It's the plague lacking biblical proportions....

Thanks Jen...there's one more I hope will make it on a wing and a prayer. House next door inherited a cat that was abandoned by its prior occupants. Sleeps there, eats here. He came into the house when the cold wave started, moved into the basement. With luck I can bring mmhim back into a house.

... first time ....

Thanks Jerry. I think we're going to get 2 more weeks of this coldxwave. That will give me an opportunity to vaccinate one for the fourth time and get him chipped. He was happy today to get a large bed for Christmas.

Uh huh...

It was good, Jen.

The first half hour. "Back off Shamus!"

Wasn't as unhappy as I thought. The capture and drive to the humane society was largely her crying. Then she was cool with it from there to the vent, and then the drive home. Her prancing was an announcement "I'm tougher than you think." Big baby.

That would drive me crazy.

They were fixed long ago. They're each receiving chip for tracking and identity purposes. Should prevent theft, plus I now have their rabies Vax tags. Need to add those to the collar. Also shows I have a more permanent interest in the cat. The rabies tags are considered darn-near a license.

Good morning Johnny. Cat #2 is chipped, waiting on vet for a,vax.

... *The Bangles

I avoided bosses and cages at work for years. Why would I want a boscage package deal now that I'm retired?

I have a cat to catch to get chipped. Then vaccinated. Two hours of unhappy cat movement. 😿

Good morning Tony. Another cold day in the offing. Taking a cat in to get chipped, then vaccinated. One more to go tomorrow.

She earned her block.

Good morning Chocago Penguin, sorry I'm a day late...

Good morning Sarah-Dipity. Just realized I could have gone down a woke rabbit hole not at all kind to the Yukon...

Argon, Xeon, and Neon earned their charge....

Good morning Sarah-Dipity. We have another week minimum of cold weather to endure. We may get a respite of 2 or 3 days mild heat.
