I didn't sleep as well as I liked, I'm not accustomed to the sound of the water bowl. See, like the litter boxes, I aim to have a water bowl in every room. I put the water fountain in my bedroom.
But I did sleep, and happily "caught" Torbie taking a nice long drink, on a couple of occasions. She needs water too. I would feel better if Biscuit were as thrilled with it, but I will "take" the win of one cat using it with relish.
Torbie slept with me when she wasn't doing cat business or drinking water. I woke up around 7. Biscuit joined me in the bed for a while, for snuggles and petting. He is really acting 100% healthy now. That is so reassuring. I was very worried about him.
I got up and brushed my teeth, then fed everyone. First Biscuit. When he finished his special food he went and drank out of the water bowl for a while. Later on I dosed him and he went and peed vigorously. I could hear him peeing from several feet away. Biscuit is doing very well.
Then I fed Torbie and Baby Girl, they got the salmon food. They each ate for a while and wandered off. Then I put up the food, because I was slow doing it yesterday and Biscuit got ONE piece of kibble. I felt terrible about that but, based on today's behavior, he is doing fine.
I will just have to stand over the bowl and be the food police. I am OK with that if it means everyone stays healthy. I'll just get up 15 minutes earlier.
Ron woke up. We talked for a while and had a cuddle, he was very affectionate, even Biscuit and Torbie joined us.
Then I got up to dose Biscuit and Ron went back to his talking book. He really loves his talking books.
I need to clean all the boxes. If there is even the remotest chance Biscuit got sick because he didn't like his preferred box, I will be much better about cleaning them (I am surprised no one yelled at me over this vs. water in the dry food). Normally I clean it every couple days, but now it's down to every day.
It is easier that way, and I do it before my shower so I can clean up. There is a lot of dust from this brand, but the cats like and use it so not inclined to change. Easy just to bathe, after.
I don't have to wash my hair today, but that means I will tomorrow, at 2 AM. Not crazy about that, but we need to get our soda delivery. There are rumors Ron put a case of Diet Dr Pepper in the order, for me. Bottles, which I prefer. Why spend the money with the other vendor when we can buy it wholesale?
We will be taking a cab to run errands after we get the delivery and stock (not in that order). Later on, a trip to Walmart (a very short one) and even a trip to the Waffle House, if Ron holds up to it. He may run out of energy but we will see - he scheduled a nap in there.
I hate the fact I need a nap most days, but Ron has a similar energy level.
About the only other thing I need to try on my new work shoes and start breaking them in.
