My baby is growing up!

I'm still having trouble having pix showing up automatically. I've got pix posted over at imgur. grabbed the link, and wanted to show you.

Luna is now 3-1/2 months old. I think he's going to grow into a big cat! He loves to ride around on my grandson's shoulder! Actually, the taller the person, the better. He loves my grandson, AND my nephew. My nephew is almost 6'7", and is currently his most favorite person in the world to "ride" (LOL). But, in worst case scenario, he'll even accept me (and I'm only 4' 9&quot . Anyway, I doubt it'll show up automagically, but here's a pic of Luna and David from the other day at my Mom's 87th birthday party. https://imgur.com/3W5QHb8

just keep bearing with me. maybe before i kick off this mortal coil i will actually get it. i am still without a/c in a heat wave so my frustration level is pretty darned short right now. hopefully all paperwork is ok and parts are ordered so the grant for us old folks can be okayed and work can start this wed. i know I and the pets would be most grateful! These days its luna's antics that keep me sane.

that I think you all are absolutely fantastic! You're Bastet's helpers on Earth, taking care of Her little angels on Earth. There are so many who are vulnerable in this day and age... the old, the very young, the sick, the disabled. But many never stop to think about the wild creatures, or those who are born of the domesticated who have no homes. As climate change progresses and gets ever more extreme, they're going to suffer ever more. It's going to be people like us who will be the front line to do what we can to help them in any way we can.

Like many of you, I'm sure, in my younger days I've gone after kids who were mistreating animals as well as taught young children how to handle and treat them. One of the worst nights of my life was taking a baseball bat after armed teenagers torturing cats in my neighborhood. And I've probably spent enough money on vet bills over my lifetime to fund the life of "my" vet clinic! (As I'm sure most of you have yours, too!).

Keep up the good work, angels! I know we do this for the love of animals... and because we can't stand to see another creature suffer. But I just want to say "Thank you"... and how happy I am to 'know' all of you.
