Susan,

I'm really, really happy to hear that Autumn is doing so well. I know  
what you mean about being nervous, but it sounds like things are  
pretty good, post-spay. When does she get rid of the collar? I'm sure  
she's ready to get back to her fort. As for the holidays, Christmas is  
always more fun when there's a little one around trying to take down  
the tree. We need some holiday pictures of Autumn.

those Elizabethean collars. We can't take it off for two minutes  
without her attacking her sutures. String on her stomach...how could  
she resist!!? They put her on a pre-emptive course of Clavamox. I  
will admit to being a nervous wreck the weekend before and earlier  
this week - I was eating every carb in sight. She's doing great  
though. She's been pretty healthy since October. We had to buy  
plastic ornaments for the Christmas tree so she could climb up and  
knock them out.  Her current favorite thing is to play fort in my  
large cooking pot. No matter where we put it, she seems to find it  
and sits in it. So I have surrendered it to her and it's sitting in  
our living room:-)
