All that maintenance noise

Chilling in the office while I work from home. Shippo starts to get annoyed with the PCM Electric crew members as they roll in with 5 vehicles to do some electrical work in our apartment complex.

The sound of the drilling in the hallways resonates so loud that I can feel it right next to my ears. Must be worse for Shippo with that cone on his head.

Mom is in quarantine

He knows mama is in there and he wants to get in. Too bad mama is sick. Shippo is super annoying right now because he just wants to sleep in bed with Mama all day but he'll become contaminated if he goes in. Too bad Shippo, you'll just have to deal with it for the next few days!

Shippo is in a cone

So the swelling on his eye didn't get better by the weekend so he had to wear a temporary cone to prevent scratching until he gets checked out at the vet.

In the mean time, he plays with bubbles.

The vet isn't sure of what he has so they put him on some meds. He gets to sport a new cone but I still think the makeshift cone was better.

UPDATE April 14, 2019:

Swelling went down on his right eye lid so we removed the cone. He started scratching his eyes again and now HIS LEFT EYE LID IS SWOLLEN!

Getting Shippo after Turks and Caicos

We picked up Shippo today after returning from the Turks and Caicos and his right upper eye lid was swollen up. He didn't seem to be in any pain and it didn't seem to bother him at all. When we brought him home, he acted as if we never left. He is just too comfortable.

Shippo is House-broken

Shippo is completely house-broken and is trained to never pee or poop in the house, until he is in a house that has a lot of pee stained in the carpets. I'm not sure if he gets confused or decides that he needs to mark territory (he was neutered at a young age) but he will spray on the stained parts of the carpet. I will need to watch out for this next time I go visit someone who has stained carpets.
