The Cats

Since I last posted , we lost Miss Kitty. She developed hyperthyroidism. She was on meds for a while. They worked pretty good. A few months ago she suddenly went downhill. She stopped eating or drinking very much. We took her to the vet on a Friday, brought her home for the night , then took her back to the vet Saturday morning for euthanasia , we then took her to the pet cemetery for cremation. We cremated her because we do not have a place to bury our kittys yet.

Last night I thought we might loose Sylvester . He would not walk. He would drink and eat if we put it near him.
His arthritis in his back was acting up real bad. We had a weather system move in and it aggravated his back. He was doing better this morning , but I took him to the vet any way. She said , yes , it was time for him to get his arthritis shots again. We take him in every two weeks for a shot (total of 3) . That will take care of him for another year. He seems to feel better tonight. He is funny though. He knows it will hurt to get up on the sofa so he can lay down next to us , but he insists on climbing up there any way. We have to let him do it on his own though, we hurt him if we try to help.Right now he is sleeping by the fridge, it has warm air from the motor that blows out and there is a heater vent there too. He is also  hoping some one will drop some turkey or tuna or something on the floor. The dogs keep checking on him to make sure he is ok.

Well gotta go let the dogs in , talk some more later.
