Yesterday, Lisa posted about Fran and Ollie, two sweet siblings with eye issues. Fran has a condition called distichiasis (excessive eyelashes curving in to the eye) and Ollie has eyelid agenesis, which is the same condition the True Blood 6 had to deal with.
They both had surgery, and Fran just needs to heal. Ollie needs to have a second surgery, but unfortunately their shelter spent their entire medical fund to pay for surgeries and they need help.
If you can spare it, I know that your help would be greatly appreciated. Go here to read about Fran and Ollie, see pictures of them, and find out how to donate!
When I got home from Myrtle Beach…
Starsky and Hutch were so excited, they climbed my leg. Then we snuggled for a few minutes in my room.
Hutch climbed into the cat bed and went to sleep.
So Starsky climbed into my lap and bit the camera strap for a while.
Then he sniffed Miz Poo.
Miz Poo sniffed him back. Feeling that they had a rapport and were becoming friends, Starsky made the fatal mistake of getting just a little too familiar…
And Miz Poo smacked him with the Paw o’ Doom.
Then she glared at him.
Then she stuck her tongue out at him and called him a BABY.
So he bit the camera.
And pondered whether his feelings were hurt.
And took a bath.
And bit the camera some more!
Maxi loves dust baths. I think she might be part chicken.
I dug my Flip video camera out of my desk drawer yesterday and found that I had made some movies in the past few months that I’d never looked at.
So I looked at them, found a couple of cute ones, and am sharing them with you. Let’s call this A Blast from the Past! (Even though one’s from June and one’s from September – I didn’t say they were from the FAR past, did I?)
Remember Sheila and Lieu from The Rescuees? Here they are, snuggling on my desk back in June.
And remember Martin? (Of course you do! It was only last month!) Well, here he is showing again that he’s both a lover and a fighter. He’s so unbearably smug looking at the beginning of the video that every time I watch it, I have to pick up the nearest cat and give him a squeeze.
