We have names for these 4 babies, now known as the Rat Pack, since they were born in the big rat bed! The male orange tiger is Deano (Dean Martin), beige male is Frank (Frank Sinatra), beige male is Sammy (Sammy Davis Jr.) and the female brown/torti is Monroe (Marilyn Monroe). They weighed in on birth date at 3 ounces, which is normal.
Buck has most of our wall hangings, pictures and signs on the walls now. He's working on the cat walks this afternoon. It all looks so very nice! I can't wait for all the cat walks to be up so the cats can run around above us!

I would like to give an update on Barin. We heard back from the preliminary cardiologist that went over Barin's heart x-ray and scan. It is felt that there is a large abnormal vessel in the area of the heart base. This could be a large pulmonary artery but not certain yet. Would suggest having a cardiologist exam for an echo, to know exact diagnosis or prognosis or if any meds can be used. It could possibly cause a shortened life span. Could also cause congestive heart failure. The cardiologist would be able to determine this after an echo.
Our good friend JustMe has had Barin on hold with the adoption happening the end of next week. Due to these circumstances, Dr. Darcy, myself and JustMe will hold off (temporarily) on this adoption until decisions are made after the cardiologist appt. This appt. should be in the first full week of March. JustMe wants to do what is right for Barin. Her hopes is still to be able to adopt him. Remember.....his name means Noble Warrior, which is just like JustMe's dad--tough fighters! Her family is also all hoping that things will be just fine as they are excitedly awaiting this adoption! So, in the meantime, Barin will continue to be monitored, he will continue to play and be his silly sweet self!
Tomorrow will be a fun day! Going to the Cat Show!
