Good morning my DU family,

Poor Cuddles has an open wound on his right leg that we think is from a spider bite. We'll be going to the Vet this afternoon and hopefully it won't be as ugly as it looks.

For those of us who have our indoor outdoor warriors, our worries for them always include the mischief that they'll happen upon while they're on the proverbial hunt.

It's one of the reasons I love our special time every morning when he comes in, I get a chance to do a once over while loving him up and down. We got a appointment for 415pm today and let's hope it's easily treated.

Please hold your babies close and dear, not just because you love them, but to keep abreast of their physical states too.

Please give us a day filled with opportunities to love our fur babies devotedly, and let their health be as important as ours in our actions.

Have a beautiful day DU, we'll keep you posted on poor Cuddles adventures as the day goes on.
Love, John

Poor kitty. I hope he's not in pain. Martini, Holly and I are hoping for the best possible outcome for dear Cuddles.

The three of us look forward to a good report from the vet later today. Fingers and paws crossed! 🤞
