Bad Call

My notes on a bad EMS call

Warm Butt

OK, so I felt the little boys crawl into bed last night. When I woke up about 6 am, I only had one on my right side. I checked the left to find Patches all stretched out and a little boy kitty draped over her butt.

This obviously occurred when she was asleep, since she only tolerates the kittens.

Kittens

OK, for the next several weeks, I’ll be boring new daddy, relating all sorts of kitten stuff.

With four adult cats, we faced the food issue as we went to work this morning leaving them all unsupervised for the first time. The adults prefer kitten food, and as will happen with you and I, the rich kitten food doesn’t like them. So… The kittens were well fed this morning with their food. The usual plate of dry adult food was left down in the normal spot. The wet food was put on a table about 5 times the length of the kittens, but where we knew that the adults could leap to.

The Cattery Expands

We fell off the wagon July 3. Lollypop Farm called, because I had put in a request to be notifed about any orange kitties. They had some, and after some debate we went over there. Prolonged viewing of many cats and debate… and we came home with two brothers, Arthur and Merlin. Just over two months old and neutered.

Patriotism

First, who am I? I am a conservative Roman Catholic, with strong libertarian and anarchistic beliefs. A mix, who believe in right and wrong, black and white, good and evil.

I’m not bothered that people criticize our country and our government. The beauty of America is that they can do so. I’m not bothered that rich, pampered actors feel that the country who made them who they are doesn’t measure up to their standards. They have that right.
