Playing with the camera on the Note 2 to check the storage card. Squeaky wasn’t amused. The good thing is that the card seems to be working okay again.
Stella got fluids today — and had some good news! She lost a few ounces last week. Today she was back up to 5 pounds. It’s a gain of one or two ounces, but that’s a lot for a little cat. Stella has been surprisingly good for her fluids. She knows we’re trying to help…
