Closer to Home

An uneventful weekend for us.  While Carl did things like mow the lawn, I tried to get photos of the five kittens.  This is proving nearly impossible to do given that they are almost always in constant motion.
So I turned my attention to something that stands still for a little longer, George. You'd never know it, but I've a feeling that he loves his picture being taken.    
Cissy is feeling photogenic these days.
~Cissy~
With her allergies being managed with a limited ingredient kibble, Cissy is definitely happier and feeling much better.  She doesn't seem to be bothered too much by the torn meniscus in her left knee. She is getting around pretty well, but she does walk with a pretty good limp.  
~Rolling in the grass always makes a pup feel happier!~
I took her to an orthopedic surgeon to see about doing surgery to repair it.  He said that because of the damaged tissue around her knee from years of untreated thyroid disease it has made a repair impossible to do.  He did suggest cold laser therapy for Cissy which is what our vet recommended doing twice a week to start. But because of the distance to my vet's office, (an hours drive each way) it's impossible to do with traffic and work.  So, I've been asking around for someone that can do it that is closer to where we live.

Because I'm for anything that will keep me off the road and closer to home.

  3. Cute kitten shots! George looks contented. Cissy looks pretty happy rolling around. Todd wants inside, Mom. (Does he bark or knock?) Sheba is getting to be an old dear.

  10. Kittens are always a handful to photograph. It usually takes two people. One to wrangle and the other to snap the pictures.
