Good evening, Everybun!

We're enjoying having nothing to report today. Charlie's follow-up is on Tuesday, and until then, let's just forget about it.

My hoomin is trying to squeeze all he can from these tar pit-free days. 

In the mornings, we would retreat to the bundo sitting atop another bundo. My hoomin would sit down next to us, open a book with his left paw, and put his right paw in our space - and start administering head rubs. Charlie stretched out, half asleep, and tolerated the affection for as long as she could. When she had enough, Charlie sat up, gently took the hoomin's paw in her teeth, and pushed it outside. "That's enough of that. You may buzz off now, hoomin!"

The paw would disappear and reappear a second later with treats.

This evening we'll work on the new painting for Bunfest. We took some reference photos yesterday, but we'll need to repeat the exercise. 

And what to call this wonder? There's the "Charlie, Gus, and Mel I" idea, or maybe, "Olympia is now a Lionhead I." "I," because it will be painted more than once. We just know it.

During one of the History of Modern Art lectures, Professor Mel Leipzig covered a lot of Édouard Manet's paintings, starting with Olympia. The exposition covered the impact Olympia had on other artists' work and how Olympia kept reflecting in Manet's other pieces. When Mel got to this particular still life (Fish -Still Life, 1864), he said, "And now Olympia is a dead fish!"
 
We want to argue that Olympia is a Lionhead! Of course, you can listen to the lecture and decide for yourself.

And you're right - it's a nice problem to have. 

Good night and good luck!
- Gus

Espresso, Charlie, and Gus Update

Hoppy Valentine's Day, Everybunny!

I think Charlie binkied this morning! Go figure. 

The appointment on Tuesday went well - the daily sub-q fluids are reducing the calcification, and Charlie's kidney function is good. I had the scribe type "great," and then made him change it to "good," because I just don't know what the range is, what is "good," and what is "great."

The short of it is we survived another week-year. The appointment was one of those "doctor-tech" appointments, and I think I know why it rubs my hoomin the wrong way. It's not that Charlie needed a full-blown exam and workup. My hoomin did. There ought to be something just for hoomins hoomins. If Avian or Keystone clinics had coffee bars and were open 24/7, the sorry sod would never leave.

We are continuing the daily regimen of 50 ml sub-q fluids for another week. Aside from the "daily stabbing," Charlie is really doing well. We're learning how to keep staying in the moment, and with her, and next to her as much as we can. 

Unfortunately, that means the stinker meat sack is trying to stay with me as well, and all I do is make shives from apple sticks.

We'll keep you posted!

Matilda

Oh, you and your pearls of wisdom, hoomin. At least we can grow stuff with mine!

- Thank you, Jen, and SFHRR

P.S.: Matilda was rescued as a stray in Sarasota. She's sweet and gentle. She's blind in one eye. Does it stop her? Not really. She can disapprove as much anybun else. Only more so ;-)  https://www.wagtopia.com/search/pet?id=1991814&name=Matilda
