Dang, hate I missed that. Can’t blame Jasper for flinging it in rather than stepping inside with it.
I have the cam up and see they’re waiting for that next mousie to be delivered. Shorty’s in position. LOL
I’m sure Didi and Jasper are glad this clutch didn’t turn out to be the brats the last two clutches have been. They do have their moments though.

Maybe it’s because there are only 4 instead of 5. The chatters were talking about one family that has 7. Can you imagine the screeching going on there? Yikes!

Feeding all of them is why I feel sorry for the parents. That’s a LOT of mouths to feed!
The kitties are ok though a few have been hit by a tummy bug the past couple of days. Poor Ellie can’t seem to shake it and I’ll take her to the vet tomorrow for a shot to stop the vomiting if she doesn’t stop overnight.

I saw it just before I wrote that post and just HAD to try. LOL!
I do hope little Ellie will be better soon. And the others. I was hoping you’d get a break from the vet bills.

I’d gone back to check on Ellie and fed the girlies their midnight snack of canned food while I was at it. Gave Ellie the juice from the can because she’s hungry. I hope she can keep it down. She didn’t keep the juice from suppertime down. :-(
We’ve had a little break on vet bills the past couple of weeks, though I did have to get one of Churchill’s meds refilled last week. This won’t be too bad if we have to go. A shot that will calm her gut down and a couple of pills to take to keep it calm a couple more days. By then, all should be good. Been down this road a few times over the years. We’ll see how she feels tomorrow and hope for the best. I’m not too keen on having to drive in rough weather.

Ah, gee...hope the rough weather holds off till you and Ellie get back. You even went to Walmart last night so you wouldn’t have to be out in it.

I did all the grocery shopping yesterday simply so I wouldn’t have to load wet grocery bags into the car and into the house. We weren’t expecting storms today, just rain.
If it’s just raining tomorrow if I have to drive to the vet’s, that’s ok. It’s if it’s storming badly that I won’t like it and bad storms are what they’re predicting.
But I’ll do it if necessary. Gotta get that sweet girl feeling better.
