Salty, Jill did nothing entertaining today, she sat around and watched football ALL day, so here's another blast from the past so you can see how far she's come....day I brought her home from the hospital, 3 days post amputation:

Jill is a 9-year-old tuxedo kitty. She was diagnosed with Osteosarcoma in June 2012 on her toe in her right hind leg. Her leg was amputated on 12/12/12 and she completed four rounds of chemo (2 of Carbo, 2 of Doxy) in April 2013.

268!
Murphy is a five year old Lab/Chessie cross. He was hit by a car on 10/29/12 and became a Tripawd on 11/24/12. On 2/5/13, he had a total hip replacement on his remaining back leg. He has absolutely no idea that he has only three legs!
UPDATE: Murphy lived his life to the fullest, right up until an aggressive bone lesion took him across the Rainbow Bridge on April 9, 2015 and he gained his membership in the April Angels. Run free, my love. You deserve it!

Here is today's video Salt...........this is my new attempt in getting jack to exercise, they told me at the pet store cats go nuts for this toy. So....looks like he's working out the top half of his body, but his lazy butt won't get UP....and there's jill in the background looking at him like "you stupid idiot........."

281 and a video! Yes i deedy...making me smile!!
PEPPER! Jack is an exercise machine!!! It's exhausting to watch him expend soooooo much energy! 
Poor sweet Jack, he's just not built to be a "six pack abs" kind of man! But he did a pretty good jobe of mastering tje roll-over.....two times! And for just a few seco ds, his little chubby paws moved at lightening speed!
And you read Jill's mind perfectly.....you just kow that's exactly what Jills thinking! Ilove these cats.....and your comments are always spot o !
Lets go for 300 by tomorrow ight and I bet Jack will do so e push ups !
Love you guys!
salt and Happy Hannah
