Today the teachers had professional development and work day, paraprofessionals and aides had the day off.
I started by taking Bruno for his yearly physical. He has gained a lot of weight. He is 21 lbs. The vet suggests that instead of commercial treats that I dehydrate chicken or beef and cut it into little bits for treats. I will know what is in it and it will be pure protein for the kitties.
He got three shots and a flea and tick treatment.
Also today I met Jane for lunch and visited two thrift shops. Then I was tired.
For supper Bob and I made sub style sandwiches on some hoagie rolls I had in the freezer. He was hungry for something "solid" and these were very filling with assorted meats, pickles, cheeses, and veggies.
Bob is "sleeping it off" and I am tires as well.

I hope you enjoyed the day, even if you were busy for most of it.

@GardenGerty True, that is a good reason for Bob to lose weight.

Are they very expensive? What brand are they and where do you get them?

@GardenGerty I’ve gotten several different brands from Amazon. The prices of the ones I’ve ordered have ranged from $7.99 to $14.99.

It was tiring. I enjoyed it, though.

He is, and he is soft. Feels like a squishmallow toy. I will have to get him to exercise and play more.

At some point I will be permanently "off" and then will have time for all the extras.

It is very likely I will, but will maybe try a small amount at first so if they do not like it I will not be out a lot of money.
