Happy Birthday to Oliver yesterday! He arrived here on 3/20/09. He is now 9 years old. What a handsome boy he is. He's our gold/white long hair Covie boy. When he arrived, he had many wounds--they appeared to be bite wounds. Now he enjoys a life of leisure! Birthday chicken for everyone!

Another Birthday! Sea Turtle, our beautiful oldster torti is now 19 years old! Wow--she looks and acts great! She came to us from Crawford Co. Humane Society 7/16/15. It seems like she's been here forever. She visits the Main Area a couple times a week. Her favorite place is either in front Thumper's Room or the Paw Mart store. We are sure of her age from her previous family. On her last physical, all was good!
We have two cats at the vets today. Little Makalah Sue and Gia both made the ride there today. Gia will have her physical and her spay. Malalah Sue will probably have her enucleation. A physical first of course for her. We cancelled her spay and substituted Gia. I'd like to get her a more built up before her spay. We decided we didn't want to do both surgeries on the same day for her. Each case is different. I just feel like that eye is causing discomfort and believe she will feel better with it's removal. Dr. Darcy will fill us in with details later today on both cats.
Rooney is on the catwalk watching outside. We have the windows open! So nice to feel that spring air. Bruno has grown to be such a big boy. His fur is so soft and filled in now. Remember when he first came in? Much of his fur was missing. He loves to have his chin rubbed. Joey has resumed his spot in the window sill in the Kitty Campus Room--his view point of the parking lot! The Covies have sure been out in their Playground area now--they love it. It's so nice to see them running and climbing out there. I even saw Jackson sprinting across the grass! I was thrilled two nights ago to see PB. He isn't here often but when he does show up we always feed him. He looks great! Here's his picture!
