Further Adventures in Cat Sitting

Well, I'm done my first round of cat sitting. My sister and her family are back and I was able to regale them with my oh so hilarious adventures this past week. Donna thinks she will be able to use her steam cleaner thingy to get the cat pee smell from my suitcase. I certainly hope so cuz I love that little suitcase.

Since said cat pee experience, I've had to continue carrying Magic down to the basement to use the kitty litter. She fights me the whole way. I have claw marks all over my right arm from her...and this is unusual. Until this past week, she's never, EVER, scratched me. She really hates the basement. And we don't know why. The other two cats have no problem with it. Must be some smell down there she doesn't like.

And when Magic is behaving herself (sort of), it's Sasha (the oldest cat, she'll be 16 next month) show is having the hard time. Sasha I can understand. She's nearly 16 and she's showing her age. I have to give her a pill every day so that she doesn't poop all over the place. Even with the pill, some times she has accidents. Like on Friday. What a joy it was to clean THAT up. I won't go into details, but it was pretty disgusting.

As Colin said, "You might as well be taking care of small children." At least I have 2 days rest before I start the second wave of cat sitting. Donna was in NS on vacay this past week, and now she and the boys are going with Doug to Dallas on business. I'll only have them for a few days but that'll be fine. Hopefully I'll get to the lake on the weekend.
