Computer upgrading babble, Squeaky's vet visit (all is well, trying high fiber food).

Laurel fussing at her computer not doing exactly what she wants when she wants has been making me feel unreasonably irritable. This will be relieved soon with upgrading of her computer (whee sale finds at Fry's) but I am leaving that to Vogon since I do not have a good track record of putting new components together.

Our kitties are all on the w/d diet, which is supposed to be pretty good for them. Plus, since Squeaky is a boy, it should keep him from getting any blockage.

Squeaky seems to like the w/d food so far. I expect any change to take another week or two to make itself known since it took about three weeks for his digestive system to adjust after he came home with us.

In the meanwhile, we have dubbed him Potbelly Kitty. I thought he was shaped a little funny when we bought a large cat harness and no matter how I adjusted it, it fit fine in the neck but I couldn't get it long enough in the upper chest/underarm. I plan to snip that harness apart and reuse the buckles to make him a couple of stylish fabric collars.

Since the buckles are just half an inch wide, Vogon thinks some of a large-scale cow print would look more abstractly black-and-white to blend in with Squeaky's coloring. I want to see how one of my tiny-scale holiday prints would look in a collar. He's been very patient so far with me measuring and laying swatches against him. Of course his favorite fabric so far is orange. (:

Oh, if he likes orange, that's what you should go with. Yuki's so annoyed with collars, he instantly tries to attack the thing once it's on.
