then tonight, barely three weeks after Gussie's surgery, wee Jojo and I rushed to the ER vet because she suddenly had a lot of coughing and labored breathing. She is being kept overnight in the oxygen condo while they run tests and also do some x-rays to find out what is going on. It could be asthma, it could be heart failure, it could be allergies. I hope it is something manageable. </p><p>I am thankful for the mojo of all the kitten supporters and that I have had room on the care credit card to approve excellent vet care for these furry family members. However, the bills passed $7,000 tonight, and surely there will be follow up care needed for Jojo at our regular vet going forward. I know times are tough with inflation, year end expenses, and family celebrations for the holidays, but we would be so grateful for any support right now. </p><p>Thank you for your kind thoughts and be sure to kiss your pets on the head for us tonight. </p>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35072592.post-34566408544949244012022-08-27T11:54:00.001-07:002022-08-27T11:54:04.383-07:00Wrassle-mania! <p> The kittens are 2 weeks old today and in the last 30 minutes they realized they are Kittens and not larval cats and are roiling about in the nestbox. </p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhK4VbnCRhQp6-swtOBkp4uENf13AU3ifFuIUzFhkH1zYBj-HjYeyCrshe8SmR8GdHDNUS0LbmtMtDioP5nABGwvBsqX39ff5HRO3GgvtWygzlKODts2dV46ZHp29aPNtmiOLY6Z-jeY7qO7snHwEZZDJhJnjD6vhj_wcrraJpA8bZvmQP4KIs/s1920/SnapShot-20220827_114357.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1080" data-original-width="1920" height="180" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhK4VbnCRhQp6-swtOBkp4uENf13AU3ifFuIUzFhkH1zYBj-HjYeyCrshe8SmR8GdHDNUS0LbmtMtDioP5nABGwvBsqX39ff5HRO3GgvtWygzlKODts2dV46ZHp29aPNtmiOLY6Z-jeY7qO7snHwEZZDJhJnjD6vhj_wcrraJpA8bZvmQP4KIs/s320/SnapShot-20220827_114357.jpg" width="320" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">wrasslin'</td></tr></tbody></table><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEho3wB0wsDRqYFCcDmD3ytzn2gHsK9ZUw7XTD4BILgJRLKjo-SE3LQYNX2cPvmVBLhagtTdk8DPwb-iFmVyMcRpm1CH_QDiyzdmuYknSZsK98faOsu5Yr23GOXVAeizV9j-LwU-Klu0RKi3cL3SiWdo7zB8Cn77yTOyhp2iQNLPaohIYiX5rMk/s1920/SnapShot-20220827_114513.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1080" data-original-width="1920" height="180" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEho3wB0wsDRqYFCcDmD3ytzn2gHsK9ZUw7XTD4BILgJRLKjo-SE3LQYNX2cPvmVBLhagtTdk8DPwb-iFmVyMcRpm1CH_QDiyzdmuYknSZsK98faOsu5Yr23GOXVAeizV9j-LwU-Klu0RKi3cL3SiWdo7zB8Cn77yTOyhp2iQNLPaohIYiX5rMk/s320/SnapShot-20220827_114513.jpg" width="320" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Kaweco is looking up and wondering if there is life outside the nestbox</td><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><br /></td></tr></tbody></table><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj6xQQ1pnkrXypCkUmsAIC1E6NkhCV0epfGod17dtCGeRXx1-DREx-eDW4PTZ4snFwsQHZl2LU4HFnT17VjxdyiT8_3C8_fi-g2lb3aDBuM801wTxCcBTzSqtGL3pe8F9iNvZAK1xbYtnMMFsenEALM9fwy1QqRodIawTlsINbPnER864R-css/s1920/SnapShot-20220827_114644.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1080" data-original-width="1920" height="180" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj6xQQ1pnkrXypCkUmsAIC1E6NkhCV0epfGod17dtCGeRXx1-DREx-eDW4PTZ4snFwsQHZl2LU4HFnT17VjxdyiT8_3C8_fi-g2lb3aDBuM801wTxCcBTzSqtGL3pe8F9iNvZAK1xbYtnMMFsenEALM9fwy1QqRodIawTlsINbPnER864R-css/s320/SnapShot-20220827_114644.jpg" width="320" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">everbody rumble!<br /></td></tr></tbody></table><br /><p>The kitten cam is still running great (as you can see).

