I took these photos at the vet’s yesterday while picking up a sick cat.
I have been going through a kitty-cat nightmare the last couple of months. I have six cats (and that’s a story for another blog). I never intended to have 6 cats but it ended up that way. Four of them are brothers from the same litter. And they’re all getting sick. One cat (Tuxedo . . . the Sophisticated Cat) has kidney cancer. Now another of his brothers may have cancer. . . we should know for sure today. It is probably a genetic thing but its all happening at once.
My oldest kitty, Pia, has thyroid problems and stopped eating for a while. She was only 6 pounds to begin with and went down to 4.5. She’s on meds now and is eating everything in sight so I think she’ll be okay.
Anyway, here are my flowers from the vet’s office taken with my iPhone.

Great shots from the iphone… bad news about the cats.. so now should I like the post or not… no I think I’ll like it as Maralee’s photos are tops as usual…
Thanks, Rob. I appreciate it. As long as the cats aren’t in any pain, we’ll take it one day at a time.
Sorry to hear about your cats! I was torn about liking the post as well.
Thanks. We’re just taking one day at a time and doling out medicine every morning and evening. Ever try to give a pill to a cat??
Beautiful flower photos. I’m so sorry about your cats being sick. I didn’t realize that Tux had cancer. They are family.
Thanks, Judy. He first got sick in November with a blocked urinary tract. We thought that was it but when we took him in a month later for a checkup, the doctor noticed his kidneys were enlarged. The did a biopsy and found it was cancer. We’ll keep him comfortable with steroids as long as possible, but when the cancer takes over, we’ll have to put him down.
That is very sad. I have become very attached to Princess our indoor cat and to several of her relative outdoor cats. It is painful to lose one. Thinking of you.
Thanks, Judy.
So sorry to hear about your cats. I hope you get good news. Gorgeous shots.
Thanks, Edith. A radiologist is looking at the x-rays to see if its lung cancer in the cat so we’ll wait and see.
Sorry about your cats, I hope that they make it!
Thanks. One of the cats won’t make it . . . the cancer has spread. We have him on steroids and keeping him comfortable but it’s just a matter of time.
Lovely…
Thanks so much, David. And thank you for sharing my photo in your blog.
Sorry, to hear about your kittens …. Truly upsetting news. You where able to find some wonderful beauty .. in a sad situation,.
Amazing shots of a phone – that top photo is so real – those pistils.
Thanks, Viveka. It’s always nice to have the phone camera with me for times when I don’t have my big camera.
Your smart phone take stunning photos. We don’t need cameras anymore – not the small compact.
Wonderful photos with all this colours!
Thanks, Bente.
Such pretty flowers, but I’m so sorry about everything you and your kitties are going through. So very, very sorry.
Thanks, Carissa. I feel like I’m walking through a kitty nightmare that won’t end. It’s been one after another. Because it’s affecting the kittens from the same litter (they’re really not kittens anymore – they’ll be 8 in May), they’re thinking it’s something genetic. But for it to happen to all of them at one time is a nightmare.
How terrible that they’re all sick. Hope all will be well. The flowers are lovely 🙂
