Ether Got A Shower
There is a black and white stray cat in the neighborhood. We call it Popo after the police. Ether likes being outside but unfortunately is very territorial when it comes to Popo. Yesterday I heard them fighting and found them trying to kill each other in the neighbor’s driveway. I was able to break them…

Bins and Boxes and a Cat
I’ve been cleaning up more than usual today. I picked up Alex’s floor which is a bigger task than it sounds. I cleaned all three litter boxes because they really needed it since I’ve been putting it off. I took the diaper garbage to the bins and the bins to the curb. I even took…

Hiding in the Basement
We leave the basement door open at night so the cats can get in and out. Our youngest son doesn’t like it when the cats are in the basement and doesn’t like the basement door open. There is a crawl space just inside the door where the cats sometimes retreat. Our son woke up and…

Hiding in the Basement
Since Tuesday I had not seen Ether. Stephanie was sure he was hiding in the basement. I worried that he had escaped the house and found her evidence that he was still with us inconclusive. Tonight he came out of hiding long enough for Stephanie to pick him up and bring him upstairs. She held…

Violence and Murder
Yesterday my youngest son wanted a bath at an inappropriate time. I said no and it started a meltdown. We had to use emergency medication to deescalate him. He was able to get a bath in the afternoon and go with his respite worker. While he was gone Stephanie got our new cat Ether. When…

Stephanie and Ether
We got another cat today. He is Ether and he’s still kinda scared of Magic. Cosmos has been a little more friendly. Wish us all luck.
