Tony’s appetite has definitely decreased since Tuesday; it’s possible he is the other w diarrhea; pending observation. His energy level is fine, he’s eating dry kibble but not wet food.

Mayor Jojo has been in rough shape. She vomited on Tuesday afternoon and refused dinner. She also refused breakfast and I found blood vomited in a couple of places. She also has diarrhea. X-rays are fine bloodwork shows elevated WBC.

Reminder:

Your well-being is a priority, and you are committed to nurturing it.

You believe in the power of empathy and compassion to create a better world.

You deserve the same kindness you give to others, and you extend that kindness to yourself.

I'm proud of you

More of Tony’s antics - multiple shots of him, climbing up the photographers Brown fabric covered leg to grab the drawstring and try to pull it out to the floor with his body weight.

The orchids still have not bloomed, but the blossoms are getting bigger and the big orchid has even more flower spikes coming up.
