just imagine zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz ing in one of these!

Izzie, I'm reading and feeling for ya, kid. Don't worry about the boots.

Bethie, You'll make the right decision. How do I know. I just know.

sssssssssssh........ at work......... got a visitor......... kitty sitting on filing cabinet


hey (((Boida))) - how's by you?



<peeks around.....did she open it yet.... did Bethie open the envelope?.... peeks to the left...... peeks to the right>

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh noooooo - I just got home - my black kitty is hurt - he's got something wrong with his eye - oh, it looks horrible. You can't see his green eye - only white and it's all weeping - if I try and open his eye its.... looks like his eye has been cut and is gonna pop out. I gotta get him straight to the vet. fretting.

ehbeth, those things look damn cool, what are they? x

Oh no , not KC !! - So hope he is OK - let me know as soon as you get back from the vets babe

Hey Crew

Poor poor black shadow kitty - his cornea is punctured and been leaking fluid and his third eyelid is ripped apart. The vet is operating on him now.

Gonna phone me in a few hours and let me know if his eye is going to be OK. We had to wait for an hour as the emergency vet was in surgery - then they took him straight in for surgery. The vet said that with humans - you can superglue the cornea if there is a puncture - but with him they think they are going to have to stitch his eye. YUK. The third eyelid they will stitch together as best they can. The fluid would have been leaking a maximum of 5 hours from when I left for work 'til when I came home ... I hope he doesn't lose his eye.

Poor black kitty - vet said he would have been in pain - but he was purring in my arms and just looking at me - with his one good eye.

The vet was very sweet and kind - know he'll do the best he can for my black shadow.

Oof... am going to lie down for a bit - exhaustion is taking over. Ears and throat sore ... thank goodness no work tomorrow.




<waves to the bonnie lass PQ - hugs - sprays lysol so as not to pass on bug >















tired................. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

oh sis........ yep - Kitty Cat... pooor fella - youaround?????????????? call me if you are? Gonna go upstairs and lie down. x

Oh my! Have you opened it yet? I was thinking about you yesterday (not sure if you got my Facebook message -- had a chat open but had to go before it was replied to).

Hoping the news is good.

For the black kitty, too...

Hey Soz.... d'ye reckon she opened it yet? Suspense I tell ya.... suspense! Really hoping for some good news when Bethie's made her decisions. Hugging her big and sending whatever strength and posivibes she may need right now.




My Kitty Cat...

A claw poke in the eye! Prolly his brother when rough and tumbling - they play together all the time, it's play fighting gone wrong. Boyz will be boyz.


so..... they have sewn his eye together. Shut.

The puncture in his cornea was looked at very closely but they think putting the stitches in will cause more scarrring to occur. The third eyelid has been shredded and all the surrounding cartilage (?) (it really was disgusting to look at, poor fella) .... he has had lots of tiny stitches. They believe that if the whole eye third eyelid is stitched shut together then the cornea will hopefully repair itself. So that is what they've done.

The kitty is a pirate. 'Shiver me kittycat'.

So, he's in a bit of a sorry state with just the one eye right now - of course, being a pirate cat, that would be about right a?

I can go pick him up at 6 and then have to keep him inside until he gets used to seeing with only one eye. Then in 10days or so they will remove the stitches and re-open the eyelid and ..... hope for the best. Bless my kitty. Such a shame.


Hoping all will be fine in a couple weeks - just, his eye won't be quite as seeing. He'll still be the most handsome kitty in the world tho!

Izzie, So sorry to hear about the kitty! Damn. It's always something.

Oh Boida.... loooooook...

Oh My Goodness

He’s such a trooper

Kitty is doing really well. Eeeeeeeeeeeuw " eye looks awful - nasty nasty nasty " but he’s on the happy meds and tho he’s a bit wibbly wobbly " he’s straight out in the conservatory chasing flies " as if nothing has happened.

He pulled his own canula out at the vets “me-ow thankee very much, had enough of that, that’s coming out right now, me-ow!!!!!!!!!!!” " took off his bandage when we got home and now he wants to play!

Have to keep him inside until Saturday (he's not gonna be happy about that) " then back to the vets just to make sure all is healing OK " then another week later, take out the stitches and open up his eyelid " hope for the best then, but the vet was very reassuring that he should still have most of his sight. So that’s great news. And he’s feeling no pain right now. Antibiotics too.

(only pain is the very large hole in my bank account hey ho, he's my boy!)

You wouldn’t believe how active he is already " he really wants to go outside " but no can do!!!! and he’s verra handsome still.





Chasing flies


Scooby is concerned!



How handsome is he!





OK..... I gotta go out for a bit now so will be back later.

Wishing everyone a great day. Lovin’ y’all xxxx


<Bethie..... open it>

Hey PQ -those things are great aren't they. Garden swings made somewhere in England. I wish I had a creek/glade to hang one by.

Opened not just it, but them!
I really should have opened IT earlier - a message on my voicemail would have made a lot more sense.
IT was the conditional offer.
Mind-boggling.
Then the message - they need my resume.
Hunh?
(thinking: How'd I get this far?)
Called. In the envelope with IT was their copy of my resume. The person I'd emailed it to wasn't in, and they needed a copy for their records. Scanned it, emailed it back.
Got another message. They need to reconfirm references. mmm ok.
Got a call. Everything's good - the real offer would be emailed to me.
Got the real offer.
<thud>
Still mind-boggling.
Spent the afternoon trying to find someone to hand my resignation to.
All in meetings
Tomorrow morning, if they don't show up, I'll just go down to HR to resign.

Omigosh, Pirate Cat has been busy! What a little trooper, ready to play on.
Must be Izzie's cat.

big smiles!

Congrats, ehbeth.







Sorry 'bout pirate kitty, Iz. I hope he's better soon.

Bet ehBeth is all smiles, congratulations you've done well!

Oh Izzie, poor KC, lady luck never seems to smile at you off late, one thing after another. The same things happened to my sister cat, but his eyes was gone, lived to a ripe old age regardless, we've called him the "One eye bandit".

Busy day behind me and another one coming up, won't be around much. Take care you all. Back to my cuppa and off.
