    A Catch Up

    Thought I’d catch you all up in one post. It’s been a rough year so far with me being sick almost the entire time. I’m still dealing with issues and haven’t really gotten any answers yet. I have a doctor appointment tomorrow with a new specialist and hope to find out more then. Until then, it’s still a waiting game for me. I am feeling better, but I’m still not feeling right.

    Gable and Garbo are really growing up now. We had them fixed a couple weeks ago and both are doing really well. Gable is quite the lover and seems to “romance” us all the time. He cannot get close enough to you and will lie in your arms for hours. Garbo is also a lover, but just not as often. Sable (mom cat) has attached herself to me and what a wonderful cat she is. She has the best disposition and I just cannot understand how someone just dumped this gem in the park.

    Chowder is quite the character. He has been adopted by Sable, Gable, and Garbo and never leaves their sides. When Gable and Garbo were at the vets being fixed he went crazy looking for them. We felt so bad for Chowder. He ran from room to room to room in a panic. Finally he would lay down by my side and never leave it. When they returned he was ecstatic.

    LarryJerry developed a severe ear infection. He now has a drainage tube in his ear that Kevin has to drain daily for a few weeks. We cannot figure out how this developed so severely in such a short time. It must have been festering for awhile with him showing no symptoms until it was bad. Otherwise the rest of our group is doing well, thank goodness!

    We discovered 2 new kittens in the park this past week. Sadly we’ll just have to watch over them, trap and fix them when it’s time, and release back to the park. We cannot take anymore in, and I realized this after being so ill. Our shelters are totally filled and were even on the news this week saying how they’re overflowing with cats/kittens. At least these kittens will be cared for as best as possible by us.

    That’s about all for us. I’m sorry I’ve missed so many of your posts but have had little energy or desire to do much of anything. I will try and catch-up on the more recent ones in the next few days. Thanks for reading/listening.

    I'm very pleased to hear from you, although sorry that you still don't have any answers health-wise. I hope your appointment tomorrow offers some progress.

    Good to hear a update on your cats too, Particularly Garbo, Gable and Chowder. I have such a soft spot for them.
