This is only partially OT. My Afternoon homecare has been a bit "unpredictable". I've had the same PCA for that slot since Sept '06 when Joanne was injured. Due to financial issues she didn't get her car inspected in time so she didn't dare drive from NH border to W Mass. where I live. The person in charge decided to replace her. They found a woman who lives in T. I was told she was cat friendly. Sherry the sceduler came out with her so that we could train her. Sherry and I warned her that Spicey is my Guard cat and takes a while to accept new aides. Well the next day she walks almost on top and Spicey removes some of her skin. Next day same thing. She said Spicey must be declawed. Which I objected to and explained why. She was adamite (spelling fart here). Then it was suggest I crate her. Tak, Joyce, and Charleen know this isn't possible. Part of why Spicey was on edge with her because I kept having to re-explain how to do things. I was as patient as possible but I know Spicey picked up on what I was feeling. Today thanks to Sherry and Cindy resolving her inspection issues I found out Cindy will be back Weds. Which is great because Cindy is Spicey's GBP (Great Bestower of Peparoni.). I'm glad that you got that resolved! The new aide didn't sound like she was fitting into that role at all. And as for declawing Spicey, that's just ridiculous. Both Charleen and I have received whaps from Spicey, Charleen on her shoe, and me on the back of the hand. Spice is a small, light cat with tiny, dainty, multicolored paws, and she doesn't have the inertia to make her slashes hurt. Just wear socks that go up to the knees, and you're fine. Now I must plug the video of the pretty girl that we took last year http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G0XRAJDoLIE |

Suz&Spicey- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Besides being upsetting it showed how little she knew and understood cats. I explained to her that declawing was removing more then the claw, but she still thought it was a good idea. Margi one of my overnight aides is a Vet Tech, she said that most Vets will no longer declaw. Suz&Spicey |

Suz&Spicey From the PCA's I''ve met sometimes in hospital rooms hired to monitor patients, I have notice that they can be just as mouthy and nervy as nurses.....but lack the training/knowledge/brains of nurses and I soon learned not to take any lip from them when going about my work. Happy to hear you retain your old standby PCA again. Does Spicey *really* like pepperoni?- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - True,and some of my aides have been wonderful. Suz&Spicey |

When I visited you, I remember you put Spicey in your bedroom because she seemed quite upset by my presence. Could you have done that? I guess it's moot now, since you're getting Cindy back, but if this ever comes up in the future, maybe you could do that? Can't believe this woman felt entitled to tell you you had to declaw your cat. -- Joyce � ^..^ (To email me, remove the X's from my user name.) Yup typed with my own little pencil & pinkies. Part of what I need is done in the bedroom. So shutting her in there wouldn't work. Suz&Spicey |

Spicey is a good and caring cat and will deal with interlopers that don't have your best interest at heart. Jo |
