Trip to Dr. Feelbad

 "What a sorry tail I have to tail.  Lynn grabbed me by the scruff of my neck and stuffed me into a tater sack and dragged me off to the V-E-T.


"They did not git me a private room as fast a usual.  They do
not like me singing the cat song fur it makes the dogs howl.
But I had to sit in the tater sack fur 15 minutes whilst doggies
paraded by me to go git doggie baths,  boy are they nuts."

"Then the gurl took me away and the vampire nearly sucked all
my bloods out and they squeezed my tummy to make me pee.
Lynn felt wet bloomers when I got back to her.
Dr. Feelbad came in and gave me a steriod shot fur my
itchy ears as the Zyrtec is not working.  He stuck telescope down
each ear to try to see my brain and he listened to my heart.
He said it murmured to him.  I did not do that on purpose as
I really do not like to talk to strangers.  He tried to pry my
jaw open to see my tooths but I wouldn't let him.  He was 
afraid ifn he got in there, I'd snap shut like a 'gator."

"So the story is I have to git my tooths cleaned on Oct. 30 and 
it will be the last time 'cause of my heart talking.  I also git a 
chest Xray that day and my claws clipped professionally.
He says he wanted me to take steroids fur my ears but I
can not now.  So he put me on DOGGIE medicine called
Apoquil.  Lynn hopes I do not start barking."



"The only thing good that came out of this was the vet did say
he liked my cute grey nose!  When I got home I hid the rest of 
the day and that's a long time 'cause we went there super early."

"Lynn says she let you know what comes of dog medicine and
stuff."

Yaking up hairballs

 "Lynn has been cleanin' up my upchuck hairballs a lot this summer. She says she's never seen me do such a job or as many."



"I've been makin' Lynn give me brushies 3
times a day, too.  My grey onesie is just sheddin'
more fur this summer."



"I have been leaving these hairballs anywhere I feel.
They have been on the patio, which Lynn says was 
the easiest fur cleanin' up. I put one on my pink rug
and the man who rubs my belly washed it fur me.
 Then there is the kitchen flooring.
 so she can just pick up and swipe with a wet cloth.
 
But the funniest is one day when she was watchin'
TV furom our chair. She did not hear me 'cause she was
watchin' Marshal Dillon. I upchucked on my beautiful.
and thankfully washable,  turquoise blankie that was a gift.
She did not hear me and when she put her bare feets down,
she stepped right in it!  I ran away, but purred a big laugh."

Well, Precious I can say I was in a predicament to get up
after I had messy feet.  I had to wipe them off on the
lovely blankie and then clean and wash it .  I will watch
where I step from now on.

We interrupt with breaking skwierl news

 "Lynn, come quick!  We got furs outside and I need to git out there to help."



"This one breached the catio fence and clumb
up the screen."


"There's a tuxie cat outside the fence.  Lookie see."


"I've seen this fellow afore."


"Lynn git this skwierl offa the door!  He's barking like crazy.
And I think the tuxie is takin' off without takin' the skwierl with him."

Sometimes we have drama here better than cable TV.
The grey squirrel hung for about 10 minutes after the cat left.
I wanted him to calm down before I tried opening the door.
His hind foot was on the screen and his front were holding
onto the porch light.  The second he heard the latch, he
threw himself off and over the 3 foot tall fence in
one fell swoop.

Apple Hog, Whistle Pig, Ground Hog, you name it

 "Lynn has been frustrated with her lack of eatin' apples this year. Oh the 2 trees were loaded early on but the critters outside have a yen fur them too."



"We gots the squirrels and the deers and then here came
the hog.  He's a chub now as he has eaten so many apples
and working on acorns now."


"The squirrels and crows just pick 'em and toss 'em after a 
bite er two.  Then chubs has his pick afore the deer herd
stampedes thru."


"Soon as the apples stopped fallin' furom the sky, he quickly
found the acorns were rainin' down like manna furom 
Whistle Pig heaven."


"Now just give me a bucket full of my
crunchies and I'll let Lynn have the apples."


Here's a short short video of some of the 
hundreds of wild honey bees I am so happy to 
see this year.  This is one flower head of dozens
I have on 9 sedum plants.  Every flower head has
had many many bees.


Above is a Great Spangled Fritillary butterfly.
No Monarchs new or old flying by.  Just the 11
that hatched and flew off into the rains of the South.

And the other good news is our Eastern Blue Birds
fledged 4 nest boxes of babies this year.  Could be 
any where from 16 to 20 babies.
