    Introducing Hermione

    Introducing Hermione

    This is a slightly delayed introduction, as we got her almost two weeks ago. Ahem. When Keaggy died we knew we wanted another cat, but for heart-healing and scheduling reasons, we wanted to wait until this summer after our summer vacation. Just a few weeks before our vacation, a friend posted on Facebook that she […]

    Sunday filler

    I have a post bouncing around in my head and actually even a bit it saved to draft. But first a killer headache due to my fun new jaw grinding habit, and then a t0-do list that’s gotten uppity have knocked it back to. . . whenever. I hope I actually do get to it […]

    Kitty stories

    Kitty stories

    Sweet Keaggy is gone, and MTG has very kindly put away all the cat paraphernalia. The house feels empty without that small, inactive cat, but we still have the memories. So here is a Keaggy story for you. In the summer of 1999, I lived in a townhouse with 3 other girls and my two […]

    Hard

    Hard

    It was hard when my cat Keaggy was diagnosed with cancer. It’s been hard to take care of him after his leg ulcerated: rebandaging every two days, weekly vet visits. It’s been hard to see my normally cuddly cat eschew laps and snuggles for the warmth of the refrigerator vent. It’s been hard knowing whether […]

    Channelling Keaggy

    My crazy old cat is getting crazier in his old age.  His latest thing is to stand inside his cat box and pee outside the box. And then run away like he’s being chased. This is only the latest in this weird behavior, which has nothing to do with his age or illness, and everything […]

    Crappy news

    Crappy news

    I took Keaggy into the vet because his back leg is swollen and weird looking, although he’s walking fine on it. X-rays revealed that it’s cancer of his bone and joint. At 17, none of the long-term treatments are feasible — amputation or chemotherapy.  Right now, he isn’t walking funny, he’s eating, sleeping, and peeing […]

    Cat herder, extraordinaire

    Cat herder, extraordinaire

    One of my favorite Superbowl commercials happens to be an excellent metaphor for my life right now.   Right now I’m trying to get everything ready we can start the school year strong after Labor Day. Except we never really quit the last school year. We have just over two weeks to get through the […]

    Twilight of the cat

    Twilight of the cat

      Last summer, Herb the Magnificent died. He was one of two cats I got as kittens before I met MTG. Keaggy, the surviving, less magnificent cat, is now 17 years old and senile. He’s also ornery and anti-social. He’s always been ornery. When the cats were young, he would boss Herb around, even though […]

    Terrible Tuesday: I want my summer!

    Terrible Tuesday: I want my summer!

    Summer started and then we got really busy and, well, this doesn’t feel like summer to me. I-demand-my-lazy-days links! First, a slew of heroes. The last of the original Navajo code-talkers has died. The Navajo code arguably turned the tide of the war in the Pacific, as the Japanese were able to break every code […]
