Halloween Fun and Animal Updates!





















Hannah goes Trick or Treating on Grandma's street!

















Class party!





The Class!
Now that we have showed the fun stuff. Mariah does have malignant melanoma. The vet removed one toe and the tumor. She got all of it and the bone is not affected yet. Her lymph nodes are still good but this kind of cancer is supposed to be a fast spreading one.
Dylan is loosing weight and starting to whine a lot. We are planning to start subq fluids with him again today. It should help him. He has had a few set backs along the way and this one is a bit different and probably a little worse but we have some other things we can do to prolong his life still but......
Barbie (Katelyn's semi feral cat) has a hot spot on her neck and of course treating her had been difficult!
I feel a little like I have been run over by a truck....a few of them actually! My dad's health is getting worse....he is sure that he is dying...and I guess, really, he is, and though I guess nobody is ever "ready" to loose their parents I just don't think it should be his time to go yet! Madison is only 6....she is too young to lose her Grandpa! I am losing two of my dogs and I REALLY need a job or they may repo my dogs before they die! UGH! Poor me! LOL. I know, I have a LOT to be thankful for and I am but....I guess I just want to whine!

Friday's random photos

The purse..........
My niece Brattany!
My Dad and his youngest kids!
His hot new car! LOL. It looks a lot better now but still has a long way to go.
My Grandma last Christmas.
So tomorrow is the girls' birthday party at my parents. They wanted to have a bon fire, volley ball and bocce ball. And since we do not have a yard we opted to have the party there.


I found this REALLY cool dog purse...what other kind! LOL. You can buy it at the awesome site where you can click to give money to places for free. Here is the link to the site and I will attach a photo too. http://shop.theanimalrescuesite.com/store/item.do?siteId=310&itemId=34902&origin=EPA_101708_P_34902_04

New foster girl~Girlie!
Kayla tries her laptop out.
Katelyn looks to see what Kayla is doing on HER laptop. LOL
Ethan and his $300 half a tail! He is still a handsome man!
Kayla and Katelyn are officially teenagers! Their party is on the 18th but of course they had to get some of their gifts already! We went to Sunny Lake Park yesterday to have a little picnic, take a bike ride and give them there laptops(birthday gift from us).


Darcy was adopted today. Bobby Jack and Patchy Queen went to a different foster home as they were not doing so well here. We did take in a new dog today though (I know, I know...I was supposed to be taking a break but....we had a zillion apps for another Rottie mix we had so since she is a Rottie/Dobie mix and I got another call yesterday from another person looking for a Rottie I decided to take her). Her name is Girlie (she came with her name) and she is a DOLL! We adopted out two of our rats on Saturday too. YAY!
