{{{Kristin}}} Maybe you could wear a patch! Aaarrrrr!

We have achieved kittenness. We got a tiny black kitty that has a bit of an eye infection and is a little underweight. Her name is Momo (shout out to my Avatar peeps!). The vet couldn't see her today, so we are going in Monday AM. I was thinking of dousing a cotton ball or QTip with saline solution and swabbing her eye. Thoughts?

Sweet kitty rescue. Yay for all of you Glamcookie.

I think the saline solution is a great idea. Cotton ball, not q-tip, just in case of sudden moves.

Congratulations on the new kitty, GC!

(((Kristin))) Feel better.

We just saw Wall-E! Loved it!

I am heartbroken that I missed the timely window to wish JZ a Happy Birthday. I hope it was stellar, dear, and that the year ahead is filled with amazing adventures, new discoveries, much accomplishment, and a generous leavening of fun. Also? Sparklers. Somewhere in there, there should be sparklers.

Well, there were no sparklers but definitely candles on her little Scharfenberger cake.

It was a low key birthday for her, but she got two new dresses and cake and a martini.

Thanks for my birthday wishes. I got to share it with Deb and Nic who I saw at Suzi's going away party.

JZ and Matilda are crashed in bed together having a nap.

I'm still too stressed out from our game this morning. (Which we won. We're the champions of all the other champions.)

Happy Birthday, Hec!!!

Happy Birthday, Hec! And yay for championshipness!

GC, upper respiratory infections and/or conjunctivitis are quite common in kitties. IIRC, you have another cat in the household - if so, best to keep the felines separated until you can have new kitty looked at, and wash hands thoroughly after handling her so you don't transfer germs to the older one. There is another advantage in keeping them separate for a few days anyway - it will allow them to adjust to each other's scent, and begin getting to know each other, without having unpleasant confrontations. Then, after kitten has had a visit to the vet and gets the all-clear, the introductions may go somewhat more smoothly than if they are just dumped in each others laps.

And, congratulations to you and Momo. May there be many years of joy together.

Happy b-day, Hec.

Kristin, I hope your stings heal up quickly.

Happy Birthday, Hec!

I hope you've had a splendid day.

Congratulations Glam to you, the df and the teeny Momo. (A little peach girl of rare black sort.)

Here are a few pics of Momo: [link]

Wind, yes, we are keeping them separate until we see the vet on Monday. Her eye looks kind of bad. Do you think it's okay to wait until then or should I be taking her to an emergency vet?

Happy Birthday, Hec. Belated Happy Birthday to JZ.

Aw, Momo is a cutie. I have no idea on her eye though. I tend to follow guy reactions on vet things which is entirely unhelpful when it's not my kitty.
