Happy Caturday, everybody. Hopefully Mr. Slop Eater here helps cheer everyone up a little

Is this your moggy who as ill? He looks great!

Is this your moggy who as ill? He looks great!

Yup! He's still doing okay. No nose bleeds (that I've noticed) in a few days now! Though he was coughing the other night... I don't like that, but I haven't heard that since.

I think wetting and mashing his food is helping. Less pain on his teeth and easier to digest. He has more energy and spunk.

I know I still won't have as long with him as I'd like, but I'm glad he's doing better. Makes me feel better, for sure!

I was nervous to check on my chooks this morning, but they're all full of zoomies. Urates and vinegar, even!

I just took down the last 2 bird feeders we had up. I'll empty, clean, and put away the bird bath later today or tomorrow. Dad and I have a lot to do today so I don't know if I'll get to it.

Monday I'm having my last 2 wisdom teeth pulled. Ugh, I'm not looking forward to the recovery, that's more stressful than the procedure. Only eating soup and other soft foods for a week or 2, no caffeine, need to be careful about dry socket... UGH!

But it'll be done and I won't have to worry about another gaping hole in another wisdom tooth

This is an argument that I will take up when the time is right. The Polish have such a hold on her heart. She just loves them so much. He is the third she has lost in the past year. That's a lot to take. Frankly we are still dealing with Phyllis passing. I miss her every time I go out into the backyard and she is not at my feet.

The hope was Versace would take her place in the tribe. But he was a boy. We found him a good home where she could still follow his life and that was just ripped away. It's just hard for her right now. He was her baby.

I’m still dealing with the loss of Phyllis and now Versace. Life is just a short story sometimes.

I sure hope your recovery is fast, lots of fluids and gentle walking.

Yes soft food sure does help. Love him while he is with you. That’s all we can do.

Yes sometimes it is that way. Love them while you can.

Well all this being freaked out has me deciding to treat Laverne with sulpha-trim. That swelling has been going on too long and not resolving, so I have pulled up a dose of meds and will start her on that for 10 days.

I had Mr Wyandottey in the house with me all night long. I thought that if he stayed warm, he’d sleep in and keep his beak shut. I was so wrong. I was up at 11:00- then 03:00 and then 0400 and so on. His crowing is very loud!
I’m thinking of buying a decimal reader and start charting his patterns.

I brought my little hen Blue in the house. I thought that CeeCee was laying those blue eggs, but now I’m confused about this, because I caught Blue sitting on a blue egg this morning?

@BY Bob , I noticed Phyllis took over your profile picture!

I love it.
