Espresso, Charlie, and Gus Update

Charlie's "winnings" from the bladder expression.

The first cold front of the season!

Hellos, Everybun!

We're doing pretty well. Charlie's bladder expression went well - Dr. Zellner got a whole lot of crud out of Charlie. Better yet, Charlie did not seem too upset by it. By seven in the evening, she was out and noming hay from her hay bowl as if nothing ever happened. A lot of loafing "tucks out."

We did the evening meds late, and as gently as possible, all with extra, extra treats on top. We even got to art.

And now for something completely different. Friday morning, my hoomin stuck his nose outside, and there it was - the cold front. No, not a blizzard or anything fun like that, don't be silly - just nice, cool, dry air. How long has it been!?

Here's the strange thing - in the afternoon it felt like a warm, Spring day. It felt like Easter should be just around the corner, not Halloween. That's how this place gets you - it tries to confuse you until you can't tell what time it is or where you are. Next thing you know, the buzzards want to hang out with you. And that's if you didn't get swallowed by a sinkhole.

In the evening, Charlie became very active and couldn't get enough treats and cookies. She almost binkied.

This morning she was rearing to go - bright-eyed and bushy-tailed. The morning fluids and meds went well, and she inhaled her sprig of mint with a raspberry and blueberry.

We can't stop thinking about how much building material came out of Charlie. It must have been a huge relief for her. So keep your paws crossed - we might be in for one of those good old days again.

We'll keep you posted!

Alexander

Do you sometimes feel like a three-legged bunn in a four-legged race?
Well - do you - hoomin!?

- Thank you, Susan!

PS: Maybe the lesson from Alexander and Charlie (yes, Charlie) is to never give up and never surrender, even if it feels like a tripod in a four-legged race. And thank you for giving AL a chance ;-)

The Bunday Evening Thumps

Bun evening, Everybun!

Wait - can you believe it?
The days are about to get shorter than the nights. And there are no blobs in the Atlantic that we need to worry about!

And what does the meatsack do to celebrate? He sticks his uninvited head in the art room, and worries about Charlie not loafing to his liking. 

"Dur durr? Dur dur dur? Durr dud Metacam? Dur dur. Metacam."

They ended up wrestling, but Charlie got her and is snoozing, making tiny snoring noises.

Today's been a purely ad recharge day. We did fluids an hour late. The biped had to coffee to stay awake for that, but then just crashed. There comes a point when coffee only
stirs up crazy. And bun has to take a nappy break or else.

That said, we'll art tonight again.

Keep your paws crossed for our expression appointment tomorrow. Keep them good waves coming.

Good night and good luck!
- Gus

P.S.: That little drawing of Charlie was purely an experiment with materials. We used a sheet of plastic 'paper' with a nice texture, but regular watercolors don't take well to it.
The pen for the linework took forever to dry and kept dissolving when mixed with water. Sometimes you try something new just to see what happens. And we're not complaining - there were cookies!
