Alley went to the Vet on Saturday morning because her incision didn't look very good. The Vet said it was infected so Alley got some antibiotics and a cone. Mom wanted to take a picture of her with her cone on but we took a vote and decided it was bad enough that she has to walk around the house all day with the cone on, we don't need to document it for all eternity.
The Vet also checked out Alley's ears. Alley had ear mites so we all got some topical medication so we don't get them too. Because ear mites can spread with any physical contact with other animals the Vet suggested that neither Alley nor Sierra go to the Adoptathon. Mom still went to the adoptathon to check it out and there were lots of AARCS cats and dogs there. Mom also heard that there were some adoptions so it's too bad neither Alley nor Sierra were able to go. However, we got an adoption application for Alley today! Mom hasn't heard from the family interested in her, but she's hoping they contact her soon.
I have decided that I really like the cat bed. I've never, ever laid on a bed before; cat or dog, even though we've had lots of each. This one is very comfortable and just the right size for me to snuggle up in.
Sierra has been practicing her squeaker removal skills. She can get a squeaker out of a toy at lightening speed. Once it's out she's done with the toy and she moves on to the next one. Mom has stitched up most of the toys but sometimes Sierra has taken out so much of the stuffing that Mom won't put them back together again. Now we have a lot of stuffing-less toys to play with. (They're not as good though!)
Stay tuned for an update on Alley's adoption application.
