Fyero was trying to decide if she should stay downstairs with the sunshine shining into the living room or try her luck upstairs on the bed yesterday afternoon.
She stuck with us for a little while before abandoning all and venturing up to the bed.
Hope everyone has had a good day.

Fyero has been stuck inside for the past couple days; I'm not entirely sure what she has been up to out there (yes I am, she's been eating up the garden) but whatever it is she's up to seems to be causing her to get sick.
So to test that theory, she's been stuck inside and is not happy about this situation.
I'll try letting her back out in a couple days, but for now, we're letting her rest up.
Even if she doesn't like it.
Hope everyone has had a good day.

Baltimore Crab & Mallet Cat Show March 2010
Scott decided to lead the charge yesterday and invited the animals to join him in a midday nap. Never the ones to say no, both Fyero and Sock retired to their chosen spots and settled in for a nap in the sun.
Hope everyone has had a good day.

Like anywhere else, we have lots of acronyms we use at work. One of them is ADM. It stands for Automatic Defense Mechanism - which decoded means CAUTION - WILL ATTACK! This is most useful information to have before interacting with a cat (or any other animal that comes to the vet). We make alerts in patients' files such as "vaccine reactions - pre medicate", "diabetic", "deaf", "Owner can't give pills", "turns quickly - examine first, then talk", "diarrhea on Clavamox", "no jug sticks", "name pronounced...", "refer to the cat as a female - daughter thinks he's (the cat) a girl", "don't put client in room 2 - her other cat was euthanized there" and "ADM". We all appreciate being made aware that a cat may lash out but every once in a while it's better not to know. Hudson is a case in point. His patient file, and his cage cards when he's boarding, say he is ADM. I somehow neglected to see the ADM warning the first time I met him several years ago and so approached him as if all was normal. His owner looked away and the vet held her breath when I reached down to lift Hudson out of his carrier. Nothing happened and Hudson and I have been great buddies ever since. He comes in to board fairly frequently and I think we both look forward to the visits... well, at least I do!
I probably shouldn't tell you about the ADM-C code. Oh well... now that I've gone this far I'll just tell you that C stands for Client. :)
BTW, since Hudson always looks so serious, I tried to lighten the mood for this picture by putting lots of toys in his cage. I'm not sure he appreciates the humor.

No, this Gray Catbird (Dumetella carolinensis) has not swallowed a long throatpick! I just couldn't resist the opportunity to capture this optical illusion....
