Tubby & Peanut's Birthdays

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.

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.

Thanks Laura & Karen. It was interesting reading all those old health records. It listed the days they were vaccinated and all that good stuff. Hard to believe they were both that young once.

When I adopted M & S, I did get some health records along with it but none of them had their birthdays. I have the receipt from when Speckles was spayed and if I could back 6 months that brings it to April and April 14th is the day I adopted both of them so that is their Gotcha Day. Will be 9 years this year.
