    Wobbly Kiesha

    ByKim (Ceffyl) August 8, 2012

    Kiesha noted when I woke up and walked over to me. Her hind quarters were wobbly and she almost fell to the side several times. At that point, I forgot about Stephanie and was focused on Squeaky. I watched her closely, and she repeated the same type of movement every time I asked her to…

    Lessons learned from riding when not riding

    ByKim (Ceffyl) July 31, 2012August 2, 2012

    I went to the barn tonight to ride Kasane. It was a lovely evening: mild weather, light wind, bright sun. I brought out all of our tack to the outdoor ring, so she could eat and play while I got ready. At one point, she looked up from eating, and took off down the length…

    Food for the Squeakitty

    ByKim (Ceffyl) July 27, 2012August 10, 2012

    Kiesha is eating Weuva and Tiki Cat fish and chicken flavors. These brands have amazing looking food with real pieces of stuff in them. She is eating them and not leaving a drop. Related Images:

    Kasane learns consistent collection

    ByKim (Ceffyl) July 25, 2012

    After the power outage this afternoon, I packed up my gear and headed out to find a place with free wifi. The Sheetz station has a cafe with free wifi, so I headed there — and to the tack shop behind it. The tack shop is going out of business so everything is 50% off,…

    Kiesha is eating again

    ByKim (Ceffyl) July 23, 2012August 2, 2012

    I’ve found two brands of food that she really seems to like: Tiki Cat and Weruva. She loves the chicken flavors and some of the tuna fish ones. She’s also eating Now Senior kitty food very well. She’s started following me around room to room again. She is being more demanding about eating. All very…

    Studs in a jar

    ByKim (Ceffyl) July 14, 2012July 20, 2012

    For those of us who grew up on a horse breeding farm, the directions on the Stud Suds jar make for hysterical reading. In this case, the “studs” refer to metal studs that can be screwed into the bottom of horseshoes like cletes. It doesn’t mean the jar will let me fit a stallion in…

    Kiesha kinda eating, kinda not

    ByKim (Ceffyl) July 13, 2012July 18, 2012

    Kiesha (also known as the Squeakitty or Squeaky) is not doing very well. After the vet visit on July 8, the vet suggested feeding her only one type of food: EVO 95% beef wet food. Saturday evening, Kiesha ate the wet food like it was ambrosia. All of it scarfed without any pukage. Great, I…

    Squeaky visits the vet

    ByKim (Ceffyl) July 8, 2012July 16, 2012

    Kiesha has mostly stopped throwing up — at least she has stopped throwing up solid food. I was cleaning the office carpet this morning and noticed a lot of new puke spots of bile. Called the vet. Kiesha hasn’t been acting right, she doesn’t feel well, and she’s been throwing up for a few days….

    Bad kitty mommy

    ByKim (Ceffyl) July 4, 2012July 16, 2012

    I am a bad kitty mommy. I let Kiesha’s meds run out over the weekend and she was off of them for three days. I picked up her methimazole for her hyperthyroid disease yesterday along with some of her favorite kitty food (Merrick’s Grammys Pot Pie and Thanksgiving Dinner). Kiesha had her first dose on…

    No Man is an Island quote

    ByKim (Ceffyl) June 22, 2012

    Found this quote from a friend of mine on Facebook: “The beginning of love is the will to let those we love be perfectly themselves, the resolution not to twist them to fit our own image. If in loving them we do not love what they are, but only their potential likeness to ourselves, then…

    Ankles and horses and gimpiness land

    ByKim (Ceffyl) June 20, 2012July 11, 2012

    Prize and Kasane are both el blimpos because of the grass (even with grazing muzzles on both of them). They are currently dry lotted during the day. What they really need is a good dose of consistent exercise. Unfortunately with my ankle still being sprained I can’t do as much as I would like. I…

    In memory of grandmothers

    ByKim (Ceffyl) June 7, 2012June 14, 2012

    There have been too many deaths in the past year: friends, family, horses. A friend of mine told me that their grandmother had recently passed away. I listened to as much as they wanted to say and just kept them company. My friend wasn’t close to their grandparent, but that doesn’t make it any easier….

    Parking redux

    ByKim (Ceffyl) June 6, 2012June 7, 2012

    The last few nights I’ve watched for the yellow flashing lights of the tow truck. The truck is there every night some where between 9:00 and 11:00 PM. Last night, three of the visitor spots had resident vehicles in them. Again. I’ve shown my friends the areas where there are blocks of visitor spots so…

    Geekery at work

    ByKim (Ceffyl) June 5, 2012June 7, 2012

    I work with a bunch of system administrators. For a geek like me, it’s a great opportunity to get to play with the latest technologies and learn from experts. (Okay, so I don’t get to play with the technology. I watch other people use the tech and I write about it.) A high priority ticket…

    Parking policy paranoia

    ByKim (Ceffyl) June 3, 2012June 5, 2012

    A friend from my Wednesday WFRP gaming group visited today to review some of the material for the next gaming session. Parking at the complex was tight: no visitor spaces available close by. (Three of the six visitor spaces had residents in them again.) I gave my friend the visitor pass for the car. We…
