Amos Is Still Strong

Amos took a turn last month and lost weight again. We were unable to get his Feline Immune Support pills any more.  The manufacturer told me they will be making the same formula in a chewable formula.  Ya right, a cat is going to willingly chew a pill!  Especially an older cantankerous one that can't smell much because he has a drippy nose anyway.  I bought out the rest they had on hand and a couple I found on Ebay too.  I have a years worth now. Amos is doing better, but it will take awhile for his weight to get back to where it was.   I must say between the special foods and the pills my kitchen looks like a vet's office.  Oh well.........we do what we can to make our geriatric children feel better.

I'm still trying to get everything together to start selling on Ebay.  There's a lot to learn before you jump into selling.  I tried it once before and didn't sell a thing.  This time I'm doing the research needed to see a profit.  My other blog about how to make money on the Internet is being worked on slowly also. It's sort of on hold so I can move forward with the Ebay project.  I'm anxious to start an Ebay store selling everything pet related after I get the auction selling part established.  I have to sell dog jammies!  My girls need more jammies!

The cats have been enjoying the warm weather we are having right now.  The windows are cracked open and they spend most of their time with their noses stuck to the window screens.  Many of the birds of Spring are showing up now.  Just in the past week I've seen Tanagers, Orioles, Red Winged Black birds, Steller's Jays, Grosbeaks and Nut Hatches.  The cats are loving all the noisy birds at the feeders.  Unfortunately the stray cats have noticed them too.  Most of the cats in the neighborhood think this is their well stocked Deli.

So.....stay tunned for more on the Ebay sales / Internet Money Blog info.

Thanksgiving week

Here it is Monday and tomorrow I start making the side-dishes and desserts for the big dinner. The animals love Turkey day....in fact.....we call it big Chicky day. Think about it...what do stray cats spend their time doing when they're in the wild? They hunt birds. This is just a big (cooked) bird. By dinner they're worked into a frenzy by the scent of a big juicy cooking bird! We settle down around the table and if you look on the floor....there, lined in a perfect circle are 8 expectant cats with their begging faces on. (The other two are in a separate room because they don't get along with the others.)

Anyway.... with the weather we're having, it really is puting me in the Holiday mood. I'm looking forward to making a big feast and having my son and grandson here to share it. Only an hour ago it looked like we were having a blizzard. Now it's stopped but it's (according to the weather man) going to snow somemore before morning. Fa La La!

Better get back to my knitting (gift for a friend)

UPDATE

Since I wrote the last blog we gained a cat. I brought in a huge grey cat that is not very young. Since we have been caring for him anyway I figured why not. He does have people down the street but they don't ever let him in or take him to the vet. We have treated him for earmites and given him flea treatments all Summer. Now it's getting cold and we took him in. His name is Lamont. He's a sweet neutered boy and after all....what's one more?
