Tubby & Peanut's Mom

Since I got both Tubby and Peanut "second hand" from friends, I always thought I never knew their birthdates. But, like I mentioned in another thread, I'm doing some serious cleaning these days and I came across T & P's health records from waaaaaaaayyyy back when.
I don't know how I knew this at the time, but Tubby's birthday was listed as July 28, 1986. I got him at the end of October 1986, so he was just 3 months old when I got him. I always thought he was like 4 or 5 months old when I got him.
Peanut's birthday is listed as just 9/88, which makes her a little older than I thought she was! I first saw her at Christmas time 1988 and she was such a little fluff ball that I estimated her at 6 to 8 weeks old, so I always thought her birthday was in October.
I always unofficially celebrated Tubby's birthday in Spring and Peanut's in fall. I wasn't too far off, but now I know more specifics. :)
Oh, and I also have the paperwork where Tubby was scheduled for an "ovaryectomy" or something like that. In other words, he was scheduled to be spayed, and I guess they never changed the paperwork when they found out she was a he. ;) :D Also found out he was peeing in my bed and the vet gave me a bunch of literature on cats. I don't remember that at all!
Needless to say these old records went in the "keep" box. ;)
