What a week! It started off with taking Sebastain in on Monday to be put to sleep. He had collapsed on the sitter Sunday and wasn’t coming out of it. We think he was between 15 and 17 years old and it was just time.

Then Tuesday, Ken smelled something from the Max’s cast that was not very nice and so he and Tigger had to go to the vet. Poor Max! His cast rubbed a huge raw place under his arm and so they put him in a short cast and now he has to have antibiotics several times a day along with that raw place washed with Betadine solution 3 times a day. He’s handling it pretty well but we did have to put a radar dome on him to keep him from licking the sore place.

Tigger had some kind of allergic reaction to we think the cedar shavings last weekend. He wasn’t getting any better on just Benadryl, so the vet gave him a shot of steriods and put him on antibiotics, too. Between all that and the oatmeal baths, he’s looking much better.

Ken left today for shows in Concord, NC (just north east of Charlotte). I’m going to go up Saturday and hopefully be there in time to see him show. He twisted my arm into entering Savannah which is the last weekend of this month, so I’ll be going there by myself and trying to finish Butterfly.

That’s all there is for now.

Love to all,

Margaret
