Howdy, LUV.

We almost tripped over each other coming in this evening. LOL

Hope your day was a good one.

Hey there, radu!

It was an excellent day. Slept late, didn't do much, took Peaches for his yearly shots. He wasn't too happy. Then sat on the patio and admired the 1/2 moon.

Hope yours was good. Also hope that it was warmer there so you could actually enjoy the day! Did your kitty have a diagnosis for his face today?

Sounds like a good day for you. Maybe not so much for Peaches. LOL

Today was pretty much the same as yesterday .... coolish and wet. We’ll warm up into the 70s and start drying out by Thursday.

That lump on Pandy’s face turned out to be a cyst. The vet drained a bunch of fluid out but said it’ll fill up again. We’ll just deal with it that way each time it gets full. With her age and heart murmur, he didn’t want to do surgery to remove it and since it isn’t anything malignant, there’s no need to risk it. She’ll be fine. WHEW!

Hiya radu!

Oh, I shopped all over the place, 4 stops, and that's a lot for my short attention span, LOL.

But I did need 'stuff' so it got done!

Our weather is beautimous, with high '70's, and '80's coming up this week.

Your day OK?

Hey Kathy, a quiet shopping day with lovely 70+ temps, no complaints.

Your snow all over for the season?

4 stops? Hey, ya done good! LOL!
Now to hope you didn’t forget anything.

It was another cool, cloudy, soggy day here. Drove through a couple of deluges on the way to the vet’s and back with Pandy. For now the rain is giving us a break but we’ll probably get more before the night’s over.

I DID forget something at the grocery store, and it was ON my list too, LOL. Oh well, another day to shop, just what we guys love.

Well that’s a HUGE relief that it can be easily dealt with by draining. I know you were worried! Peaches hates to be in the carrier, in the car and at the vets. He was the loudest voice in the waiting room. LOL!

Sorry it was still kind of crappy there. Know you are looking forward to those warmer, drier days to come!

LOL! It had to hurt when you realized you’d forgotten it and it was ON the list. Oh well, it gives you something to do tomorrow, or Wed. after you get finished with work. :-)

DEFINITELY a huge relief. I’d never seen a cyst like that before. Easy enough to deal with, at least. If she was younger, and didn’t have the murmur, it could be removed.

She’s quiet as a mouse during trips to the vet though she isn’t happy about it. Avatar is the total opposite, yowling the whole time. He makes the weirdest sounds, almost like he trying to form words. The meows are multi-syllable and crack everyone up.

We knew it would be another crappy day. They initially said it would be like this all week but changed the forecast today. Now we’ll be dry beginning Thursday. We need sunshine and warmer temps for the wheat and the heat comes in Saturday.

I hope for her sake that it is a slow-growing cyst so she doesn’t have to go in to have it drained too often.

Peaches hardly ever opens his mouth here at the house except to ask to go “aooowt”, but once he’s in the crate, he is loud! I guess he knows that lockdown is for no good reason! LOL!

We’ll just have to see how it goes. I have no idea how long it’s been there to begin with because large as it was, it was covered by her long Persian hair. It’s not in a spot that I normally touch when petting her.

I think most cats know what the carrier means. A trip to the eeeeeeeeevil doctor! LOL! Ours see it and they bolt from the room.
Most of them yowl the whole way to the vet and don’t make a sound on the way home. Avatar yowls the whole time.

Yep, there’s a lot of stuff that can be hidden under all that hair! LOL! Kind of glad mine are short-hairs just for that reason.

Rats! My allergies are raging tonight. Maybe because I breathed actual fresh air and my lungs aren’t used to it.
