Help! Rescue me from Ginseng! I'm kidding, really! He's such a love and a velcro boy. He has the ability to sit on the floor and leap onto my back, in one smooth motion! He also loves to lay on the floor in front of the shop vac nozzle and let you push him around on the floor. What a boy!
We have surgery dates made. Pedra will go on August 7th for her spay. Her mama Val will come that day to hold her and comfort her after her surgery. Then she will stay overnight so we can make sure that Pedra is ready to travel the next day, to her new home. Of course, Kooper will also be going with them. Janak, his new mama, will "visit" him thru Val.
We have the surgery date for Bravo. It's August 15--2 weeks away. I weighed him yesterday and he is up to 2.05. He's a growing boy! He just came in the office a bit ago, and I called him in that voice he likes and gets so excited about. He comes scooting across to me as fast as he could. What a smile he brings to our faces to see him so happy!
Derecho has been here in the office three times, then he goes back to the main area and here he comes again, back to the office! He's so wobbly, but a very very determined kitty.
Asha is watching the birds outside--she's such a contented cat. She so loves to be groomed and to give head butts. I showed her picture last night on the cam, of when she first arrived. It's hard to believe it's the same cat. I also showed the pictures of when Putter first arrived--so sad. I remember thinking that night that he may not survive. But, what a magnificent boy he is now!
Today is Paddy Cake and Paddy Purr's birthday! They are now two. Tomorrow is Badu and Hank's birthday! So...today we will have a birthday cake for us humans and the cats will have their pet-friendly ice cream! We will show the cake at 10 am, our time.
Our visitors, Pam and Rich will be leaving today to head back to Colorado with Queenie with them! I've also heard from the family that adopted Mercy and Floria and they love them! All is good.
We had BOXES last night! I am ever so grateful for the support.
