September Month in Review

Ah - I so love long weekends - we started off the month with lots of critter time.  Labor Day weekend was relaxing.  Hubby interfaced much more than usual with the littlest critter in preparation for my upcoming business trip.  Emma experienced a couple of days of upset puppy tummy - a large bowl of rice, chicken and broth seemed to do the trick in getting her all fixed up.

I traveled for work for a week and the hubs did a great job of assuming the zookeeper duties.  I missed them like crazy but they seemed to be just fine when I returned.

Phoebe had a swollen lip - this happens every so often and I treat it with colloidal silver both topically and in the water and that seems to fix it right up.  I believe this to be some sort of an allergic reaction - perhaps to the chemical stuff that came on the cat tree?  She seems to feel fine, eats, plays - nothing changes and it doesn't seem to hurt when I poke and prod it.  She is back to 100% and doing great.  The others all seem happy and healthy as well.

We are making the transition from summer to fall which will result to screen doors and windows open which all the critters love.  Emma is still being excessively uncooperative about getting her picture taken.  Don't think we don't love her just because she isn't featured so much these days - hopefully this will be a short lived phase for her.

All in all a great critter month - but then - when isn't having these guys around great??
