Then Dr. Darcy did some physicals.
Bella-- had her yearly physical--all is well.
Doce--had his poor bum looked at. We're going to add one more med to his treatment and see if we can get this diarrhea stopped again. Other than that, he looks awesome!
Gallant--very impressed with his healing of his wound. Will continue what we're doing.
Paddy Purr--good physical. Shows a 3/6 heart murmur
Pania--left eye is swelling again. Will put her back on a certain eye drop and do it twice a day.
Joline--what a wonderful girl. We both determined she is about 9 years old. She had a very loose tooth so that was pulled. We will continue her special antibiotics for her mouth problems. Other than that, her physical was good.
Many thanks to Dr. Darcy, Bonnie, Lynnette and Sue for helping with the surgeries. Our next surgery date is 6/1.
Little BlackJack is doing good. His cold appears to be gone. Today he has been meeting a few little kitty friends. The 5 kitties that are in Thumper's Room are doing wonderful! They are still being syringe fed but today started eating a little by themselves from the plate! Doce has been playing with them in Thumper's Room. He purrs and they purr back at him--so sweet. And good news today--little Bix finally started eating by himself. Such good news! They are so so tiny yet, but they can climb out of their pen the second the door is opened!
We had BOXES last night. Thank you very much for helping the rescue center.

Putter asked to come out of the house yesterday. The door was opened, he came out, sat on the middle of the floor, walked to the other door and went back in! Made me laugh! The construction guy was here yesterday. Dion put up two panels of the fiber wall boards and also hung four of the lights in the Mail Room. More progress!
All is fine here. Kitties are happy and playing, as are the cats too. Have a wonderful Mother's Day.
Haylow--what a really nice young cat. She's still looking for a home.
