Pee and Puke

Recently I have gotten a new cat. I got him back in October. My sister had her gallbladder removed and I helped her recover. While I was at her duplex I saw a beautiful black and white (what looked like) kitten. The nights are now getting really cold and the temperature average is about 30 and below. On the third day, the cat came to my sister's door and meowed. My heart melted and I picked up the cat. He purred and I fell in love. Shortly after, I had my sister make inquiries around the complex to ensure that the cat didn't already belong to anyone. It seems that everyone knew this cat but no one owned him. With winter on the way, my heart went out to him and I took him home. 

I took him to the vet, got him all his shots and gave him a good home. Now, I already have a cat. Milo on the Downlo, is his name. The new cat was for my daughter who has been bugging me to get her her own kitty. After a month, it seemed like the cats were getting along and that all was well in the home. 

NOT TRUE!

Binx, that's what my daughter named the new cat, has started peeing, not spraying, peeing everywhere. He especially likes to pee ON MY BED! I am not happy about this. Now having said that, the cat is not neutered and is scheduled to get neutered this week coming. I am hoping that that solves the problem. So that's the "pee" part to my title. 

The puke part comes now. My cat, Milo, has been hocking up, who knows what, for the past three days.  It doesn't actually come out. He gets that glossy look in his eyes, then the regurgitating sound comes and then the cacking sound of puke. On the bright side he always manages to re swallow it before it comes out of his mouth. Eeww. 

There isn't anything that will wake me up faster than:
1. a kid throwing up all over me in the middle of the night and then crying or
2. the sound of my cat, who is laying right next to my face, heaving up and then the cack of the actual stuff hitting the sheets. Oh and don't forget that smell.

Anyway, he too is going to the vet. I looked on Jackson Galaxy's website and tried to see if there were any tips I could pick up that would help. We bought larger litter boxes just in case the old ones were too small. We have two litter boxes one for each cat, although they use each other's boxes anyway. And we clean them out every day. I am hoping that the neutering will be the key. If not, we are going to have to figure out something. I don't know about any one else but I DON'T like sleeping in a pissed on mattress that smells. 

Until next time...

Isn't this over yet?!

Sometimes I just want to scream! It feels like the last 2 and half years have just taken a crap on me and my family and there seems no end in sight.  Oh let's recap shall we... 2016 was my son's first open heart surgery followed by a plethora of doctor's appointments and other surgeries. I thought it was over by the end of the year and took the advice of Whitney Houston and friends when I exhaled. However, my fun filled days were not over yet and I found myself dumbfounded by the turn of events in my life.  2017 started out fine...well not really. January brought us the bad news that our black Lab Molly Mae had cancer. It was in her bones and basically there was nothing to do but love her.  So, that's what we did. We took her home and loved her. Then, in April we were informed that my son needed to have another open heart surgery because the tissue valve that they put in was not performing the way that they thought that it would and now needed ...

3 day nail check in

It had been three days since I have removed my nails and coated them with Sally Hansen's Hard as Wraps nail covering. Now the directions say to take off the polish after three days and restart the process all over again with two (2) new coats. When they say that you need to remove the polish after three days and start over, they mean it. Here is what happens on the third day, prompting you to remove the polish. My nails with the initial tear on the polish. The polish starts to lift and tear off. It started with a small uplift on the side of my nails and I pulled off the rest. Surprisingly, the whole thing came off without having to use nail polish remover.The problem with that, though, is that my nails underneath are still very thin and weak.  In this picture the nail is bent. It's a little hard to see it but I am bending my nail. The weak condition of my nails has continued and I see no real change to them . The next picture is of  the top of my nail, showing the te...

Peter O'Toole

RIP Mr. O'Toole.  I loved his work not to mention that he was an all time hottie back in the day. As he got older his wonderful acting ability came through. Although it was not an award wining movie, one of my favorite movies was High Spirits where he co starred with Daryl Hannah and Steve Guttenberg. I also liked the movie Creator where he co-starred with Mariel Hemingway, Vincent Spano and Virginia Madsen. Peter was capable of so many ranges of acting and the world will miss his talent. Until next time...
