    Arthur is certainly a pretty boy! Don’t tell him I said that. It would go to his head

    We went to see Jackson Galaxy last night. He was promoting his new book and shelter workers got comp passes. He asked how many had cats and everyone raised their hands. He kept asking questions and when he asked who had fostered bottle babies, only 10-15 hands went up. DH and I were at the back and he remarked on his bravery. He stands out with snow white hair. Jackson said bottle babies are like day 1 with an infant, times 7. Totally true. We picked up some locally famous fried chicken on the way home and ate it while the cats circled like sharks in the kitchen. We made an exception to our 'no people food' rule and gave them a taste.

    Foster cat Colby spent Thanksgiving rotating among laps. He's as social as a puppy.

    Beautiful Lina!

    (My best friend at school had a cat called Luna. This was many years before Harry Potter)

    Monday we rushed foster Colby to the vet. She said his heart rate was way too high and he was in critical condition. Yesterday he had improved and we're hoping to bring him back home soon. She thinks his thyroid tumor is malignant and it may have spread. She said he will definitely be hospice. We knew that was possible when we took him, so not a problem.

    Sorry to hear that, even though you were prepared for it doesn't make it easy. Hope he is comfortable.

    We brought him home last night. Not sure our cat was happy about that. He had Fancy Feast for breakfast because I think it's more important he eat than to eat healthy. He is now on a triple dose of the thyroid inhibitor. We'll see if that works. Fortunately he's good about meds if they're liquid and it does dissolve easily.

    A cat and a baby, double whammy! They are best friends and he is so gentle with her. When he is sad or sick, she cuddles. Best cat ever

    Wow! Is it a painting or a quilt? I saw a quilt once that looked like that and the store had classes to learn how to make it. It's amazing either way.

    Good news from the shelter today. We had a large, long-haired, cuddly cat we were calling Hobie. Many photos of volunteers holding him. He was redeemed by his owner, who said Hobie is almost 20. I love to see them go home, especially when it's their former home with a loving owner.
