Adventures with Fluke (the cat)

Michelle drove to Delta on Saturday, December 18, to do the cat exchange with Gregg.  Fluke (Cassandra's cat for many, many years) was going to spend Christmas with us because Gregg was traveling out of the state for Christmas.  We were excited to have Fluke here when Cassandra and Artem arrived.  Fluke got sick - she kept throwing up all the time, was very lethargic, and wasn't eating.  We called several veterinarians but none were close to home.  On Tuesday, December 21, we picked up Cassandra and Artem from the airport in Anchorage.  We didn't take Fluke with us (and to a vet) because of the long (and cold) drive.  We all arrived home in Copper Center around 1:00 AM.  Stan and Michelle got up early the next morning to do the final clean of Stan's last house in Valdez.  We collected Fluke and dropped her off with the vet in Valdez.  Fluke ended up staying, having surgery, and stayed some more.  Stan, Cassandra, and Artem drove down on Christmas Day to pick her up.  She still wasn't eating or drinking.  She needed antibiotics and also needed to be fed with a syringe.  Hopefully Fluke will feel better soon.
