Change of Plans

We thought there was only supposed to be a 10% chance of rain today but it rained almost all afternoon. So that means we did not get all our yard work done as planned after work. I did get a little mowing done in the horse corral so they aren't in a jungle at night. Instead we got some stuff done around the house-cleaned out closets and stuff. We threw a lot of things away-it's amazing the stuff you hang on to for no reason. For example, I still had 2 drawers full of vet school notes-most of which hadn't been touched in 4 years. So away they went. Anyway, now I have room for more stuff that will eventually get thrown away. Part of the reason we had to clean out closets was to make room for the extra litter boxes in the cat closet. I had to move some other stuff from that closet to the computer room closet. We now have 4 litter boxes with 3 different litter options for Jelly (and Icy, who doesn't care and always uses the box). We have also replaced the drop cloths on the couch with carpet runner-pokey side up. This is much less unsightly than the drop cloths and also inhibits her from even walking, sleeping, or peeing on the couch.

Icy is free in the house again and we are trying to get her back on her regular eating schedule. So far this is going pretty well. I was still offering her some canned food to supplement her regular dry (it's formulated for sick and recovering animals) but she won't even touch it-I guess she's telling us she's not sick anymore.

Here is a picture of Wiggles-this is what he looks like when he sheds. He looks even funnier in real life. In other news Legend and Zodiac appear to have ceased the relentless killing of stuffed toys, so now maybe they will last longer than 15 minutes!
