Sad news and something gross...

Purrs, headbutts, and sandpaper kisses to Zuleme and the kitties at Caturday. Silas will be missed.

Well, I have to tell everyone about what happened to my big brother, Knightly. As was told last week, Knightly had to have his teeth cleaned and the evil vet found a problem - a cavity. So, he had to have a tooth removed. This was bad for him in a couple of ways. First, he was in some pain, but evil vet did send home something called pain medicine to help with that. She also sent some other medicine called ant-eye-by-ah-tiks for him. Since I have never been on any kind of medicine, I don't know what it's like to have a pill shoved down my throat 2 times a day, but it really doesn't look fun. Those ant-eye-by-ah-tiks cause another problem...a litter box problem. The litter box has been more smelly than usual, and Knightly doesn't hide what he has done in the litter box like Lizzie and I do. Knightly has not had dingleberries, but he has managed to step in a smelly spot while doing his business. He didn't have a butt bath like Edsel's sister, but more of a back leg and belly rinse. He howled at Mum while she was cleaning up, and me being the good sister that I am, I had to watch while sitting on the lid of the human litterbowl. Mum also noticed that he got some spots all over the bathtub and the wall. She says she may have to repaint that part of the wall.

All of us will be glad when Knightly finishes those ant-eye-by-ah-tiks tomorrow.

I hope Knightly feels better soon. Potty troubles are the worst. Take lots of naps and get bathed by someone else. After all, you're sick, and you can't be expected to do so much!

My human pet has been discussing a trip to the dentist for some time, but I keep dodging the proverbial bullet.

Meezers, Knightly wouldn't let me brush his teeth so that's why he got a cavity. He will tell you that he doesn't get enough treats. =)

Mia and Poi Cats, thank you, I think he'll be better now that he has finished the antibiotics and his tummy will get back to normal.

We hate meds of any kind. Buzz usually throws-up his meds and Meep kinda xplodes in the box - yuck! Hope you feel better real soon Knightly!

The litter box problem sounds yucky. Hope Knightly feels better soon.

Yeah - those ant-eye-by-ah-tiks (great word) can do yucky things to beans and kitties in-test-ins and the end product is just pure yuck.

Me again. My mum wanted to tell you that your mystery package has not yet arrived but she doesn't think you should worry yet because stuff we get from Uncle Sim in Montana often takes about 10 days to get here. Also, this is a Bank Holiday weekend here, so we won't get any post now until Tuesday. (lazy post office!) Will keep you updated.
