The weather is excellent. The cats are feeling well. After this week of heat, storms, and sick kitties today is, indeed, a very good day. If I have enough energy left at the end of the day today –this was my Saturday to work– I may go out stargazing; the skies don't get much clearer around here than they are right now and expected to be tonight. We don't get many nights like this in an entire year and, with Jupiter well placed for viewing, I'd like to get out and take a look at it and some deep sky objects. Nice comfortable temperatures and humidities, too.
Cat updates: Missy's acting better than she has in quite some time, apparently responding well to insulin therapy at a slightly higher dosage: 5 units per day. Her coat and skin condition continue to improve as well. It looks like we got her to the vet just in time; diabetes can be very sneaky. Today Tasha is enjoying the fresh air and sights through the patio door screen, has kept down meals and treats so far, and has reportedly been awake all morning. We still don't know what the matter was (or is) with Tash but I'm happy for any improvements. We talk to the vet again on Monday and it will be interesting to hear what he says. In the mean time, we hope for an uneventful and beautiful weekend.
