    Sending all my best wishes to Phinehas- there has been good news up to now so we hope all will be clearing up soon.

    Thank you for the continued thoughts/prayers for Phinehas. He's still not himself and I'm really hoping he gets better soon and that the heart ultrasound doesn't reveal anything bad.

    Poor Malachi's left eye started watering a whole lot last night and it looked a bit red, so I am wondering if he scratched it or if his gooey eyes are coming back. I swear these guys are starting to go in cycles!

    Malachi's turn

    Poor Malachi's left eye is really red and inflamed and watery and gooey. Poor little thing! He just looks so pathetic. I left a VM for KAK's vet about this if there was something I could do for him and wait till tomorrow when I go in with Phinehas or if I should bring him in today since I can't quite tell if his eye was scratched or if it's part of the URI my kitties are sharing. I stepped away from my desk and when I came back I had a VM back from Dr. Bolz's assistant Hannah saying I could probably get an appointment for today. I left another VM to find out when.
    Fingers crossed that poor Malachi's eye will be ok!

    I swear! I can't catch a break!

    Karen, I'm sorry to hear this but I'm glad that you'll be able to see my vet today. Hopefully it's nothing serious. I'll keep both of them in my thoughts and prayers.

    I hope they just both have a 'bug' that can be cleared up. URI's can go back and forth.

    Phinehas may have had the murmur for some time - many cats have them and live fine lives.

    {{{{hugs}}}} and best of luck at the vet's!
