Those tourists you speak of were still trapped as of last night so
their money did NOT buy them a rescue either. They are in no better and no worse shape than anyone else trapped in the city.
Sadly, this affected everyone there, no matter what kind of money they did or did not have.
Update on my kitten to everyone who is interested.
I talked with the vet this morning. Apparently, he had explosive diarrhea last night and he has a temperature of 106. They have started IV fluids and antibiotics. The vet thinks he has a virus. They checked for feline leukemia and it was negative and they said all his other blood work was negative too. I am supposed to call back this afternoon to find out if he is doing better and when he will be able to come home.
BTW, his name is Tom (pretty original, huh?). I don't think I ever posted his name.
Vet said 6 months for my female kitten. sm
if I remember correctly, it was about the same for my male, but he's 9 years old, so I don't remember exactly. I think the males can be done a month earlier though.
I wouldn't do any younger than that, but would rather see it done earlier than not at all.
The people we got our kitten from have 2 female cats, both having itters of 6 within weeks of each other. If that wasn't bad enough, they both had 2 more litters of 5 each after we got our kitten and then one of them just had 3 more and the other one is due any day now. That is just one spring/summer season with 25 kittens from 2 cats in one household and still waiting for the last batch. 
May God bless the miners trapped in West Virginia. There is power in prayer. Let's rally MTs!
How do you break a kitten from chewing on and playing with your cords and wires? I just got my
daughter a kitten. I haven't had a cat since I was a kid. I'm kind of a dog person. The darn thing keeps playing with all the cords and wires under my desk and jumping on my desk and walking on my C-phone and keyboard and knocking stuff off my desk. I'm losing my mind! He's very playful and he is very rough. He is always attacking my feet while I'm working and not to sound like a baby, but it really hurts! I put him in "time-out" by putting him in a separate room and shutting the door for like 10 or 15 minutes, but he just goes right back to his bad behavior. It's definitely not like training a dog!
Help me please! My line count is suffering on account of his silly cat and I don't think my boss is going to buy my cat as a legitmate excuse!
