Hi All...

I'm so excited... I finally got the new pictures of the kids. Ya know.. I didn't think Gidget was growing much, but when I see the difference in these pictures from the first ones... I can definitely see it. She still wears a 12" collar (now latched on the last notch), so she's not too big... but it will be time for a new collar soon. I don't remember if I told you, but she now weighs 14 pounds. She was only 6 pounds when she came to live with us on February 19th.

Mike is doing really well. He's not eating as much as I think he should, but I kind of sneak food to him by giving him Purina Beneful dog food in place of treats (they taste good, and since they're so much different from his Wellness food, he thinks they're treats). So, at least he's eating something.

Yesterday was such a beautiful day. All three of us went for a (semi) long walk. We would have walked further, but Mike was favoring his leg a little and mine was hurting a bit too, so I figured we'd play it safe and turn around and come home. They were both soooooooo happy to go. It was Gidget's first "real" walk. Up until yesterday we'd only walked back to the back of the property and back a few times for some exercise and to let her run off some energy. She did really well on the walk. Mike was in his glory.. taking over the sidewalk and marking "his" territory every fifteen feet or so. :-D It's been really cold and damp today, but as soon as the weather changes, we're going to make this a daily thing.

Hi Amy... Thanks for stopping in and posting. It's always great to hear from you. Congratulations (again) on graduation. I am so very proud of you!!!

Ok.. here's the link to all of the kid's pictures. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do. The two boys are my Grandson's Brandon and Chris.

If any of you missed the original set of pictures I posted... here's a link to that one too... you'll be able to see how she's grown by comparison.

Dear Joanna,

If Debbie presented an introductory statement including the cost and plea to her future donors about Jack's condition, the website could be up and running in a day or two. The website would have an Apple URL not a private domain name but we could attach it as a link to as many sites as possable... However, I am not sure if this would be the quickest way to raise the money. If Debbie wants me to create a website, I need her to email me the requested information. I would start working on one immediately... However, I do not have any experience with a PayPal account. Could one be attached to your blog?

Please IMOM we really need your help here...

Much love to you, Mike and Katie from catwatching.gif guardian angel rt and im.
