(Nearly) Wordless Wednesday: 2 One-Eyed Hairless Wonder Cats


After Saturday's Ten Things of Thankful post, several people commented that I needed to post photos of the two one-eyed, hairless cats.  Here they are:

  1. How did the cats lose their eyes? Was it a birth defect or an injury. I have a one eyed chicken and I think it was born without the other eye since it has so many other deformities.

    1. Phillip's breeder said he lost his in a fight. We suspect Leela was born with only one eye, but as she was a shelter cat that came in as a stray, we have no way of knowing for sure.

  2. They are beautiful and I bet they don't even know they are handicapped.

  3. It takes a very special person to adopt a cat like that. To have two in your life is great. And creepy.

    1. I told my husband we somehow raised very compassionate children, who also have very compassionate friends. Personally, I (not-so) secretly think of the cats as zombie cats. However, Leela has a very sweet personality. I can't make a good judgment call of Phillip; he's in a new environment and is still a kitten.

Ten Things of Thankful: Autumn Edition

It's autumn time, one of my favorite times of year.  I just couldn't leave this weekend as a one-post weekend.  

Ten Things of Thankful: Last Two Weeks

  Grand Prismatic Spring in Yellowstone National Park, as viewed from an overlook I apologize for not commenting on your blog posts this past week; John and I took a vacation to Yellowstone National Park, leaving behind our computers and, to a large extent, cell phone service. We escaped the outside world and just spent time in nature. Though we have friends near Yellowstone (who we love to visit) we made this trip just about us, so please forgive us if we were nearby and didn't stop by. The crowds were minimal (though we did mask up whenever we passed someone on the trails) and we spent our days hiking, taking photos, and watching geysers erupt. Today, we are back home and back to work, and, in the case of my computer, back to old shenanigans like not letting me import my photos. (I was able to add the above photo by using blogger on my phone, but that isn't my preferred method.) I want to write about Yellowstone and have photos I want to share, but will leave that for another...

Monday Mentions: Equate Crutches

Have you ever needed crutches? I hadn't, until a week ago.  I'm pretty sure I strained a muscle while running a half-marathon.  (That sounds kind of cool, doesn't it? I'm not actually that cool; the last time I strained a muscle it was from carrying too many shopping bags at once.) In any case, I found myself in need of some crutches. I sent my husband to the store to get some. Photo: A pair of crutches leans against a wall  Not that crutches are all that complex, but because I hadn't used any before, I wondered if I could figure out how to adjust them to fit me properly. I shouldn't have worried. John came home from Walmart with their generic store brand of crutches, complete with instructions. First, I needed to take out a long bolt that went through the hand grip. Then I needed to find my height range, push down two metal pieces, and slide the crutches until the little metal pieces came up in the hole near my height range. (Having two people for this...
