Blueberry Fields: Broken Jaw?

Well, I was hoping to update a cute, happy post with the boys being adorable. But no. My dog broke my cats jaw.

A scuffle over (most likely) food resulted in Nymeria with a lopsided mouth. (Cinder is on my naughty list- she's usually so good with the cats). I didn't notice until just over two hours after that that her mouth was not closing properly. She had hidden behind the couch all evening. Matt was out with friends and the boys were asleep. I went into a little panic. I'd never had to use the emergency vet care before.

My mom was able to come over and sit with the boys while I took Nym to the vet. They took X-rays and said it's most likely broken but could be a "luxation" (don't know exactly what that means). Either way, it will most likely require surgery. She goes in Monday for more X-rays and possible surgery. As for the weekend, she just has to be careful, keep her mostly confined and on a wet food diet. They muzzle dogs when they break a jaw, but it doesn't quite work for a cat.

These non-blurry pictures took forever to get. You can kind of see her lip hanging out in the first one. She seems okay and it's been hard keeping her calm. She just tried playing and biting my hand!

The boys seem to be taking turns getting sick. This week was Harrison. He didn't slow down for a second, but his nose was really gross.

Sammy has started having mini tantrums. He is very grumpy when he does not get his way. You try and take something away from him and he'll try to bite you. And with a third tooth coming in, it's serious business.

He also tried tackling his big brother the other day. Harrison was confused, but Sam just wanted to climb all over him.

We're officially getting our house ready to sell. Today my dad helped move things to a storage unit and I removed all the wallpaper in the bathroom. Removing wallpaper could be used as a form of torture. My hands hurt now.

I'm both excited and nervous for the move. I want some specific things in our next home that might be harder to find. I am also sad about leaving this house. It's been a great home, but we're outgrowing it and it feels so cramped. We also just have too much stuff...
