puffy eye - 08:19 AM
(filed under 'baby')
i'm not sure if i mentioned it last time he had it, but smiley has a puffy eye again. i took him to the doctor last time after it didn't go away after a couple of mornings & he said it was mild conjuntivitis. he gave me some stuff to put in his eye, but i only had the chance to use it once before it went away on its own.
this time i think i'll do what my sister said she did with her girls when they had the same thing. she used to gently wipe their eyes with saline, one clean tissue for each eye of course, & it would clear up very nicely.
if it doesn't improve over a couple of days as it did last time then i'll take him to the doc again.
a cat & her baby - 08:13 AM
(filed under 'animal')
there are two cats living in our laundry downstairs. they've been living amongst the boxes of our stored stuff (okay, i admit it, it's mostly 'my' stuff, not 'our' stuff) since while we were away over christmas.
shroom came home to dead birds & many feathers & saw the two cats. one is a kitten & the other is, i assume, the kitten's feral mother. shroom said the mum wasn't pleased to see him & made noises as such.
i saw them just now, too. the baby came out to see mcgarnicle & i when i took him outside to pee & he wanted to investigate because he could smell them. when he came back for a second look the kitten was hiding & the mum was glaring out at us.
