Porte Ponderings:
Outside taking pictures Archie decided to follow beside my footsteps.
My odd-eyed cat insists on going outside. His name should have been Lucky. The day after we adopted him his brothers and sisters were all killed by a dog. He had an eye infection and one eye was closed. Once it was better we discovered he had odd coloured eyes. A genetic trait often believed to be a good luck omen. He insists on going outside and if he isn’t let out he beats up our indoor cat, Smokey.
This week Smokey hasn’t been feeling well. At 15 she had diarrhea and was vomiting so off to the Vet’s. $345 later and blood tests, a shot, diarrhea medicine we discovered she has hyperthyroidism. So $65 worth of meds and $49 blood test follow-up in 30 days. Her thyroid meds are almost 10 times what mine cost. Now for the daily pill before bed. But she is feeling much better.
