So since it has been so quiet on the forum I thought I would just bring what's going on here up to date. First Mr.Big Stuff.. he was getting so bad, he was down to 14 #, stopped eating or drinking.. I was trying everything I could get my hands on.. since the Vet( Dr. Joe) said his blood work was all good, his teeth and mouth were also in good shape, ex-rays showed nothing, he had nothing he could tell me.. As a last ditch effort he gave him a steroid shot and gave me a antibiotic to give him twice a day for 10 days.. that was on Monday of this week.. since then he hasn't stopped eating! He is starting to gain some weight.. since he was 24# before all this started, I was half out of my mind with him loosing a full cat ( 10#) in weight, he looked so bad and was also getting weak.. but now he is eating like a Great Dane again and demanding food even with the dry being in front of him all day, he is so spoiled with canned now I don't care, he can have anything he wants! I was cooking him chicken and trying everything to get him to eat again.. now it looks like he is on his way back to being Mr. Big Stuff Now that I can breath again.. I can't wait for Ron & Jackie to come pick up their little demon love bug, and bring Rachel hers.. so soon all will be back to as normal as it gets around here.. I have Keesu out in the cattery, as she is old enough to help out the other breeder girls now and is in season but sure doesn't want any guys just yet.. I tried to introduce her to Monster but she was not a happy camper about that..so after going at him with ears back and claws flying, he ran back in the crate.. big baby That's it from the Zoo!!

WHEW! Glad Big Stuf is doing better. He's such a sweet cat.
Pretty exciting that Ron & Jackie are coming to get their new addition soon. Already have a name, huh? Brucey (Or Bruce, maybe? Do tell) I like it! He has the same supersize ears that Scooter did when he was a kitten. Good job on posting a picture Arlene, not so hard after all, right? As far as 1000 posts go, I may or may not have set it up to hit the final Cat Name at 1000. I'm not being coy, I honestly don't remember. I know I set the last few names to a higher number so we don't run out too soon...
The "what's new" on our end is I've picked a retirement date, December 30th 2015. Starting tomorrow, I have exactly 107 shifts left to work. Not that I'm counting or anything... Sugar is going to work another year. I tried to talk her into going when I do, but she's insistent that she has things to finish at her company. We have lots of traveling planned in 2016 and beyond. Planes, motorcycles and automobiles. We didn't get to spend much time on the Island the last trip north, but loved it when we were there last time. We want to see more of Canada in general, so expect to see us in Selma, as well as Nanaimo, in 2016...

We were planning on Texas, initially. We still may take a look, but are undecided right now. Las Vegas has a lot going for it, so we may just stay planted here. We shall see. The only constant in our world is change...
