I had a long day again today. Part of the reason it was long was that I'm hormonal and therefore testy. I had to go get a mammogram, oh happy day, and the usual 30 minute process took over an hour. Fortunately, I had my knitting with me.
A few minutes ago, though, I enjoyed the perennial sight of Noel the cat, curled up under the Christmas tree.
One of her favorite hangouts, whether fresh or fake.
Noel is thirteen years old now. Adriana got her for me in 1993, and the first night she was home, she curled up under my chin to sleep. We've been BFF ever since. She loves me as much as I love her.
She's been feeling kinda puny lately - I think she has a cold. Cats are prone to respiratory infections. This morning she sneezed right in my face. Ew.
If she's not better in a couple of days, I'll take her to the vet. She hates, hates, hates the vet, the ride there, the crate, and everything else involved. But respiratory infections are serious, especially for older cats.
Okay, this post was interrupted for an extended kitty love fest. Sometimes ya just gotta stop and pat the cat.
