Your kittens are so cute and I'm not surprised at the turtle's palate. We had a turtle years back that loved cat food and sat on our deck at meal-time to enjoy his portion of the canned food.

My first cousin had breast cancer several years ago, when about 48, and had a double mastectomy. (The second breast removed as a precaution, as she was at very high risk even after the first mastectomy.) So I freaked a bit re: my recent mammogram and ultrasound (my third in total, but first in about 7 or 8 years). I've not heard a peep so far from the doctor's office, so hope that's a good sign. I'll have the boys send you purrs and keep their paws crossed. :-)<br /><br />The kittens are darling, such sweet ones. In a perfect world, all cats (and dogs) would have wonderful forever homes but with you they have a pretty darned good life, I think. And you do far more to help them than most of us.<br /><br />The Father's Day food sounded so yummy. :-)Fuzzy Taleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09505853082591216696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6076673433792968099.post-26476549410770053622014-06-17T13:22:07.613-07:002014-06-17T13:22:07.613-07:00You yard provide endless entertainment, that is fo...You yard provide endless entertainment, that is for sure.

My mother AND sister both had breast cancer before they turned fifty, which puts me and my sisters at very high risk. It's something you pay attention to, Rian, and I applaud you for facing up to your concerns. Funny, I never thought about what turtles eat, but I sure didn't think it was cat food! :-)DJanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07152183871573797791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6076673433792968099.post-86840450953229090082014-06-17T13:02:46.286-07:002014-06-17T13:02:46.286-07:00I do hope your extra blood work comes up "fin...I do hope your extra blood work comes up "fine".
