From now on it’ll rain for at least 24 hours.

We’ve had a really nice morning here, sunny and because of that rather pleasant except for in the darkest shadows. Now the rain has arrived and it’ll continue for well over 24 hours they’re guessing. They’re also guessing that we’ll get well over an inch of rain as well.

     

Sara is quite annoyed downstairs, she is still too small to climb the stairs and she really wants to 🙂 It’s not like she’s alone down there, she has two big dogs looking after her 🙂 That could be what’s bothering her, she was sleeping in the recliner when we all passed her a minute ago and now the dogs taking care of her no matter if she wants it or not 🙂 🙂 🙂

     

We walked down to the creek this morning, at first I thought it might be too much for Nova, she dragged her legs and walked really slowly, that is until she realized we would have a walk where she wanted to walk and the road would mostly be in the shadow. She is a bit under the weather though, losing weight again and I don’t know how to turn that around. I’ll go to the super market tomorrow and buy vitamins and what ever she might need. She is after all 18 years old and it can go downhill fast.

     

Sara on the other hand is really good. I brought her outside for a short while so I could get fresh air in to the cottage. She wasn’t too happy about it though, not until I put her in the big pocket in my hoodie 🙂 She’s still so tiny that I have to give her her food on the floor in the bathroom, anywhere else and she would only be able to eat when I’m around, otherwise both Alma and Malkolm would eat her food before she even got close to it, once upon a time I made sure to be able to have the bathroom door semi open so that cats could go in there but not big dogs 🙂 🙂

     

Well they are all telling me that it is time to eat even though I think it is a bit early but I better do as they say 🙂 after that they all want some of what I’m eating as well but they’ll have to do with some cheese I think 🙂

       

Have a great day!

Well I guess I have a cat now :-)

I had my day planned, I would go to my old work place to get a employer certificate so I can show that I’ve worked there for as long as I have and had no complains and so on. Lots of other things planned to do as well but that didn’t happen, wasn’t even close 🙂 🙂  We had morning mist even though we were quite late going on our walk, it was quite a lot more chilly that it felt when I let the dogs outside after we had woken up. I was quite pleased with that because we were heading for the forest and the eventual moose flies. Nova was a bit slow today so I chose to just have a shorter walk.

We found her far down in to the fog.

     

When we came back out of the forest I could hear something screaming quite loud. Took some time before I realized it was a cat, so we walked down quite far on the road where Malkolm always is allowed to walk of-leash.  I thought that it perhaps was a cat that had gotten stuck in the mud and needed help or perhaps been run over by the four wheeler the ones working with the cattle use, they tend to drive really fast. We had been walking quite far down the path when I finally saw it, it was a kitten.

     

I must say that I was quite disappointed by the way Alma and Malkolm behaved (Nova behaved like the lady she is, she took a sniff at it and walked away 🙂 🙂 🙂 ). I was just going to pick the kitten up when Alma tossed it up in the air as if it was a toy. I scolded her really badly but fell and then Malkolm did the same. I can happily say that it is very different now, they adore her 🙂 Anyway, Her eyes were filled with puss and she couldn’t open them. So I brought her home, cleaned her eyes and called the vet. So now she’s registered to me and chipped. Turns out she has cat flu, pneumonia and some other smaller infections, all treatable. The problem of living alone and having pets is that when You’ve been at the vet You usually need to go to the pharmacy as well. I can’t eave the kitten in the car and I can’t bring her to the pharmacy, so I had to drive home to leave her in the cottage, hoping that the dogs will accept the bribes since I need to go back again to almost the exact place again to get the medicines 🙂 🙂 🙂

     

I left her in the bathroom with water and beside the litter box but also had to buy her some food. I had a big bag with cat litter standing in the bathroom, only three or four years since I had a cat her last time 🙂 🙂 I was about to lift it up and then the bottom opened up 🙂 🙂 🙂 The dogs changed their minds as soon as re introduced them and have been more or less obsessed with her 🙂 I’ve blocked the bathroom door so that she can go in and out as she pleases but to narrow for the dogs to follow. The vet had to have a name for her and I really hadn’t had any time to figure out any, so we named her Sara 🙂 She will most likely be called The Cat in the future 🙂

   

She didn’t get her shots today just because she’s too sick but will get them next week. Her eyes have almost turned to green so we figured out that she’s around 7 weeks old and weighs 390 grams (less than a pound). She is a bit tired of me right now because I have given her her medicines, both antibiotics and eye drops. She is now oddly colored around the eyes because the drops are bright yellow 🙂 🙂 I’m pretty sure she’ll be ok soon, she has a temperament that show she’s not going to give up 🙂 🙂 🙂

She will look a bit miserable for some time but she has a lot of energy and have walked around in the cottage a lot, followed by Malkolm and Alma 🙂

Always a dog there to clean her up 🙂  

Have a great day!
