Monday Update

First spray treatment for the bugs appears to have gone ok. Wrestled the cats into carriers and camped out in the building lobby for a few hours. Beatrice (the semi-feral) gave me a small scratch on the face, voided her bowels, and bellowed with rage and fear, but she and Nana were both pretty quiet in the lobby (there’s a gas fireplace, and we think they liked the warmth) and both appear to have now forgiven us (Beatrice came over for scritches a couple of minutes ago) although now I think I hear them growling and hissing at each other.

Tomorrow morning have to clear out the front closet/laundry room so someone can come clean out the ducts.

I am glad Beatrice came over for scritches. How are you the humans doing with the disruption?

Feeling better, now that the end is in sight (we have to have a second spray in two weeks, to kill any bugs that hatch out between now and then).

Nana has been hissing at Beatrice, though. I’m not certain if it’s leftover stress, or if it’s because I took the opportunity, before removing Beatrice from her carrier, to brush her teeth for the first time ever. Possibly she now smells just different enough to trigger the IMPOSTER!! response.
