If he has poop collected in the
fur around his legs or tail area, apply a few
drops of tearless kitten shampoo and use a flea comb to get it
out.
* to be tolerant
of handling (nail trims, cleaning ears, kids grabbing
fur, taking things
out of mouth,
drops in eyes, giving pills, bathing, brushing / grooming...)
I didn't sleep well, hustled into the office via a mailbox delivery to my ex's place
of the youngest's homework and orange clothes for Harmony Day, listened to a message on my phone from the eldest's school about her fringe being too long (WTF FFS), bolted home after work to let the
fur babies inside, bolted back to work for an office dinner (that's the gang in the main pic), realised on the way home that I need to be at a work function on Wednesday morning at 6.30 am... which is the youngest's birthday; had a major panic attack over the youngest waking up parentless on her 11th birthday; sent a frantic message to my ex asking if he could come over at 6.30 am on Wednesday; chatted briefly to an exhausted DD as he drove home from work at 9.30 pm; felt my stomach
drop slightly when he said «just don't blog about the howling dogs»; pointed
out that those sort
of suggested edits needed to be made MUCH earlier to avoid appearing in the blog...
