Update on our patient
The cat that had been given up for dead has become a lively he-beast
as he recuperates from his brush with diabetic coma. Hudley is still being sequestered, largely because he is terrified of our six, especially Roxie who has been having impolite words with him. We have been allowing short supervised visits. Stosh and Philip seem fairly nonchalant, and Sabrina is surprisingly agreeable. She is usually the one with the surliest mouth. Hudley has been venturing more and more downstairs, albeit cautiously. Upstairs he runs around and has been having a ball jumping in and out of all the shelves and cubbyholes in the computer room. His coat is regaining the delightful black-panther sheen I recall from his youth. And the appetite! I have never seen a cat enjoy food more. He will try to take the can out of our hands when feeding him, or push the dish away so he can nose in. The noise is a riot: "Mm yum snarf snort grinch munch yum snarf." I tried to do that as one word, but the autocorrect on an iPad turns it into the name of a remote village in Thailand. Word has it that his family may be able to take him in one to two months. Blessed be, Baha |

He will try to take the can out of our hands when feeding him, or push the dish away so he can nose in. You've done a great thing for him. The noise is a riot: "Mm yum snarf snort grinch munch yum snarf." I tried to do that as one word, but the autocorrect on an iPad turns it into the name of a remote village in Thailand. spew! That's hilarious. Some of the autocorrects just leave you scratching your head (such as one I read where a person typed the word "drive" and the iphone turned that into "badonkadonk"). At least the combined word from the phrase you quoted above could conceivably be mistaken for a Thai name. Word has it that his family may be able to take him in one to two months. That would be great! Joyce -- The Internet is on computers now! -- Homer Simpson |
