There will be other "Santa Barbara" days. Stay home with the girl until she's 100%, then she can take that car trip to have some fun!

We are also coming in on the end of this one, really glad Caira Sue is returning to her old self. We were at Armstong Woods today and the three of you were in our thoughts.
Take care and we'll see you three on the ninth, your bud, Shelby Crowder-Fawcett, the P.P.
Sorry I'm late guys- I'm not home and just got access to a computer to check in-
I'm glad she is feeling better- but dang it, quit scaring your mom!
Karen and the pug girls
Caira Sue! Do. Not. Scare. Mom. Especially not today! Hope you are feeling better and have kicked those little kitten heinies into the next room. They are kind of like skwirls, aren't they? I could help you with that
. Well, maybe I could after I get my lessons from Rodent Master Spirit Yoda.
Thinking of you and sending you BIG love and kisses,

Oh, thank goodness Caira Sue is better somewhat! I almost didn't want to read the entry!
Comet - 1999 to 2011
She departed us unexpectedly January 23, 2011 at the age of 12 1/2.
She was born with a deformed front leg and a tripawd all of her life.
Oh geeze, I don't log on for a few days and an all hell breaks loose! Gosh, Mary, what a scare! I am sooooo glad that Caira Sue is hopping and hungry again! Nova wishes she could give her her prized beef trachea from Santa to help her feel better.
Sending lots of love and healing thoughts your way...
Peace, love, and beef trachea...

Jake, 10yr old golden retriever (fractured his front right leg on 9/1, bone biopsy revealed osteosarcoma on 9/10, amputation on 9/17) and his family Marguerite, Jacques and Wolfie, 5yr old german shepherd and the newest addition to the family, Nala, a 7mth old Bengal mix kittie. Jake lost his battle on 11/9/2009, almost 8 weeks after his surgery. We will never forget our sweet golden angel… http://jakesjou.....ipawds.com ….. CANCER SUCKS!
Nova, I want to sign all my letters now with "peace, love and beef trachea!" How cool is that?
Caira spiked a temp today again. I noticed she was all lethargic and yep, temp up. Decided to get the tuna water started. As she was lapping it up from her bed, I asked Adam if he had ever heard of the healing power of tuna water-ha! It gets her to drink a good 3 1/2-4 cups of water though! And just like yesterday, about an hour later she popped up and was ready to go out. 3 hours later she was chasing Adam around the living room with her rubber rings trying to get him to play. Of course, I now wonder if this is going to be an every day event and worry about not being here when she needs tuna water. It also makes me think I need to go buy more tuna in water!
Thanks everyone for your continued encouraging thoughts and support.

May 2001-Jan 21, 2010.....I'm a dog and I'm AWESOME!..... Always.
Wow Mary, now we know, Tuna Water is the secret ingredient to healing our Tripawds! So glad it worked again. What if you left bowls of tuna water out all over the house while you're away?
Mmmmmmm....tuna water.....
