Bella

Bella in her favorite napping spot

When I last wrote about Evie, here and here, her fate was uncertain.  My co-worker did not want to keep her, rather wishing to find another home for Evie after adopting out her two siblings.  Then the vet reported that she was blind.  Months later, and little Evie has been absorbed into the household of four-now-five cats and two dogs, and she will stay forever with my co-worker!  Called Baby Bella, she had to have her one eye removed at the same time she was spayed.  The other eye has little, if any, sight.  My friend says Bella is very friendly, and I am glad things have worked out.  I hope to visit some day soon, with my camera, to try to get some good photos of all of the menagerie!

Hurray for Baby Bella!

Turkey for Cats

My employer generously gives us each a frozen turkey for the holidays.  This year, along with my own turkey, a co-worker gave me hers because her hubby actually dislikes turkey.  On Sunday, my hubby cooked both birds, and after pulling the meat off the bones, he cooked the bones and other stuff to make broth.  Everything then rested in the frig, until yesterday when we put everything through the grinder.  We made over forty packets of fresh ground turkey food for the cats!  We are vegans, after all, but the cats LURV this stuff!  It's now in the freezer, and I pull out a packet to defrost.  After a day or so, I stir in my concoctions, and every cat gets to chow down.  It's mostly for the 'o' cats, since Chuck has such a touchy intestine, but Angel and Chuck manage to get a share too.

We are grateful for the office's generosity, (plus the day off today) and I am thankful that the hubby will work so hard for the kitties.  The pile of dishes to wash up are staggering!

Hope you all had a delightful Thanksgiving Day for those in the States, and thanks for your kind thoughts for little Evie too.  I hope everything will work out for her, and I'm sure it will, however I'm going to put in lots of effort to find her a good furrever home. Now...time to get out and SHOP!
