Christmas Tree and cats update

This year we decided to go for a real tree! So, we went to Home Depot and bought a Doug Fir Tree. It was about 28 dls, not bad. Smells great, and it is a nice size for our space. The day was very cold, but it did not take too long and Arianna loves it. Mike and Arianna did the decorations this year since I am still getting used to working second shift (most of the time- it may change anyway) but I was happily surprised with a tree with lights and ornaments!
Arianna was sleeping in the beginning, but woke up in time to see the trees and she was really happy. Our neighbor has a Christmas tree on their porch and she wanted to touch it all the time. Now, we have ours. We still need to put our train like we do every year, hopefully this coming weekend...


In other good news, Jack has been in our first floor with the other cats! As you can expect they have once or twice a day some kind of chase, but they have neutral territories and they stop. Plus I have my handy water bottle and they hate to get wet (unlike Ezri!). So, no injuries so far and we are happy with the progress. It took 6 months, but the outcome looks very positive :) We had to take Jack to vet ER last weekend due to a bad rash on his back with some spots with no fur and a nasty scratch/bloody injury by the ear that apparently was self-induced. After some medicine (Predisone I think) in case it was an allergy his wound is healing nicely. So, we are happy.
