Alska's on the sun deck today waiting to see who will join him today - or will be close by in the water and grass.
 
I have been home on heat with a strained back so Alska was getting a mid-day snack which have kept his numbers in a good range.

Only 2 more days of calm before I pick up my mothers cat. I hope to have her integrated quickly. Of course that will depend on her. She's a tough old broad. I don't think she will be a challenge to Alska. She's just never been around so many cats before.
 
Enjoy the calm before the "storm." It'll work out some how. You said cat. Did you find a home for your mother's other cat?
 
Yes-the male cat will be living with my mom's next door neighbor and close friend. Her offer is a true blessing.
 
Oh that's so wonderful. What a great blessing for sure that he gets to go with someone that new your mom.
 
It's too bad the neighbor couldn't take both of them, they have been together for a long time. Can't look a gift horse in the mouth I suppose. Personally, if I could have taken 1, I would have taken both, just due to the circumstances.

Hope your back gets to feeling better. Have you ever tried COLD instead of heat on it? Doctors now are recommending cold instead of heat, because heat adds to the inflammation that causes pain, even though it feels better temporarily, you're making it worse in the long run. Just thought I'd throw that tidbit of info atcha! :lol:

If you can get it, buy Biofreeze. The greatest stuff ever came in a tube! Chiropractors, physical therapist, etc sell it and you can buy it on Amazon too. It's like BenGay to the 100th power. It was given to me after my shoulder surgery to help relieve the pain and if it will help that, it'll help anything. My physical therapist used it on me every time I was in there. Great stuff! There is nothing you can buy in a store that works the way Biofreeze does. I tried them all when I ran out, not happening, had to get more from my PT. The stuff is seriously amazing! And it only has a light minty smell that is gone in 10 minutes, so you don't smell like Vaporub all day. :lol:
 
I forgot all about Biofreeze. I used to get it for my mom. Good suggestion. My car battery froze and I had to limp to the bus stop this morning and then figure out how to get home from the Pentagon. BF came by and jumped battery so hopefully tomorrow I can get to the store.

As for separating the cats, my mom's neighbor wanted to take both but I couldn't straddle her with all of Wiggie's potential medical problems and possible demise. These cats are in no way bonded. In fact when we found homes for all her kittens but my mom wanted to keep the boy, she got really pissed. Consequently, they are not close. I have no regrets in separating them.
