Sometime on Friday night, somekitty puked all over Dixie dog's bed. We don't know who exactly, but smart money is on Cal. The lady took one look at the bed and said there was no way she was cleaning that mess up and decided Dixie needed a new bed anyway. Dixie has been using our blue fishy bed every since. Yeah, it's waaaay too small for Dixie.
So, on Monday, the lady took the money from the pool table sale and hit the Internet. Petco was having a good sale and free shipping! She bought Dixie a very nice new bed that is off the ground, like a cot. We're sure Maizy Grace will enjoy the new bed as well. For us kitties she bought a water fountain!! Cal's prednisilone really makes him thirsty and pee a massive flood. For the first time in his 10 years of life, he has started drinking out of the kitchen faucet. The lady is hoping the new fountain will satisfy his need for flowing water.We can't wait for our cool new stuff to arrive!
***Update on Pop***
Pop had a pretty good appointment yesterday. The dr. believes he is improving. There is still infection in the foot bone, which causes his whole foot to swell and turn purple every time he puts it on the floor. The dr. has decided to cut back on the least potent antibiotic and remain the same on the strongest one. He will need another 3-4 weeks of IV antibiotics and then probably another 1-2 weeks of oral antibiotics.Thanks for all the purrs, you are all so very wonderful! Now we need to add our Nana to the purr list (she is the lady's mom and was Caddy Caddy's mom.) She learned yesterday at the human vet that she has Hashimoto's disease and high blood pressure. She will be going to see an internist soon to hopefully get both conditions under control.
