A busy and very fun day yesterday! We had Peggy's (volunteer) card birthday party on 12:30. She was so very surprised. She received so many cards. I do believe our Peggy was a bit overwhelmed! She loved it and asked me to pass on a huge thank you to all that helped her celebrate her day. Speaking of birthdays, today is Ada Jane's 17th birthday. Wow! We'll give her lots of hugs and kisses today.
Yesterday Tweeny and Sari went to the vet's. Tweeny had an x-ray of her leg that she's been limping on. It's improved alot this week, but wanted to make double sure all was well, which it was. Her bones, joints, shoulder, growth plates (remember, she's still a kitty), and her nerves all looked good. So, we'll continue with 1 more day of cage rest and soreness pills, then she'll be sprung to be out and about. Sari went for a dental. She had her teeth scaled and 4 teeth removed--2 little incisors and 2 molars. She scarfed down 2 tubs of FF Appetizers last night! Her stool sample was also negative. Now she'll have nice clean teeth to go to her new home this weekend.
Saturday should be a busy day with lots of visitors. We love visitors! We took in a new young male cat yesterday. He appears to be a ragdoll (lavender). He is already neutered and ever so nice. He arrived with a large amount of fleas. A capstar and bath took care of that. He's been tested (negative for heartworm, FIV and leukemia), wormed and vaccinated already. He has a name! It is Niven which means Little Saint. This name was suggested by Hencass! A really handsome fella with crystal blue eyes.

A webcam friend sent this to me yesterday that I just love. "Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind". These great words were spoken by Dr. Seuss!
