I have had such a wonderful day in town buying supplies for the animals and spreading some of this gift to others who do what I do. I truly do not feel worthy of such a gift not in the magnitude that it was sent. I have had others drop off food and blankets here and the house and leave a little something behind as well that helps out. But to be able to pay off the vets was simply amazing and I about gave one bookkeeper a heart attack when I paid her! I left extra there at the vet’s office in the “kitty” so to speak, to be used as a buffer down the road when needed.

It was so heartwarming to go the feed store and load up on cat food but this is god sent because today only there was a sale on the food I normally buy! So the kitties made out! I am still bordering on the line of stunned and OMG did this really happen.

Charlie is in an uproar today and I am not sure why. It could be that I just changed the bedding and the comforter brought down from upstairs smells foreign to him, because ever since I laid it across the bed he has been terrorizing the other cats. Or it could be the new room humidifier I picked up in an effort to make the air a bit cleaner in the front room. Invader alert, I suppose tilting the familar smell of the house off for him and he has to reassert himself.

He is so tiny to be so alpha, but that is the way of it. Perhaps he feels that by being such a bully, he can keep the others at bay and stay safe in the clowder. But right now, he is being a royal pain in the butt!
