kitties

here's an update on the little kittens we have!  

the three little ones that were found under a house are getting a lot bigger!  they're still tiny, though.  and the tiniest one is still looking a little rough, but a lot better, so she's improving!

and they have found a home!  we've been hoping that there would be someone who would take all three of them together.  so the perfect people came along and want all three of them.  i'm really sad though, because it's always a good part of the day to go and play with them- they're always so cute and sweet!

haha!! the third one(that's the runt one) is sucking on the bed! they will all suckle on the bed sometimes- it's funny.

Here is the kitten we've had for a little while longer that roams around everywhere.  unfortunately, the other day when he was playing, he got his paw stuck under a door!  we x-rayed it, and he'd broken a toe.  so doc wrapped it up, and he has this huge cast on his leg!  when he'd first had it on, he laid on the floor like he couldn't get up and was whining/crying, but now he's used to it and runs around!

aww!  

i've never really been a cat person, but after these kittens and all the awesome cats that have come here, i'm looking forward to someday getting my own little kitten!  it will be a new experience.

funny story

we had a crisis the other day at work.

at one point, we were pretty busy- rachel had paged me over the walkies asking if i could take "Toto" up to the front.  so i went to the bathing room and she didn't have the cage tags up and there was one dog that kinda looked like it would be named Toto, and I paged back asking if it was the dog in the top cage, and she said yes.

So i took this dog up to the front and gave it to the lady up there.

Later on when we were getting ready to leave for lunch, i'd been walking alllll these dogs by myself and was wondering where rachel was.  when we were clocking out, she walked by with "Toto" and was like, recognize this dog?

Turns out, it wasn't that lady's dog!  She was a big, pretty old woman.  and she had no idea this dog wasn't the right one- her actual dog Toto was a different color, a lot skinnier, had a tail, and was a completely different breed... 

When I'd taken the dog to her, she said she'd carry him and was like, "oh he's so sweet!" and he was licking her face and she was hugging him.  She couldn't really carry him, and she was like, "he's heavy!" and i'd had to take him from her and put him on the ground- we'd even had a hard time putting its collar, because it was too tight!

But so for a while, unknown to me, everyone had been running around going, "where's Molly?"  and this dog is going on this crazy journey with some woman! Luckily, they had finally gotten in contact with this woman, and she was like, "I can't believe I took the wrong dog!"  

So I couldn't believe I'd given this woman the wrong dog, but she'd seemed so happy to see him that I wasn't thinking, oh, this could be the wrong dog.

It's also funny to me that that Molly seemed so happy to see this woman and was all licking her and just went along with her and was driving home with her!

Recently, I've started going to run/walk on the greenway.  The other day, I discovered a cool area that cut through to the Stones River-- it was really shallow and had a lot of rocks and was really pretty and had these huge stones you could walk across (like on the labyrinth, when ludo does that call and the rocks come up out of the water).  So i decided to walk across them and get some neat pictures.

This is the view towards the greenway from the middle of the river!

And right after this, I dropped my iphone in the water.

I wasn't even doing anything with it- I was just holding it!! And the next thing I knew, I was fumbling it and it flew into the water!

At first it seemed fine, but then a weird message kept popping up, and then after that it started making these really fast clicking noises, and then after that it froze.  So I can't get into anything that's on it, and I'm supposed to be getting a new phone in the mail soon...

I'll have the same number, but for now- I'm phoneless...

more vet stories

This is our little kitty that someone brought in because they didn't want him- he stays in the back surgery area and plays with all of the cords and practices pouncing, and he's so funny!

And these are three little kittens someone else brought in- so we've been raising them, which is fun.  One of the black ones is really, really tiny and scraggly, so we have to bottle feed him still.  

And lastly, this is Buster!  I already knew I liked bulldogs, but after working here, I've realized even more how much I like them!  They are so cute and have the funniest personalities.

yay

at work the other day, i got to paint a landscape in one of the boarding suites!  we decided to start decorating all the rooms, and for this room, Linda (the manager) had bought a giant Disney castle sticker and a tinkerbell sticker.  so i got to spend most of the day painting, which was really fun!

they're going to put up a frame around the castle picture so it will look like you're looking out of a window!
