First we want to thank everyone for their good wishes for the mom's surgery. Those wishes worked so well that she canceled the surgery! The big lump is still there but her leg has gotten so much better, she can cook, stand and sleep at night. The surgery started sounding worse than what she is experiencing now - with drainage tubes for a week, not being able to get it wet, post-op pain, yadda yadda . . .
All kinds of things have happened have happened to us kitties! We went to The Place That Must Not Be Named, and some of us are feeling our age a teeny bit.
Julie had a quick dental to remove some tartar.
She broke a tooth (lower left fang) since last year and we wonder
if it was when she hurt her leg last spring. Maybe she fell?
Anyway, she might have hyperthyroidism, we are watching her
and she'll go back for follow up testing in a couple months.
She's seventeen too.
Mica Moo waits too, in the mom's arms.
It's just too scary to face!
That's some good stuff!
Now there is feral colony #2!
There are six cats but so far only four have shown themselves.
And these ones are so wild, the mom has to sit in the car
to take their pictures.
The local TNR group asked the mom to handle their
substitute care taker program and she is super excited to help!
And there is going to be a big winter shelter building event!
Fun times!
We hope everyone has been doing well! Best wishes and fair skies to you all. We hope to get back on track posting now that things are going better.

Don't be too hard on mom, ours has been out of touch, too. Good news on the surgery..it's always good when it doesn't have to happen.
Good luck with the winter shelter..wow! Those lucky kitties!
As far as the place not to be named, hey, we have one of those places here. We don't like how personal..ahem, they can get, if you know what we mean..!
Hugs-Tinker, Stasia, Chopin and Bridgie

We're glad your Mom's surgery was cancelled by her as it's not so ouchie now. Please don't mention the "V" word it leaves us in terror.
Luv Hannah and Lucy xx xx
It's so great to see you guys. I've been thinking of you lots. This is great news that surgery isn't needed! Really great news!
Sorry about Julie and Carl but it seems they're doing pretty well for being 17. Lucy had hyper-t too. It affected her blood pressure so she was on a daily pill for that that I was able to just give her in her food. Hopefully, Julie won't need that.
It's so nice that you're continuing to help the ferals.
Oh, glad to hear (read)you on your blog!
Glad your mommy is doing better. And your Julie and Carl are good senior cats. Stay healthy, all of you!!
We're glad your mom is doing better and didn't have to go through scary surgery! Glad everykitty is okay and yay for your mom helping those ferals!
Glad to hear that the Mom is feeling better.That is great news. Carl and Julie sound like they are doing really well for their age. Hope they continue to do as well. Have a great Wednesday.
Bless you so much Oui Oui's mommy for doing that and Oui Oui, you look precious. Carl and Julie, I love you as does mommy to the nth degree. You two stay healthy. I want to hear you and see you for a long time to come.

Thanks for the update. I am glad your mom doesn't need surgery and everyone is doing well.
You might not have been posting, but you've sure been busy!! Glad for the good news of no surgery for mom! That's brilliant! This no posting thing is beginning to get annoying from my point of view! The Staff is slacking big time!!!
Great news that your Mom didn't need surgery after all! It sounds like you've been up to a lot, and it's really pawesome that your Mom is helping out with the local ferals. What a great cause!
Oh that is SOOOO cool that your mo is the substitute caretaker snooperviser!!!!!
And we are GLAD for no surgery but are still VERY worried about the lump. It needs to be gone, not just "less bad." Sending her TONS and LOADS of healing purrs....!
I am glad your mum doesn't need surgery now.
I was recently diagnosed with hyperthyroidism too and my numbers were very high. I have to have a pill every day for the rest of my life now, and after only 3 weeks of pills my numbers are in the normal range.
We were so glad to see your post and glad that "the" Mom does not have to have surgery. We are glad everyone checked out pretty well. We will purr for Carl and Julie.
We're so happy your mom's leg is feeling better and she doesn't have to have the surgery. And that you all survived the evil vet, too.
How great that your mom is gonna be taking care of the feral kitties. That is so cool. :)
We are glad you survived the v-e-t. That place is scary!
And paws up that your mom doesn't have to have surgery. That is awesome!
Thank you, Mom Paula, for helping those ferals.
Hugs!
So happy to hear that you will not have to go through with the surgery, that is awesome! Continued purrs for all to heal completely with ease...Sorry to hear that you kitties had to go to the vet, that is always stressful but we are glad things are mainly ok with you all. Bless you for helping out the ferals, have a good week!
We're glad that everything has been going so well for you all ! Concatulations to your mom for her new role ! Purrs
Thanks for the update. We've missed you! And w ehope the leg continues to get better!
Purrs,

You've been very busy during your time away. Glad to hear you're all doing well.
Dad the nursey man thinks less is more when it comes to medicine. He tells his friends that you have to remember that when you go to a surgeon their solution is to cut. More importantly you cannot Un-Cut. Once done it is done and they are never 100%.
We all wish Mom well and are glad things are getting better. It can take a lot of time.

Timmy and Family
Wow how exciting to be helping more kitties! Very nice.
We purr for the elders. Remind them to take an extra nap a day. That may not be needed MOL
Timmy

You is all furry brave to go to the place with no name!

I tried to leave a comment on this post three other times, but every time, I ended up in Google+ somehow and I could leave the comment. Anyway, at this point I just want to say how glad I am that you decided not to have surgery. Anytime you can avoid it, that is the best way to go. Hugs, Janet
That's a lot of news- and happily it's good news! Glad Mom Paula is feeling better without surgery and ready to tackle the TNR job.
We miss seeing you all around! We are glad that you are all doing so well! Purrs and hugs <3
Sounds like a lot of stuff has been going on. But we are glad to see you back and posting. Happy to read that you mom Paula is doing well. Thanks for sharing the update with us. Have a wonderful rest of your day.
