I am at the emergency vet with Perkins the cat. I hope to hell I am overreacting, but his breathing seemed labored on top of everything else.
Sweet lumpy minion, you're the only one that understands. Probably 'cause I haven't sucked the brain out of you yet.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Cat-ma to you. I vote "better over-reacting than regretful"

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I am just recovering from a nasty bout of food poisoning. I will spare you the details, but I may never eat fast food again. I had to send the DH off to the movies, as he'd already bought the tix for us and our friends. He did not want to go, but it meant the ticket money wasn't wasted and I'd just as soon puke violently on my own, thanks. Not the best evening I ever had. I blame Tino.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Poor Perkins! You have my sympathies. And poor scrappy!
Re: running water for cats, we got a little fountain for when we go out of town [link] -- it took a couple days for Kripkat but now they both drink tons from it. Manny stares at it for like 20 minutes at a time.

Poor Scrappy. I hope you feel better soon.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"
Feel-better~ma for Perkins the cat and Scrappy. (Fast food gone wrong is evil. I once left out a Chinese prawn rice box a bit too long. Very bad.)

Our wings are not tired.
Here's hoping for good news from the emergency vet. ((both Perkins))
Ugh, I hope it has passed, Scrappy. There should be a new name for food poisoning that adequately reflects the misery.

Poor Perkins! Hope it worked out okay.
Scrappy, hope you are feeling better too.
Woke up at 3:00 an again at 6:00. I'm going to be tired today, aren't I?

I bought a Bungalow 360 bag with whales on it. Love it. Super cute.
Then I checked out Bungalow 360's website and their website is actually causing me pain. It's like the company is run by 13 year old girls who are just learning HTML. WTF?!

That is a super cute bag! I think I will stay away from the web site.
Thanks for all the vibes last night. Perkins spent the night at the emergency vet last night getting IV fluids and anti-nausea meds. It looks like there might be something wrong with his kidneys--one of them is misshaped and his enzymes are slightly elevated, as is his temp. There will be more testing and then we will see.
