we are on the final count downs of many that we have deeply loved.

as a gift to tomorrow's snow bunny warriors...i have finally finished up ALL of the house and shop laundry..ok well the last loads are in the machines so i can go to bed now. but i am leaving you with empty baskets to start off tomorrow!
i am a freaking laundry queen!

frozen shop pipes suck.

updates..
kahlua, the new ancient cat's blood work is back. she is in end stage kidney failure. we have started her on some kidney support meds, hope she feels ok for a little while yet.

i thought at first we had gotten some really good news on june and for a moment my heart soared...her re-check on her kidney values after her new diet and kidney support meds was way better.
there was a 50% reduction in her out of whack kidney values and her phosphate which was really high was back to normal and she put back on that 5 pounds she lost. so i thought oh thank god! maybe she will be with us for quite a long while...like a year or two or shit, why not three! but then i just had to ask the vet, so hey! what are we looking at for time now?! and he said..hmmm, kidney disease is much worse in dogs than it is in cats....maybe she has a couple of months left.
fuck. broken heart again.

i finally got over to check on little tyke and he is doing much better. still a bit hissy but seems like he is getting comfortable finally.
we pulled sammy out of the suite and brought him over to the house. he was not really settling in over there, we think he was lonely.
little gulliver has many health issues..obviously his blindness and severe arthritis but it also looks like he has cardiac problems. the vet wants him back in for an xray next week.
sweet newbie ruby is aan absolute doll. she is settling in well, no seizure activity. she is booked for her spay and is currently asleep on the couch with oreo. ruby likes to play with snowballs!

so besides the bad news on june and kahlua, i just want to give folks a heads up...

big bu8ddy is really aging in the past few weeks...kassa blanka's back end is getting really weak..and we are starting to have real concerns about cheyenne's quality of life. while we seem to be holding her chronic bladder infection in hand with long term baytril..her spine is really starting to twist badly now. and sadly the same is happening to tiny nicki..her neck is so badly twisted now..it is going to start causing her real problems.
old age and kidney and spinal disease all also suck.
