Senyah slipped in the tub this morning, and banged herself up pretty
badly. We went to the hospital, but she's okay.

Our apartment complex hasn't yet switched from heat to air
conditioning, despite the fact that temps are in the 80's here. This
is what sparked Senyah's fall - MS is heat-sensitive.

So, we finally see the doctor, tell him about this problem, and he
pronptly prescribes - an air conditioner. Yay! All tenants were told a
couple of months ago, to remove all window units. Now we have,
literally, just what the doctor ordered.

This also results in a cat-sized platform, extending from our window.

How long did it take for the neighborhood cats to discover this?
Minutes. First Dulcie jumps up on it, and comes inside when I open the
door. Then Squeaky Girl jumps up there, wanting to be fed.

Finally, Buster wants out. The first thing he does is jump up on the
air conditioner too.

You'd think with all the hot air pouring out of it that it wouldn't be
such a popular spot...


Hugs and Purrs,
Mark

Sorry to hear about Senyah's fall, and purrs for the bumps and bruises
to heal soon, also that the AC will help

Didn't see this post before, so am adding our belated purrs and wags to
Senyah's recovery.
