cats, everything (mild -)
Stressy this morning. Need a kittenproofing solution SOON and we're kinda stuck dithering. (We've got some ideas, don't really need any advice currently.)
Shemp is being a butt and roughhoused with Sugarfoot when he visited, and she's been sullen and jumpy ever since -- scratched me twice while trying to pet her, and that is not really like her.
Really worried we are just not on friendly enough terms with Shadow right now to get her anywhere to get her fixed. Vet wants TWO appointments, a pre-exam and an actual surgery visit. I am honestly not sure if we can even get Shadow to the first one.
We are gonna call this week or next maybe and see if they can get her a sedative or something. We also need to get a bigger cat carrier to have any hope of doing this comfortably. Everybody but Artie's outgrown the one we have.
All in all, this has been a lot of work and your donations have been helping a LOT with materials and supplies. Thank you all again. No pics today, really don't want to bother Sugarfoot until everyone's chilled out.
Kittens seem to be doing great.

I'll be really honest, I love these guys, but I really kinda miss when it was just Shadow and Sugarfoot and we had the full run of the house and didn't have to worry constantly about the emotional state of one more being and the physical state of three.
But what the fuck else were we gonna do, leave them out in the cold? Just two more weeks until they wean, probably, and then we'll have a whole new set of problems...
