Anna’s Turn

Posted on May 26, 2015 by Oldcat

There’s been a few mild indications that Anna is relaxing from her hissy fits earlier in the month.  She’s sitting closer to the door rather than in her cubbies or up by the window.  I gave her some treats by … Continue reading →

Today I drove by the vet’s place and found it open and made a quick appointment for Davout and Harrison.  Davout needed a check on the healing of his dental, and I wanted a check on Harrison too. Davout’s teeth are … Continue reading →

Downstairs, Upstairs
