Why thank you and LJ and the fellas thank you too. I'm partial to orangies, too, but I really love tux tabbies. I prefer the males who are sweeter, but LJ is an exception.

I got home tonight and found grey (LJ) and orange (sam) fur in the hallway. I'm assuming he tried to give her a wolloping and she gave one back. LJ is making major detours around Sam. He really can be a stinker. I saw her being submissive to Sam after she decided to come out and not avoid him. He used to harass Spunky on occasion but Spunky (the smaller one by three pounds) can handle him. I suppose this is illness and new kitty stress. LJ and Spunks get along. She really likes him.

Most of the time the fellas do get along and play well. Sam just has a major alpha streak in him that surfaces on occasion and I have to deal with it. LJ is just too small to wollop him like he deserves.

Now it looks like her incision has split a little but although shiny it is not leaking now. It was leaking since it has crusted a little, but I didn't notice it then, or do I know whether it was from all the jumping she has been doing.

She's sneezing a lot so she may also have a cold. I may take her in tomorrow. I did put some topical antibiotic on it.

I'm thinking about shutting her up in the bedroom tomorrow while I am gone.

At this point I'm not sure what decision to make.
