Ouch

You may have noticed in the previous post that the kittens were in a cardboard box. That's because I was bringing them to show Steve who was stuck on the couch with a broken knee.

On May 15, Steve, Drew, Brian, Katie, Matt, and I all went to stick and puck. About 45 minutes in Steve stepped on a puck and went knee first into the boards. X-rays the next day confirmed that the knee cap was broken, and he needed surgery to drain the fluid and wire it up. He went for surgery the night of the 16th and was home by 10pm. Needless to say, he lived on the couch for a while. Thank you to his brothers Drew and Brian for looking after him and the kittens for the first few weeks after.

PitaPata Cat tickers
Steve and I have volunteered at the SPCA since June 2010. We try to go every weekend to walk dogs. I am allergic to cats, but Steve really wanted one. We agreed that we would foster kittens for the SPCA to help the kittens, and to test how my allergies would be. We agreed that we wouldn't keep any kittens from the first litter because wanted to do it more than once. Along came Calliope and her kittens. They captured our hearts and there was no way we could give them all back.
