As you know if you read Paul's blog, we got a new kitten on the 23rd.
She's such a sweetheart. She's been quiet as a mouse and extremely meek and mellow for a 3 month old kitten. She's a very cuddly, lovey kitten.
Well, turns out there's a very good reason she's been so mellow. She's sick with a horrible cold. Her sister had a bad one when we was looking at them and apparently she caught it from Noelle before we brought her home.
I called one of my best friends who is a long-time cat owner and she said the one time her kitties got a cold she ground up a Vitamin C tablet and sprinkled about a third of it in their wet food and they got over it in a couple days. She also added that she didn't know if that was because of the vitamin C tabs or just a happy co-incidence, but that's what worked for her babies.
I just hope Logan doesn't get it from Lucy. I guarantee he won't be a sweet mellow kitty if he gets a cold- he'll be the whiny, grumpy old man from Hades. I don't want either of them sick.....
BTW- can humans catch a cold from a cat? Just askin'..........

Just be sure not to give the cat aspirin! I don't know if humans can get a cold from cats, but they sure are drowziness carriers ...
Hope the kitten gets better and no one catches anything but some refreshing zzz's.
Nah- we don't even have aspirin in the house. we take non- aspirin stuff.
Lucy seems to be improving a bit and Logan is even beginning to come round and sniff and stare at her. I hope to see them curled up together in a chair napping within a month.
Am I being optimistic?
