Good(ish) Friday


Furst up, we wanna wish all our pals who celebrate a happy Good Friday and a happy Passover. We know it's tough to celebrate anything right now, but we hope you have a good holiday anyways. Hopefully wif somefin tasty to eat!  


But we also ha some GOOD news of our own.


Da three of us seem to be on the road to recovery. Angelique is only occasionally sneezing now. Bowie and I are both voluntarily eating (Bowie refused to eat for a few days and had to be spoon-fed). I think he's a lil scared of my momma or somefin - he'll eat when she watches him. Maybe he's seen her cram pills down the old dog's throat, MOL. 


But we're both still sneezing and our breathing is rattley.  


Some of pals have wondered if maybe we have da COVID-19. And we get why, it's nonstop on TV and da top of da people's minds. Da truth are - we don't know and we probably never will. As far as we know, none of our humans has had COVID. And it duzn't seem like very many cats get it (yeah, we've seen the news about the Belgian cat, the tigers, and the Chinese study). What we can't find is real information on what COVID symptoms would be in a cat - we don't have a dry cough like da humans are supposed to get (and the tigers apparently had). We are sneezy and obviously congested. Bowie and I both had a fever at one point, but after getting started on antibiotics, we haven't had that. And we haven't had any digestive issues (which apparently the Belgian cat did). We're all inside-only, so we don't know HOW we got sick unless it wuz something the humans or the dogs (none of who are sick) carried in. And since so many humans can't get coronavirus tests, we know we won't.   


So that's just speculation. The mommas (and Bowie's daddy) aren't treating us like we're contagious. We're all eating now and Bowie and I has been getting sauna treatments (sitting in a steamy bathroom) to help wif da congestion. And we're all getting our antibiotics and being watched nonstop. At least the mommas don't have other plans, MOL.

  5. We heard from your doggie sisters that you kitties are feeling better, and so is Finley. My kitty cat cousins Maddie, Tibie, and Hani have been having some illnesses too. Maybe it's the time of the year. But I hope by Easter Sunday you and your family are feeling well and having a nice big yummy dinner!

  6. Glad you all are starting to feel better. Feeling like eating on your own is the best part . Maybe you'll get some bacon - or Easter HAM ! Around here the iffy weather could bring on sniffles and runny eyes, so we hope some warm days and window whiffies might help (or not, id there's lots of pollen.) Still sending purrayers and POTP.
