Happy Four Month Birthday to the Bright Stars!

Claire and Capella

Claire and Capella

I am so pleased with Capella. Her temperament is lovely, and it was wonderful that she got to spend an entire week meeting new people and new dogs at the Specialty. I continue to be intentional about her socialization. I want her in new places and/or meeting new people at least 3 - 4 days each week.

A new-to-Capella person and dog came to her this week — my daughter is visiting from Utah with her rescue Newfie.

Our veterinarian, an excellent surgeon, did surgery on Nicole’s cat yesterday. It was a family affair when we picked up the cat — Capella got to meet people and get weighed (39 pounds — perfect) and Dr. Card also took a look at Claire to assess her recovery. I am pleased to share that Claire is finally cleared for rehab work to begin — yippee! More on the cool plans for that soon.

A PSA: My sister, fully vaccinated and very cautious, has Covid. A mild case but still Covid. She gave permission to share this news because it is such a great reminder that vaccinated people CAN get Covid and worse — they can unknowingly infect others.

The unvaccinated include several categories of people — some who choose to assume risk of Covid and some who have no choice at all because of age or immune status. I care about people in those groups and the health care workers who are exhausted by all of this. Therefore, I plan to keep wearing a mask in public and especially indoors, and THIS lovely article resonates with my reasons.

Please be safe and well — you matter.
