Callie has a funny bump on her lip that I think has grown a little.  She doesn't seem to mind it a bit.  I set a vet appointment for her on Monday.  Boo is going along to get a microchip.  Then all the cats will be chipped.  I will feel much better about that

Had a lovelier than lovely lunch with dear reader Jeanne at Hugo's, which contained this classic Jeanne moment:  Jeff Goldblum is walking from his table to the front door, saying hi to several people as he does.  I say, "Oh, there's Jeff Goldblum."  Jeanne looks around, doesn't really know WHERE to look despite the very tall and distinctive Mr. Goldblum, finally focuses on him and then turns back to me and utters this classic - "I don't know who he is."

Thanks for heating vibes, DR Jane.   The problem is, I'm not 100% sure that is a problem.  I'm still not used to having Central heat and air so I'm not sure how it works.   

It's warm now-- 68 degrees so I don't have it on.  Overnight the weatherman said it will go down in the upper 50's by morning so I am going to put it on when I go to bed and set it to 67 again.  We'll just have to see what happens.

Perhaps the central heating was set for p.m. when it should be a.m.?
  I don't think mine works with a timer.    It's just heat/cool  auto/fan and a button to set the target temp. up or down. 

And 17 degrees is way, way, way, way (that's FOUR) to cold for a hot house flower like me!


How in the heck are you ever going to see snow, if you continue to be a hot house flower?
  Thru the window, of course!  ;)

You should send that to Reader's Digest!

Too bad you don't need flea treatment, then you could go for chip and dip!

DR Elmore - HOLIDAY, by Vampire Weekend?


Ok, that's weird.  Just got through talking about vampire musicals with the DP and I open HHW, and this is the first thing I see.

  I agree.   You know, DR Jane, I never gave the chip a thought when Ann posted about that dog on Facebook--yet I've taken a couple of dogs to my local vet to be checked for one.   Most, sadly don't have one.

We've had enough dips around here to last a lifetime (the dips for ringworm).  Like your pun though

Ricky came with a chip from the shelter. They insist on it.  The next one to go to the vet was Callie, so I got her a chip.  Boo doesn't have one yet because there hasn't been a reason to go to the vet since I started doing this.  So I told them she's coming with us on Monday so I can do both of them in one visit.

They estimate something like 80% of lost animals with chips are reunited with owners.  Of course they are the people selling the chips, but seeing how it works at the vet, it's really amazingly easy for them to scan an animal and read the chip number.  I've registered the other two and will pay to register Boo too

Worst are people who have lost their pets and apparently no one found the pet and checked for a chip.

I think they are probably correct, although I didn't even notice it was there until I went down to the laundry room today.  I am looking forward to watching it.  Thank you, Jack!

I didn't get to tell you all about the poor turtle I found a few months back.

I was driving home and saw what I thought was gopher turtle (endangered species) trying to cross the road.  I turned the car around to go back to get him/her.  I was going to take it to a local park where it would be safe.  In just that little bit of time someone hit him/her.  It crushed the whole back side of the shell but it was alive and in pain.

I rushed him/her to a local emergency animal clinic and even the gal at the front desk said there aren't to many of them left in these parts.  They were very happy that I at least brought him/her in so they could try to help it. 

I called the next day to check on him/her but they wouldn't tell me anything.   At least  I know if they couldn't help he/she didn't suffer.

I'm not too concerned about Callie right now.  I've done some research that leads me to believe this is common in cats and probably not a big deal, but I'm going to get it checked as there are a number of mouth cancers common in cats and if it's something serious I want to catch it as soon as possible

When Echo was a puppy chips were fairly new and Keith was concerned it would be harmful.  To my regret she never had one.  Sherlock was chipped during one of his early vet visits.

I heard a story of a cat that was at our locak animal control.  It was going to be put down and was on the table when they finally checked for a chip and found one

Last Thursday evening of 2010.....hard to believe.

Last night I watched THE LAVENDER HILL MOB which I had never seen.....and had in fact avoided.  It was a most enjoyable and delightful movie.  Now I want to see it again!
