neat blog, cute story about the cat. It's always an adventure when dealing with felines. 
Keep up the great work! 
I volunteered to help at 
#4's school today for the yearly Keiki Triathlon. Keiki = kids in Hawaiian I was supervising the hoops the kids had to step through. I picked that station, figuring they'd knock the hoops around regularly, giving me something to do besides sit there and watch them sweat. The thing I forgot to check was shade availability. aka there was none. The cones had all kinds of volunteers because it was next to a line of shade trees. But, it was fun cheering the kids on. The 4th and 5th graders were definitely in it for speed. They worked hard trying to get around the course as many times as they could. The little kids traveled in packs and weren't real competitive for the most part. I had to laugh at some of them, they were so conscientious about making sure they stepped in every hoop and would go back if they missed one while other kids would just run right over the top of them, not really caring. Each class was representing a different country and would march around the course for a preliminary round waving their country's flags. I got a chuckle out of all the little dark haired dark eyed Hawaiian kids waving their flags for Norway and Ireland - they really didn't look the part just like my little blond haired didn't really look very Jaimacan.
Jake the wonder dog hasn't been feeling well the last couple of days. He woke me up every two hours last night with his whining and I'd have to take him outside for some relief for his upset stomach. Bonsai the cat's been sick lately too. He's got some kind of infection in his mouth. He's bleeding from the gums and, according to the vet, he's got a fever and swollen lymph nodes. YOu can just tell he's not feeling good. The vet doesn't know what's wrong with him, but gave us some medicine that'll hopefully take care of the problem. The other two cats are fine. Mouschi just came in the house with a gecko in her mouth. She was looking for Chloe and once she found her, let the gecko go so it could run around and Chloe could get her hunting skills honed. It's so funny when Mouschi does that. She sits back and supervises the younger cats and makes sure the prey doesn't get away. I think she's adoped Chloe as her own. Before he got sick, Bonsai had been doing the same, but now all he wants to do is sleep. Poor little guy.