I don't think I have the dedication, but I would like to get some things finished so I can enjoy looking at them instead of working on them.<br />
<br />
Yesterday I fluffed the cross stitch stash and was flabbergasted at the amount of patterns I have in progress or standing by. Almost all are from 1987-2001 or so.<br />

Currently I am listening for the cat trap to go off, I really need to get the pregnant garage cat safely into the house. I am also organizing what Ember needs for her big trip: first a 8 hour drive to Tucson then a long plane flight to Michigan. Today I picked up her harness. Pretty sure it will be unpopular. <br />
<br />
Holly stuffed herself on dog food and is napping contentedly by the desk.<br />
<br />
I am drinking some delicious wine and just generally relaxing after a day of being at work. It's really slow right now but somehow that doesn't make it more fun. <br />
<br />
I have been knitting on a sock, number two of the pair, in fact. No progress on my real projects but it's nice to have wool in my hands again.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35072592.post-46449711534642403152018-01-25T18:08:00.002-08:002018-01-25T18:08:27.573-08:00Made of FireMy little Ember girl is moving closer to her new home.

At long, miserable last I finished the Suramar quests and Broken Shore rep to get flying in Legion. Then I turned my attention to the class mount project and that only took a half dozen very quick quests. Now I am the proud owner of a lovely flying horsey. <br />

Somehow it turns out that when you play, you make progress. I also wrapped up a raid quest I've had forever and got a cute new outfit. Now it's time to get my 110 hunter her flying mount.<br />
<br />
No new progress on the white blanket but I am cranking out some purple / gray socks during phone calls at work. The yarn was for a shawl but I wasn't making progress and it wasn't that attractive so I ripped it back a few months ago. I like the new project much better and I might be able to make some matching accessories.<br />

I finished the yellow socks, I worked on the white blanket, I started some purple / gray striped socks and today I finally finished the last of the achievements to unlock flying in Legion in World of Warcraft. It's been a long row to hoe on that last one. Next goal is getting my class hall mount, don't let me forget.<br />

Little Stilton Cheesewright wasn't feeling so hot last week but we dropped some money at the vet and he is right as rain now. Sleeping on my lap under the desk, in fact. I think he was trying to tell me it's bedtime. He is right.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35072592.post-34277245225187911092018-01-09T19:22:00.005-08:002018-01-09T19:22:53.304-08:00Proper PlanningSomehow I planned so well that I left all my knitting projects in the car but I am in the house for the night. Whatever shall I do? <br />
<br />
Oh, right, the baby blanket for the baby born last September. It's cool and rainy again today, it will only take a few weeks to finish and I *think* I know right where it is.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35072592.post-51332050304303737942018-01-07T19:42:00.001-08:002018-01-07T19:43:29.475-08:00Fillin' StiltonThe current foster kitten - Stilton Cheesewright - was off his feed the last few days. Happily I found a case of grocery store level cat food (Fancy Feast) and he has been eating all day to make up for lost time. Sorry, Nature's Balance, you are just too wholesome. He is back to swatting me on the nose at 4 AM and climbing up my leg like it's a cat tree. Perhaps I have succeeded too well.<br />

I also knit half a heel on the yellow socks. I mean to knit more but was overcome by the power of napping. I think I can finish it before bedtime though.<br />

I finished entering all the good yarn into Ravelry and am starting the year with 32,000 yards (18 miles). There is other yarn around, I'm sure, and I didn't count any of the weaving yarn, but it is enough to justify cold sheeping this year. Now I just need to knit down that total!<br />
<br />
I didn't really get anything knocked off my to-do list but I did cook at home only and that was satisfying. A pet food order was delivered; I got smart and ordered 2 bags of cat food so I'm not stuck paying full price (or overprice) again at the last minute. I just need to get cat litter on autoship and I'll never have to leave the house again.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35072592.post-56081280490369906172018-01-03T18:43:00.002-08:002018-01-03T18:43:35.962-08:00Sock-sessThe yellow socks are coming right along.

<br />
I do want to get more knitting in, though. I've got oodles of patterns and miles of yarn but also feel like I've got all the knitted items I need. To warm up I fluffed the stash on Saturday. This is most of the "good" yarn; there is another tub of bits and bobs and partial skeins.<br />

I signed up for "cold sheep 2018". The idea of more yarn makes me feel a little ill.<br />
