Update: Lyla's Spay Day

just spoke to the vet, and lyla is doing just fine!

in fact, she said lyla was very 'crabby' and had to get out some gloves to handle her. aww lyla. she's just like her momma. restrict us from eating, and we're not very pleasant.


[and yes, i'm hyping this jam again because i love it]

lyla's spay day!

good morning! lyla is currently 'under the knife' [i'm assuming] i dropped her off about an hour or two ago...and supposed to pick her up later this evening.



buster seems a little more concerned with where lyla is than she was when he was getting his alteration. occasionally, he'll walk around and cry for her. he's a very loving brother.

now, however, he's just chillin' next to me and taking a bath.


poor lyla. getting the snip snip. she's been my little medical emergency so far... so i'm a little nervous, although sure everything will be fine.



updates to come!

buster ballchop update...

sorry folks if i left you hanging! buster has been absolutely fine since his 'procedure' on friday. he was very happy to be home on friday night and not too out of it! in fact, he was running around and napping per usual. yay!

- aftershot -


next up... getting lyla's lil heart checked out this week to see if we can proceed with her surgery.

our new t-shirt!

i'll just come out and say it. i REALLY want to dress my kitties up in little clothes. i know they won't like it, but i can't help it. i glimpse at the racks and racks of dog clothes at the pet store and I get jealous. in fact, i wouldn't have even seriously entertained the notion [ok maybe] until an episode of 'the hills' inspired me. YES, you heard me right. not only am i admitting to watching [and loving] the hills... but it inspired me.

in episode 2 of the third season, LC is seen holding an ADORABLE kitty in an ADORABLE sweater/vest.



[all images from Lauren-Conrad.net. Visit there to get the haps on The Hills. : ) ] the kitty looks so calm. so happy. it freakin' loves its sweater!

i just had to dress up my kitties to be just as cute.

maybe i should have taken a cue from the petstores when kitty clothes were NOWHERE to be found. but that wouldn't stop me.

i found an extra-small baby rib dog T shirt @ american apparel and decided to purchase it. at the very least, with the way buster is growing he'll be able to fit into it soon, i pondered.

well... turns out that buster wasn't really a fan of the shirt. he didn't move too much and when he did, he was walking like a drunk kitty. here's a really boring video of him rolling around the floor.

.

but doesn't he look so handsome?


this is a good lesson in how chill buster is. he clearly wants the shirt off and won't move but he doesn't freak out. just walks along the wall and rubs along the floor somehow hoping that will magically help.




next up? lyla.
she hated the shirt even more than buster did. in fact, i was going to take a video of her and she was wriggling around and had it halfway off before i could even grab the camera to video. poor lyla. look at her persistance here.



so fine. kitties don't like the T-shirt. they didn't like the sleeves along their arms. maybe it was too big and restricting. my take away... maybe next time I'll try a sweater vest... so their walking isn't effected. i've gotta get them liking to wear SOMETHING!
