Yesterday

Good Evening L&LL,

Rusty had a good day except for one episode of pretty bad nasal congestion this afternoon. He had followed Edward outside (it was 50 degrees!!!!!) and stayed out for about 3 minutes. It was very windy and I think the wind and the warm, melting snow, and damp earth got to his sinuses. We put him in the bathroom and ran the shower and the steam helped. Otherwise he has had good appetite and enjoyed dinner with us at the table. His numbers are gradually improving. (anti jinx). I think the reducie was a good idea.

Beans had a low-key day. Visited friends whose cat we will be tending to for the next few days. She's a "Tortie" and has her own agenda.

Everyone have a good evening. Sending vines for Yum and Carla's civvie, Simba, and all kitties and beans in need of some. Happy OTJ to Mango!

 

Rusty, glad you were able to sniff the air for a bit today. The full moon is soon and the human just cooked a 20 pound turkey for 2 people. Bringing roasted turkey, brie, arugula, mayo, and plum chutney sammiches for all.

 

Sounds fantastic! It's the Full Snow Moon tomorrow night. Got any snow left up there?

 

The woods beside the house is still snow covered. The front- and backyard is starting to look rather patchy. The ice has gone out. Arctic ducks have come in. Possibility of some snow on Friday. Winter's not over yet.

 

We heard a flight of Canada Geese heading north this morning. Redwing Blackbirds were spotted in a yard.

 

Paws crossed Rusty gets into normal Rusty numbers soon. Brave boy going outdoors today!

Enough of the snow here melted that the crocuses in my back yard are peaking out over top if it again. We are supposed to see 50's this weekend. Good thing - first regatta is next weekend.

 

hmm.... just looked up your zip code on the pollen website.
today was very low.... but tomorrow will be twice more than today.... and friday.... and then you go up to medium on saturday.
Let's see how he does each day as your pollen counts go up....

And as always, good breathing vines....with scritches on top...

 

We're not letting him outside again in this weather! Thanks, Rhiannon.

 

Nice to see that green for Rusty. Glad the steam helped his sinuses. Thanks for thinking of us.

 

Better numbers for Rusty! Glad that the steam helped his stuffiness.
Our beautiful weather is done and tonight we're supposed to get some snow.
