My mother has been suffering with intense pain from a herniated disk in her lower back. This last week she went and had surgery to try to get some relief.
The great thing is that my sisters are close by to help, and Mary is totaly connected on the medical side of things!
Our mom is now home and says there is significantly less pain! Whoo-yah!
This picture of "Princess" and her three new babies brought a ton of memories back for me.
We always had cats on the farm when I was growing up, and in fact I even had baby kittens delivered in my arms while hauling one momma cat to the quanset hut / shop!
When I was older and would visit Mom and Dat in Montana, there always was a cat in there lives. Either inherited from my sisters or a wandering cat that adopted my parents.
I mean, what cat wouldn't adopt my Dad! There was many a night when he came home from grave yard shift to treat the cats to half n half and tuna!! And don't mess with his cats, just ask Fluffy in cat heaven what happens when you decide to whoop ass on one of Jean's. It does not end well!
So, when "Princess" showed up and was treated to half n half and tuna in Minton, AZ, she was no dummy and decided this was a great place to settle in and have some babies!
This picture also reminds me of my Mom, sitting in the background watching and worrying about her kids!
So, Joanne, Marla, Mary, Jordy, and I are hoping that "Princess" and at least one of the new kittens have a new home with Jean and Mary in Minton, AZ!
It would be like winning the Lotto if you are a cat!
I'm glad to hear that your Mom is on the mend. Your story about your Dad and the cats is priceless. It gave us warm fuzzies. I'm thinking that any cat that lands in any Kriz house has won the lottery!
