I'm working later in the day than usual today, so from my extra morning-time you get a brief kitten update.
The kittens are growing up! As much as I love the kitten-cuddles, I want them to get to their future homes soon, because they don't have too many tiny kitten weeks left. Oliver is so sweet and lovable, all I can think about is how happy someone will be to have an adorable playful kitten who purrs all the time and sleeps on their neck. And Ramona might be a prickly little cat, but I'm confident she can find someone whose personality is a match for hers. She's got a secret purr, too, that comes out when she's in the mood.
I feel sad for Ramona right now because her diarrhea is getting worse (and stinkier!) and I'm pretty sure it's because of the antibiotics she's on. I want to stop them so she can feel better, but of course I can't without the vet's approval. I'm taking them for their second checkup tomorrow. Oliver is still sneezing occasionally, but hasn't had an actual sneezing fit in a while, so I'm taking that as a good sign. Ramona seems fine health-wise except for the diarrhea, and I'm worried it's making her lose weight, which isn't good. She needs to grow bigger, not smaller.
I read that you can buy probiotics specially formulated for cats. That's what I use when I have to take antibiotics, so maybe it'd work for them too. Bacteria: they're good for you!
