The one in the middle hissed at her

So when he asked me to send some photos of the roof, I took it as a good opportunity to name and shame my kitty. (The photo is a screenshot of my text thread with the plumber and the photo caption says in Dutch "This is the window, and this is the cat you just heard yelling like he was dying bc he was hungry"). At least Mr Plumber is properly prepared for the Orange Menace when he comes to fix the leak later this week...

What’s in her head? 1. Snot ✅ 2. Thoughts ❌ 3. Song (maybe)

Her name is Nian-nian

A few weeks ago I felt some lumps on Cider’s sides that seemed to be on his ribcage. I procrastinated making a vet appointment. Today I drove him 45 minutes to the vet, to be told they were his floating ribs and there was nothing to worry about.

My wife has had cats for over 25 years and I worked at an animal shelter in the 90’s. I have never even heard of floating ribs. We had a good laugh and are very thankful Cider will be ok.

“Floating ribs in cats are the last one or two pairs of ribs that don't attach to the sternum. They can sometimes stick out and look like bumps or feel like lumps.”

He’s still learning, be nice to him
