Like so many places around the country, we’ve been wrestling with Winter Storm Inga this week. Considerable icing was forecast, although thankfully we wound up with sleet rather than freezing rain. I was hoping for snow but no such luck! The temperatures did fall to incredibly low levels for us; last night was just NINE …
Brr…we are off to a COLD start for 2018! Temperatures here stayed below freezing for over 60 hours, a long time by our standards. We’ve now had water dripping from the faucets and tubs since New Year’s Eve in an effort to keep the pipes from freezing. But Jetty and Lucky have found the secret …
Last December I wrote a post about remembering our cats of Christmas past and the joy that Ochi was bringing into our lives on our first Christmas with her after the loss of Linus and Coco in the previous months and Felix the previous year.

Thank you all so much for your messages and kind wishes while Jetty has been recuperating from her spay surgery. I’m SO happy to report that her 10-day healing period is up, although we’re still trying to keep her from major jumping and climbing. She did so great in her pop-up crate, and I’ll be …
This week has been a little quiet here; on Monday morning, Jetty had her spay surgery! She’s doing great and returned home Monday afternoon. Monday she was still groggy, so she didn’t mind the cone (which is a nice soft one that flips back for eating) or the dog crate we have set up for …
Yesterday we headed in for the next round of Jetty’s kitten shots, a visit that went much smoother than her first time at our vet’s office (a time when she bounced around the room, tried to land on the one-inch chair railing, and wound up landing on our vet’s HEAD.) Now that she’s got this …
