I took my cats in to the shop, er, the vet today for their (belated) annual checkup and shots. Talk about an experience.
I took my cats to the VCA Fort Collins Animal Hospital; home of a friendly staff and moving dust. As part of their annual checkup, these folks do ...

Moving is extremely hard work. Moving out of state, say, from California to Colorado, is even harder. Take, for example, the logistics of renting a moving truck, finding a cat friendly hotel to stay at a mid-way point, and flying your moving buddy back out to California.
Note to self: rent ...

I got a nice call this morning from the vet asking how my kittens were doing. The answer: they are doing fine.
I brought the little ones home from surgery last night at about 16:30 and reintroduced them to their room and my closet. I put a little food in their ...
