The two Persians and Cyclone went to the vet today. The “kittens” turned out to be adults- about 2-3 yrs old. They tested negative for the nasty diseases. It was confirmed one has been spayed- the black girl who I now am calling Embers and the other girl Cotton has not been spayed. My work with Cotton paid off, she was very calm although she kept growling, she did not strike out and injure anyone. The vet confirmed my fears- they both have such extreme structure issues on their noses that they aren’t even a candidate for the surgery to correct them because their noses are to tiny.

Cyclone is still at the vet, somehow he tore his eye. Because he lives apart from the others, I am not sure what happened- suspect maybe McGee got close enough to stick her claw through the wire and snag him. I hope to hear from the vet soon to find out what is going on with Cy’s eye- it was pretty ugly this morning.

Had hoped to start the New Year’s off without a vet visit- LOL I should have known.

It is so cold here- 21 degrees and supposed to get colder tonight- kitties are all in the house except for two barn kitties who never come in- and they are puffed up like a poison toad.
