There is only so much a human's heart can handle flickr injects the beautiful poison straight in my guts are aflame my eyes bleed pure tears they are truly the king and queen of kittens
One of them is sleeping in a box, the other one is stopped in his tracks staring at a toy that is on the OTHER SIDE of the glass coffee table. Dummy keeps pawing at the glass! How long should I make him wait before I help him? :p
He has a long name because we cannot agree on names.
Charleston Marcel "Spooky" Chew
Mostly called Spooky. I was gunning for Marcel, Adam for Charleston (chew). I just think he's kind of a french guy, that's all! Very slinky and dark.
Her name is even more of a jumble. Adam insists that her name is "Lady". To me, that is not a name but a nickname! I think her name is Snack or Peach or one of about 8 other things. Will be narrowed very soon.
btw, lady snack is just a LIIIIITLE too post-alt-hardcore-fem-sex-posi-wave for me
i mean, for my cat's name.
SOUNDS LIKE AN L7 SONG "LADY SNACK" b/w "SMELL THE BLOOD" 7" 1993 lyrics: "HAVE A LITTLE TASTE OF MY LADY SNACK! GET YR HEAD DOWN THERE BOY AND GET A SNACK ATTACK"
not very lady-like
LIL' SNACKS, on the other hand, reminds me of mini pretzels and chip crumbs and other cute things.
George is not so great. She had an x-ray and some blood tests, and they tried to draw fluid out of her swollen belly. She got a saline injection, which is like a cat I.V., as well as some antibiotics. Gigi has a fever and is sleepy and sad. Tomorrow we will get results from the blood test and stool test, and a special radiologist will go over the x-rays. They didn't figure anything out today.
We sat at home all day, watching the clock tick. It's the worst.
I am sorry about your little cat, I hope she'll get better quick. I am glad you didn't name your other cat "Marcel". I adopted a traumatized cat and named him Marcel last year and he got super confused and ran back to his old neighborhood (four small blocks away) and hates and scratches people. We have seen him a couple times, in October, then in May. He lives under a porch and wants to only hang out with other cats. People put cat food down there for him.
This friend is named Sammi. My parents foster adopted her for the summer in Idaho and then when they left for Florida found her a new home with the nice solo man in his late 60s who lives across the street and really needed a buddy.
She only has one eye but that doesn't slow her fun friskiness down. She's also a funny talker, sweet, and great at catching rodents.
Lil G and i got in a lot of snug time after her long scary day at the vet. we are all pretty much crushed right now. never, ever google anything related to cats and swollen abdomens unless you want to be similarly and completely crushed. so sad for our lil guy. she can barely do anything but find a warm place to sleep all day. :( nothing we can do except hope that she wins out over whatever virus is in her, but she is so small she might not be able to :( hoping the tests and experts come back today with some sort of good news, but right now, the outlook is not so bright :((((((
light a candle for lil georgie snacks, guys. she's having a rough time.
we will... one more trip to the vet will confirm if its the bad virus or not, but all signs are pointing to it being so, which is/will be very sad. thanks for yr thoughts n love and gifs dudes
Georgie has a virus called FIP that is aggressive and has no cure. We will try to keep her comfortable and fed until she seems too sick/pained/bummed and then she will have to move on. This could be in a few days or a few weeks, but she seems pretty uncomfortable already. How do you even decide?
We are all really bummed, to put it lightly. I've been staying home from work to be with her and help her eat, but all she really wants is to be petted all day long and to be in warm blankets on a warm lap.
I am so sorry to hear. That is so intense, going from the excitement of getting a brand new pair of kittens to facing this rough shit with a baby animal... I sympathize with you for all the "what ifs" presenting themselves and the difficult decisions to make. My best wishes go to you.
So harsh like Joey said, so terrible to happen right at first, when coupled with the excitement of finally making it happen with a kitten, just starting to get to know your guy...I mean, it would never be easy but it feels especially sad for it to happen right away like this.

Show me more, everyone- show me all the funny cats.
Georgie and Adam are sleeping on the couch together.
Spooky is sleeping in a basket.
I am eating lasagna and feeling anxious.
She only has one eye but that doesn't slow her fun friskiness down. She's also a funny talker, sweet, and great at catching rodents.
Here we are cuddling by the fire.
He is the most clumsy cat I have ever known and he can't jump very high. But he has the sweetest high meow with which he constantly greets you.
so sad for our lil guy. she can barely do anything but find a warm place to sleep all day. :(
nothing we can do except hope that she wins out over whatever virus is in her, but she is so small she might not be able to :(

Poor sweet little baby.

George, too cute for this world.
I sympathize with you for all the "what ifs" presenting themselves and the difficult decisions to make. My best wishes go to you.
wishing hard, making peace.
GEORGE. We love you!
We love Alan and Sally too, even more.
this is from when she was still frisky.
look at that face!
we mustn't forget Spooky, who is still here and doing great.
he is healthy and crazy and about to be smothered with extra love.
Spooky is sad and attentive... he knew something was wrong. I feel incredibly sad, but also relieved that she is not suffering anymore.
you did the right thing and you did it well.
I am so proud of you guys.
I love you and your snoopy and your snoopy who has passed.
Gotta get another bird soon, there's definitely a hole in my life.
