purrfect pilling and little waifs

Wow...it's a scorcher today. We screened in our deck yesterday and it will now provide lots of shade and cool spots for us and the critters. Funny how one thing leads to another. The barbeque must be replaced now because it just isn't good enough to sit on our newly screened in deck, says newly-retired Gary. Fine! I just leave all that stuff to him and reap the benefits.I can just see where this is all heading.

After kitty-sitting Buddy, Buddy & Chase, Sammy, Molly & Argo and taking Kane for a walk through the bush, I am relaxing inside 'cause the humidity is too high for me.

Sammy is the cat that takes seizures and this morning I had to give him another pill. Well, I got it into him quite easily with the head back, open mouth and insert into back of throat...voila! but he responded with the biggest HISSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS I have ever heard come out of a senior feline. Holy Dinah!
Argo, Molly & Hissin' Sammy (who was feral at one time)
 Anyway, that was the last pill I have to give him and perhaps by the time I care for him again he will have forgotten that I pilled him. Or, maybe the owner will let me do what I do at home for our cats when they need to be pilled and that is to give them tuna juice right after or at least some meat broth that will leave them feeling happy and satisfied and will move that pill along to where it is supposed to end up...in the stomach.

Can you repeat after me "KITTENS"


Oh, did I mention they are 4 weeks old...."squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeal." Dropped off at our shelter and now being fostered in our town.

They were kittens that were dumped and God only knows where the mother is. I will be taking more pics as they grow.  Camera on the **fritz** today. THANK GOD they are safe. Our wonderful shelter took them in and now they are cared for and loved in a  foster home.
hugs, Deb
