I haven't been online for almost 4 days, since my mom has been out of town with our friend Jim for his surgery. I'm behind on all our work, but I'm taking a break to tell you about Jim and to say "YAY!! Churchill is home from the vet and he's going to be fine!!"It's good news all around ... because Jim's surgery went well and he didn't have a bone tumor in his foot after all! It was gout, and there was a big mass of uric acid crystals that only looked like a tumor on his x-rays and MRI. The surgeon removed the mass and some of the bone that had been eroded by the crystals, but it was a much simpler surgery than we expected, and Jim is going to be fine after a short time on crutches with a throbbing foot. But I'm still trying to figure out why he didn't bring those crystals home to me so I could make some Artsy Catsy charms with them!
He stayed with us for three days, and I've been helping him recover. Like good mancats & manbeans, Jim & I have been lounging in the recliner with the remote control while mom fusses over us and brings us treats. And we've been making mom laugh. She's been so stressed out she keeps eating chocolate cookies. When Jim wanted one today, she had eaten them all ... so we asked her if she had started a new national initiative: "No Chocolate Left Behind!"
Okay, now I have to go check out everything I've missed on the Cat Blogosphere the last few days. I hope you all have good news, too!

How wonderful that Jim is going to be okay. Bet his foot is still very, very sore.
Imagine, the xrays and MRI not picking up what it really was. So thankful it wasn't a tumor.
So with Churchill and Jim, it's been a great day. See what thousands of kitty purrs can do!!!
It's hard to be away from the kitty bloggers, I know. I'm glad fings are good at yur house though.

Now did you get to eat some temptations too?
Hi, this is your good friend Trixie here. Congrats on the good news there and mom was VERY interested in the cookies.
OK, I haven't been around a lot either. Mom went back to work full time four weeks ago and got something called a blasted tooth (root canal then an abscess) and is flat out. She doens't look flat out, she is sitting up in a chair.
Anyhow - we have come on here to look for one of your pics... Mom has some new frames and they cry out for good looking cats - so I siad she had to choose MY friends first.
Oh, and it still makes mom's day every time she looks at her cell phone charm.
That's great news about Jim's toe.We are furry happy that Churchill is home too. Looks like it's going to be a good weekend.
Hooray for Jim and Churchill, both!

Rocky that is such good news about Jim. Glad it was something simple that could be fixed. But he may need to take medicine or eat different now.
Catch up on your work but don't work too hard.
Yeah for the Good News on Churchill and Jim!!! Purrs are very powerful.
Mom has a firm No Chocolate Left Behind Policy as well! ;-)
Yay for Jim and Churchill! It's good to see that everyone is improving..and my mom loves your new national initiative, "No Chocolate Left Behind," and promises to do all in her power to help your mom achieve that worthy goal! :)
She's so weird!
