Remember Pusit? The black kittykat we found wondering in our Pet Clinic and eventually adopted? She was scheduled to be spayed, but a one night stand with a local tom cat led to an unplanned pregnancy.

The Animal Doctor did not want to take any chances this time. Today Pusit was spayed. And so were two of her three kittens.

For the male cats, the procedure is called neutering. It is relatively quicker and less complicated than spaying. The kitties are now up on their feet ten minutes after this photo was taken. Doc Jun, our assistant vet, did not even have to stitch the incision.

Pusit's female kitten will be spayed next week. She's never been outdoors since birth to prevent unwanted pregnancy. We can't wait for the three kittens to start climbing roofs and playing with other cats in Mimosa Street.

Some donors to Scarlet's wheelchair have sponsored two cats and two female cats for spay and neuter. I guess Pusit and her kitties don't count because we adopted them. We will pick sponsored cats from one of the depressed areas here in our community.

Update on Woody

Do you remember Woody, the puppy we fostered? A couple of weeks ago, she visited our pet clinic for her booster shots, but the Animal Doctor found out that she had hookworms and must be treated first.

The Secretary, however, noticed something else. First of all, the Secretary already sensed something wrong when Woody's dad blurted our their reasons for adopting Woody- that they wanted to teach their children not to be afraid of dogs. But she forced herself to be optimistic, hoping all the best for Woody.

Now seeing Woody for the first time since her adoption, the Secretary's heart sank. Her doubts were confirmed. Woody is sad, so unlike the happy, carefree puppy we had raised her to be.

The Secretary had to think and act quickly. It was Valentines Day, which may be the only best time to defend a losing proposition with the Animal Doctor.

The Animal Doctor's Valentine gift to the Secretary

YAY! The Animal Doctor made a call to Woody's new family and within a few minutes, we got her back for good! Look how happy she is to be with us.

There are now seven of us ( 6 dogs and 1 cat) living in our Mimosa House and we know how hard it is for our Secretary to take care of us, especially that the 'conomy is not doing good and people are losing jobs. But we shall not think of these things for now...what matters is that we all are together loving and caring for each other. And we know that if pray real hard and cross our paws that we will be alright, we will be!
