Today Catstock officially starts!
These are the things that will happen today: 2-3 big tents will arrive, farmyard completely gone over again for cleanliness, 2 porta pots arrive,visitors start arriving, fresh movie popcorn arrive, the parking situation figured out, bleachers will be set up and most importantly, Mike and Barbara will arrive! Remember, tonight at 6:30 is the mini-concert on our kitty cam. It's for YOU from FFRC. Mike will sing a few songs just for our chatters and lurkers! Catstock----here we come! There's been so many people involved with the preparation of Catstock--thank you ever so much.
Connie K has even put ribbons in Millie (the donkey) and Georgia (the gold/red horse) manes. They look so sweet! While cleaning out the goat pen yesterday, we found a huge underground wasp den in their shed. Wow--that was not fun. We got it all taken care of with only 1 person getting stung once. The chickens have discovered they can get on the stage (for the concert)--we have to talk them into not doing that tomorrow night!
Cassidy is sleeping on my desk. He looks so very peaceful. His sutures are out and his surgical area looks good. Such a wonderful cat. We are treating Big Al twice daily--antibiotics and drops in his ears and ointment on his sutures. Tenzin is getting antibiotics twice daily as well as soreness meds and ointment put on his wound 3 times daily. Pizazz is getting exercise treatments thruout the day. He's fussy about it at times, but he's pretty tolerant. I do believe we have a bit of movement in his right rear leg. He's also had Dr. Bill treat him 4 times already, with more treatments coming. He's already had 1 water treatment this morning.
We had BOXES last night! Many many thanks for the supplies. It's so wonderful to have our supplies replenished. Remember, tonight, instead of boxes is the Mini-Catstock-Concert! No boxes for Saturday or Sunday night, but we'll be back Monday night!
