Tagged!

The rules are: each player starts with seven random facts about themselves. Cats who are tagged need to write on their own blog about the seven things and the rules. You need to choose seven cats to tag and list their names. Don’t forget to leave them a comment that they have been tagged and ask them to read your blog!

Ok, Dorothy. Here we go; 7 random things about me.

  1. I walked in my second 5K race this weekend.
  2. I had a pace of 15:37 per minute.
  3. I need new walking/running shoes
  4. I’m going out for dinner with my Mom tonight.
  5. I leave for VT at 6:30 Wednesday morning.
  6. I have a job interview on Tuesday.
  7. I always type sexond first before I correct it and type second.

7 random things about my Cats:

  1. Samantha has developed a very loud meow.
  2. Bebe had no meow this morning and just kind of …barked I guess, this morning.
  3. Bebe would rather play with anything that wasn’t purchased for her than anything that I’ve spent cash on.
  4. Samantha loves playing with anything that dangles.
  5. Sitting on me is preferable to sitting anywhere else in the house, especially if they can do it at the same time.
  6. Bebe likes to play hockey with the Red Wings by chasing the puck across the screen.
  7. Samantha now knows the difference between the car ride TO the V E T and the car ride home. She had a totally different meow.

Tagging ...

Samantha's Kitty Chemo

Shock of shocks, Sam is improving. The lymph node has shrunk by about a quarter and the white cell count is good. She's gained 5 oz ...I really had convinced myself that she wasn't coming home today. The talkativeness she's had since I started the appetite stimulant is a side effect of the drug, so it isn't a tummy ache or anything, and we don't have to do antibiotics again unless her white count drops again. She is, however, furious with me. lol

Whatdya know. I'm not crazy ...

Friday's Feast #3

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

Appetizer
Name something you would not want to own.

Hummer. Why hurt the environment any more than we already are.

Soup
Describe your hair (texture, color, length, etc.).

Auburn to red, loose curl, thick, down past the middle of my back.

Salad
Finish this sentence: I’ll never forget ___________.

My Papa walking me home for supper every night.

Main Course
Which famous person would you like to be for one day? Why?

I’m really rather pleased with being myself, maybe Elizabeth Barrett Browning or one of the women that took the risk to actually write as a woman rather than using a male pseudonym. I would have loved to be on the cutting edge of fiction and the women’s movement at the same time.

Dessert
Write one sentence about yourself that includes one thing that is true and another thing that is not.

I quit smoking on my first try and have been quit for 29 months.

National Hug Your Cat Day!! Post Card Blitz for our endangered pets - May 3rd, 2007



Those of us not affected by having a companion sickened or killed by recalled pet food need to have our voices heard. The stress of trying to find food that is safe for our beloved companions has taken it's toll. Even when you think you've found a food that is safe it may be recalled three days later. The only people not affected by this poisoning are those who do not have cats or dogs.

On May 3rd, mail a post card for each of your pets to your senator. If you don't know who your representative is they can be found here - http://www.senate.gov/general/contact_information/senator s_cfm.cfm

Do not be rude, do not use foul language. Simply tell them that you too are affected by the recalls and the lack of regulation in the pet food industry. Let them know that it has been stressful, time consuming and upsetting to you, as a pet guardian, to find food for your companion. Use your own words, as long as you get the message across. You may also wish to send post cards to the following, but it's not mandatory.

Marcia K. Larkins, D.V.M.
FDA Center for Veterinary Medicine
Ombudsman
7519 Standish Place HFV-7
Rockville, MD 20855

The White House
1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW
Washington, DC 20500

Anderson Cooper
c/o CNN
One CNN Center
Atlanta, Georgia 30303-2762

Anderson Cooper and CNN are still reporting that only 17 animals have been injured by the pet food recall. They need a wake up call. We hope that by letting them know this has affected more than the 17 killed in Menu Foods testing they may take steps to protect our pet (and human) food as soon as possible.

Samantha Blood Count Check (Cats on Tuesday a day late)




Samantha pre-surgery



Samantha's white blood count is really low. Specifically her Neutrophil count, but there was no fever so they gave me an antibiotic to help with that today. She's dropped over a pound in the last 2 weeks, so now we have an appetite stimulant too ...who'da thunk anyone in MY household would ever need an appetite
stimulant!!!!



Samantha post-surgery and stitches
