Pets of PedalPCB

Took Lucretia, our former stray, to the vet today. I gave them fair warning that she's not hesitant about her boundaries, but she was pretty chill for the exam. The purrito move helped.

Thankfully the FIV/FELV/heartworm tests came back negative. According to the vet, her out-turned paws are likely a congenital defect ("Carpal Valgus") though some hyperextension was probably caused by trauma. And, as we suspected, she's totally deaf.

She was already spayed, but we got her microchipped and back home to begin to atone for the day's injustices, among which was a nail trim, so here's an older murder mitten glamour shot.

Let him come inside last night due to weather, and dude wouldn't leave my side. I've named him Loup-Garou.

I was gonna put him in the spare room overnight, but he howled the entire time, so I let him out and he just ended up sleeping in the bed with the boys and I, purring up a storm the entire time

And, Flambeau decided to immediately claim the bed I bought for Loup and pout about it all night

LOUP-GAROU c'est fantastique!

Je vais donner un nom à une pédale le Loup-Garou!
Peut-etre le Feedbacker... Fender Blender.

Got this stinker to the vet today. He's in chipped, and un-neutered. Tested negative for FIV and leukemia, but still waiting on blood work for any other issues.

His wounds (not gonna post em, they're nasty n sad) came back from bacteria under the skin, so they gave him an antibiotic injection, and I'll be applying a topical spray daily.

Go back in a month to get his balls chopped off
 
Said goodbye to our 11yo cat today. His chronic kidney deficiency snowballed out of nowhere this weekend. The urgent care vet recommended euthanasia on the spot, but she agreed to give him some fluids & meds to come home and say goodbye to his fave human. He always preferred to lounge on their bed while all manner of riffs rocked the room.

We found him and his sibling on the side of a road, apparently dumped. A friend adopted one and we kept one.

He grew up into a handsome devil, part time bully, and shameless lap engine.

We thought we'd have more years with him. Despite the vet's super-gentle setup for putting a pet to sleep, ultimately we all shared the trauma more than anyone being comforted much. But maybe out there, the riffs roll on and the purrs can sometimes still shake through the walls.

Loup is slowly becoming a brudder.

Flambeau and Onyx groom eachother regularly, and Loup has been using that to get some licks in when they're sleeping. It's funny to watch them get startled once they realize it's Loup and not their brother


And, Cosette is just becoming more of a diva
