The new 3 month old pup is learning I won't allow her in the kitchen. She's very smart! She has already learned Sit, Lay down, Paw, Dance, Over (step over a hurdle), Come Get It (crawl on her belly), Mat (which means sit on her little mat/towel that I use as "her spot" for training), and how to climb the front steps she was previously terrified of. She's going to make a great nursing home dog.
My other middle aged furbaby is not amused. She's quite the snob.

My poor 5 year old furbaby got very sick starting at 5am. I got her to the vet where she got sick again. After $300 she's at home resting. Poor baby girl had a hard day.

Loki was relentless until I gave him some lettuce. He loves it. Gracie has been persistent about scenting my sliding keyboard tray today. No, this is not an everyday thing for her.
Why, yes...I do have strange cats. |

Well.. it appears that I have 2 sick cats. One appears to have a UTI so I have made an appointment to take him in to have that confirmed. The other has been throwing up. However, upon checking with My sister (who I got the second cat from) apparently this is a "norm" for him .. as he tends to have a nervous tummy of sorts. This might be true - but to be on the safe side I am going to take him in when I take My other cat in - and have him checked out just to be sure.
I will also say - neither of these "issues" stops either of them from being the crazy - running at full tilt - I want my snacks when I want them - cats that they are! I love them to death - crazy critters! |

They are all sleeping and snoring after their breakfast. They are worn out from yesterday's travels and Saturday's wonderful day at Maggie Valley VW show.

Found out today that Brittany has a parasite, giardia. Worse, it can be transferred to people. Dealing with it is going to be a whole big thing - meds for 7 or 10 days (I forget which), during and after which everything has to be cleaned, Covid-style, including the area of the yard where she poops. Constant handwashing. I can't bear to crate her for that long, so I'm limiting her to her crate, the kitchen, and the hallway in between. I have plenty of baby gates, so no problem there. I'm going to put antiseptic wipes in every room.
Poor sick baby. I can't believe the shelter gave her to me in this shape. Well, maybe I can.

I remember your ordeal with Oliver. It was heartbreaking. Thanks for your good wishes, I'm going to do my best to make sure everyone around here stays/gets well.

I stood outside in the rain from 11 p.m. to midnight, waiting for Brittany to poop. (She has to go in a different area of the yard now that she's taking this medication for giardia.) She kept refusing and trying to head in the direction where she usually goes. But I was determined to win!
I lost. She is now locked in the kitchen, which will be easier for me to clean up than her crate if she has an accident. I'll go downstairs in about an hour and try taking her out again.

They apparently raised some Hell because the smaller cat tree was knocked over on the ground when I came home from work.

Brittany is all tuckered out after shredding a paper plate and a handful of paper towels.

Poor Brittany is recuperating after her first heartworm injection of arsenic. She's moaning and groaning like she feels terrible - and I'm sure she does. It was a deep injection in her hip muscle. They gave me some pills for her pain, but they don't seem to have kicked in yet. And unfortunately, she has to go through it all over again tomorrow.
She won't take treats, so I had to pill her the old fashioned way. She was a trooper about that, though, I've never had such an easy time pilling a dog. They assured me at the vet that she will be fine. I really, really hope so.

I love this time of year with my Moondoggy. My little granddaughters were over today and we’re sitting on the couch. Moon went and laid on the floor right in between the two of them and kept nudging their toes so that they would rub her with their feet. She loves those girls so much, and they love her equally back! It was such a wistful moment.

This morning, before her trip to the vet, she seemed pretty fine. She ate and pottied as usual, and seemed happy. But now she is moaning and groaning again, although not as loudly as yesterday. I guess because she already had three doses of pain medication in her she was a little more prepared for today's shot. Poor thing, she's tearing my heart out.

Brittany ate well, as usual.
Which leads to what I did today, actually. I'm looking for a good dog food for her which is grain free, or at least only has a little grain, high in protein, all the required vitamins and minerals, etc. Pedigree just isn't going to cut it. Blue Buffalo apparently has had lots of law suits because their dog food isn't all they say it is. I found a freeze dried one that is perfect, Dr. Something's, but it's way too expensive. Brittany weighs almost 60 lbs. and eats about 4 cups of dog food a day, and I just can't afford almost $100 for about 7 pounds of food. (I admit, I got an incredible one time deal on it, so I did get it and I've been using it to supplement the bag of Pedigree I bought her. But I can't afford the regular price.) I found one called Taste of the Wild. It's grain free, made in the USA, and seems to meet most of my wishlist. But I've never heard of it before. Has anyone here ever tried it? Or do you have anything else you'd recommend?

After being on the lamb for 4 days, I finially caught new kitty, Holly. It was raining all day Saturday and wherever she was hiding, there was no food. It was easy to coax her out with food yesterday.
She will loose that runaway feeling when she gets fixed next week! My Jellybean so wants to be her friend. They are getting closer but the hissing is still happening. Patience.

I haven't used Taste of the Wild but the reviews on Chewy.com are really positive. It can't hurt to try it as long as it's worked into her current feeding routine gradually. No upset tummies! Earlier, Gracie caught a case of the zoomies and Loki is doing his ninja impersonation on the back of the sofa (he's the same color as the sofa when the room has low lighting and is spread flat as a pancake across the top). |
