An update on the littles.
Sunday, August 12, 2012 at 8:39PM 
I´ve mentioned before that the kitties are sick. I`ll spare you the details but they have parasites (they were sick already when we got them, we just didn´t know back then). And as Giardia are super contagious, all four of our cats now have parasites. FUN. Again, I´ll spare you the details. Let´s just say that I´ve been washing and cleaning a lot lately and that my house smells like a hospital. Unfortunately, this is a condition which is difficult to treat and alas, we had no luck so far in doing so. On a happier note, the older cats don´t seem to be affected much and the littles are kind of doing fine. They grow, the are energetic, they are still the masters of mischief.
Also, we are so in love with them. I have never seen sweeter cats. My Emma girl basically lives on my lap, and Lutz has his daily 10 minutes where he snuggles up to me and can´t get enough love. It´s lovely to see them slowly exploring the garden. By now, they´re even getting along with the older cats - this week, they actually started playing together! Now we only need to get them healthy.
Speaking of health, I´ve been down with the flu the entire weekend. Not fair. I even missed a wedding in the village yesterday! Not fair at all. Also we´re expecting visitors this week and my house is in a shamble. I´m still too sick to even look at a broom so this should be interesting.
All of this to say: Don´t expect to hear from me very soon. Send good vibes. Catch you on the flip side.

Sending good vibes. very glad though to hear the cats are getting better. I wonder if they have become so sweet and snuggly because they were not well for so long and they got used to being lap cats. Here's good vibes being sent for your recovery and for guests with poor eyesight for dust or who like to sweep for themselves!
oh no. hope you're all getting better soon! x
Thank you Sally and Tina! Yes it may well be that they became so snuggly because of their sickness. I don´t mind though :)
dear Katrin
so sorry to hear this great deal of bad news. many people have been unwell because of this strange weather we've had... too bad it is the flu you have, i hope it won't be too severe and that you will recover asap. i'm sure your visitors can understand that.
and about the kitties, how awful that this parasite (that even as a cat owner i had never heard of) is so hard to cure. i hope time will help to improve the situation and that you will ALL be healthy.
love & good vibes x
