Our girl is back — mostly. Tamale is much improved over this morning and especially last night (see previous post). She has been eating and her eyes are brighter. I did not give her fluids today in case her lungs and heart are filling with water, but her resting breathing rate is steady at 20-24 breaths per minute (good), so maybe she threw a clot and had a stroke. Whatever the cause, I’m still on alert and monitoring her every movement. Thank you all for caring about little Tamale. We send love and hugs back . #tamaleceo #tamalecandoit #toughasnailstamale #tamalestrong

Tamale’s pretty much back to being her normal old cat self - YAY! ... I worked on the SRC Christmas line today until she woke up. Tamale was more interested in luvvies than the toys. When the CEO sez, “pet me!” it’s my duty to obey. Gladly. Thank you all for cheering this little girl on - she’s back to doing great!

She’s back! Happy Caturday from me and Tamale - who is still a tad on the mend. But soooo much better! Listen to narrations - I’m pretty sure her pain was a musculoskeletal injury. Not a stroke. Right before she started to act like she was in pain (see previous posts), Tamale snagged her claw on the carpet as I was walking her. She took a hard fall and tumbled into a somersault, which could very well have stressed the shoulder - perhaps the rhomboid or trapezius or just the joint. I know from my own experience how painful and

THROWBACK July 2018, when Tamale walked all over the place! She was already starting to have hip/spine problems but she absolutely adored exploring the Ranchito. This trek is short: our walks down to the creek we’re about 10 times longer. It’s kinda heartbreaking to know she’ll never do a walk like this again. But she’s adapted — SWIPE to see last week’s Tamale — and still seems happy and vibrant. Happy Throwback Thursday-Tamale hopes your memories today are fun and bring you cheer! . . #tamaleceo #tamalecandoit #toughasnailstamale #tamalestrong #tamaleclub #tamalesassypants #tamale2020 #catvideo #cutecatvideo #tamaleceovideo #throwbackthursdaytamale #throwbackthursday . #TamaleCEO and

Sunday would not be Funday without LEILA and her Scatterballs. She and our friend @mochikit have been collecting them for years, first with Crystal ☯️ and now with Angel ... But I think Leila has the world’s largest collection. She’s the official Queen of Scatterballs Swipe to watch her play and jump. Repost @alohaphd ・・・ If Angel @mochikit can do this so can I. PS @starkravingcat this is only part of my Scatterball collection. #imasiberian #starkravingcat #scatterballs #cattoy . . #Scatterballs bounce, wobble and scoot across the floor.

Tamale had me so worried last night and early this morning. Last night she was in distress, crying out to me, having a hard time sitting up. Looking around, disoriented, perhaps in pain, and definitely not right. Not good at all. Swipe: At 4:30 this morning she was still having problems-could be various reasons. But I doted on her, gave her water and she ate a little food with extra CBD. Sometimes fresh air helps. She spent an hour outside on her welcome mat this morning, resting, before I walked her over to this spot by the fence. By 10AM
