the "other child"

Blissful

It has been awhile since Sammy got any blog time, but his activity has been noteworthy lately - so here ya go, Sam.

During the holidays we noticed Sammy seemed to be losing weight. Now, don't forget, this was a 17 lb cat... he could manage to lose a few lbs. It was around New Years that I thought "wow, he is really losing some weight!" - but he was otherwise acting normal. Well, around the beginning of February, suddenly he was lethargic and so the worry set in. When he became extremely lethargic over the weekend (sickness always on the weekend...!), I took him in first thing Monday. $$$$$$ later, he appeared "perfect". Even his weight, now a mere 12 lbs, was now in the "normal" range. By that night (after being poked and prodded at the vet), he was already acting better. Bah! He now seems to be gaining weight again... so maybe it really was a new years resolution? Who knows! What a cat...

After hulling a million packages of strawberries... Sammy decided the discard pile would be a great place to sit down for a spell.
