So in the middle of all of the stuff in the house, a small point of fun: four kittens romping in the back yard. Imagine my surprise to look out the back window and find a mamma kitty with four 6-8 week old kittens.
I’m going to have to contact the Knox Feral Cat rescue. Hopefully the kitties can be trapped and placed in homes. I love cats, but it isn’t fair to have four feral ones in my back yard.
Basette’s condition hasn’t changed much. She is still primarily staying in the kitchen. She’s developed the sniffles (clear discharge). I’ll ask the vet about that tomorrow.

I’ve been trying to get things unpacked in the apartment. Some days, like Wednesday, I’m super productive. Other days, like today, I’m not even close. I unpacked maybe one box tonight.

I went to take a nap and Stella curled up next to me under the covers. She jumped back out from the covers, went underneath, and came back out. She couldn’t settle in one place. She kept on stopping and then meowing almost like a bark. I put her in the bathroom with food. I’m…
Stella’s eyes are changing. Today her eyes are not very responsive to the light. When she opens them, the pupils stay wide and are slow to adjust to the light. The vet warned me on Friday that Stella might end up with detached retinas from the hypertension (high blood pressure). Basette ended up with detached…
