And then I had to say goodbye to my two cats, Milo and Jasper. I've had them for five years, and these boys have personality to SPARE. Milo's more like a dog than a cat, and Jasper is like a teddy bear (likes to be cuddled like one.)
It's always sad to leave pets behind, even when they're in good homes. I'm bringing my dog and (male) cat with me, but my female cat is staying, mostly due to how she gets nervous/upset when we move. (The lower expense in only shipping 2 animals is a nice bonus, though.) I'm hoping a family member will take her, but I haven't seriously started looking for new homes yet.
Today was a mixed day. Last night I found out that my foster kitty somehow escaped from the house, ended up 2+ miles down the road, and got hit by a car.
They tried to save her but she was just too hurt. So I feel really guilty about that.
I took my horse to the vet, though, to see if we could figure out why he choked on his (easy to eat) food twice last month, and not only does there seem to be nothing wrong (yay), he was so laid-back about the whole thing that they just shoved the camera up his nose without bothering with tranquilizers. He certainly wasn't thrilled about the whole thing, but he was willing to cooperate, which was awesome.
(And major yay for all of this being covered by horsey insurance, 'cause the few meds we did get were almost $500!)
Nothing else new to report here...I keep getting interest in my boy, so I may not get to compete with him again after this weekend.
I'm hoping this weekend goes well, though, so that if it is our last one, we'll go out on a good note.
And once he's sold and the house is rented...time to get into serious moving-planning mode!
