I had to do the sub-cu fluids for a cat, but it did shock her kidneys back into functioning and she was fine thereafter on a (pricey, get it at the vet) cat food for kidney disease. Once I didn't realize I was out of food until the start of the Labor Day weekend and I had to go commercial. It made for quite the holiday weekend celebration for her.

She was one of those nine-lives felines. Both of her retinas detached and she was totally blind, but lo and behold, they decided to reattach on their own after several weeks.

Yeah, I know about that high-priced cat food. But heck, it's a very small price to pay. Sadly, his kidneys never recovered. But he did have a good life that last year, and was quite cheerful until the very end. This from the cat who swallowed 20 of those yellow earplugs (I worked graveyard). Unfortunately, he only coughed up 19 of them.

I have no idea why he thought they were so yummy, but he clearly did. All the other cats thought they were cat toys to bat around.

Then, about a year later, he apparently found one of those rubber feet that some appliances have, and tried that out. Yup, back in to the vet for another abdominal surgery. All in, it was over $4k. We used to laugh that the vet should name their new wing after him. She laughed and said she should just install velcro.

Drinking expresso before walking around the park.

[Update: Took a walk around the small park in front of my apartment complex... Around and around I went. Too bad I ran out of banana nut muffins...]

Kirkland Pacific Bold, and a glass of cranberry juice.

I had been sipping this fairly regularly, but last time I reached into the cabinet, my hands found an old favourite, Port Charlotte Islay Barley. BA bit peatier, but also a bit rougher. The extra time in oak has done good things with the PC 10Yr, but regular PC is still pretty special.

Stores here stopped carrying the Islay Barley .... now I find only the 10 yr.

Coffee, coffee, and more coffee. Haven't had a drop of beer or liquor since we got the kittens as that would be a danger to them and us. I wasn't intending to have a sober September, but it just happened that way. Planning to have a flight of new locals with dinner on Friday though
