Satellite Kitty

Poor Bonny had her second veterinarian visit this week. She hates me now for taking her to that dreadful place and some major sucking up is in order. She'll have tuna for lunch today. What happened is that last month she was spayed. All went well with the operation but about a week ago the incision site became inflamed due to her constant licking. The vet's solution was this fashionable Elizabethan collar and a topical antibiotic. Bonny is miserable with the collar and she has a hard time walking while wearing it. The good news is that we're getting excellent television reception while she's in the living room.

Just in case anybody thinks the collar is cruel and unwarranted I'm putting a small picture of her tummy on here. I really wouldn't have done this had it not been absolutely necessary.





I haven't had time to finish my Keohinani cable sock, but here is a picture of it so far. I love Mama-E's colors. The pattern is just one that I've made up. I based the measurements for stitch casting on and heel turning on the last pair of socks I made, but I replaced the lace pattern with some simple cables. The pattern is easy and I'll copy it all down and stick it in my notebook for future use.



Here is a close up showing Mama-E's fabulous colorway.
