Yay, sj! That's wonderful news.
I kissed him, and I told him that I loved him. And I killed him.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Thanks, Maria. I know that things can still go wrong, but I feel like I can breathe a bit easier now.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
The flavors they gave us to try were Canidae and Hills. She preferred the Canidae, and it seems like a better brand.
I don't think Canidae is quite as good as Merrick, but if Canidae had any varieties without any of Harvey's allergens, I'd still have it in my cupboard. So yeah, when the time comes, go for Canidae. You know, some of the other premium brands do specialized veterinary formulas. I'll have a look around this afternoon and see if there are any other quality options out there.

That is good news, indeed, sj.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
If I were a cat, I'd definitely want Windsparrow to be my human.
That's really good news, sj!

Our wings are not tired.
Yay for good test results, sj. I was terrible about doing tests because I didn't want to have to fret over results. That goes for all tests, not just pregnancy ones. Ignorance is bliss?

My high risk OBGYN is pretty insistent about tests. I personally would rather be prepared if we find out there is a problem, we can have a pediatric neurologist, orthopedic, etc set up before the baby is born, but I totally understand not wanting to know as well. My mother was not prepared at all when I was born (because they just didn't do many tests back then), and I got immediately whisked off to another hospital for surgery, and she was stuck in her hospital for days before they would release her.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Yay for good test results, sj!
I've butted heads with my vet over what to feed my cats before. All the stuff in his office is full of corn and wheat.
I'm suspecting my Leo cat is allergic to fish, or anyway salmon and/or tuna. He has these "fits" where he'll lick frantically at his flanks like something bit him (he doesn't have fleas) and then jerk up and run away to the other end of the house, as if he's running away from something. It looked like a neurological problem I've heard of cats having, where they hallucinate and seem to be in distress. I was very worried. Then I thought, the occurrences of this seem to coincide with giving him his favorite treat, which is ocean fish. So I took all fish out of their diet and the "fits" stopped. I'm giving it a week to settle out, and then I'll reintroduce some fish and see what happens. He will be sad if he can't have fish anymore. Hopefully we'll find that a little fish occasionally is tolerable, but it can't be an every-night treat and a component of their regular food too. They don't really need it, anyway; they do just fine on chicken and turkey. I like to give them beef sometimes, but they seem far less interested in red meat than their human is.
