Dervish Just Watches Me These Days
He just stares at me for hours. Dervish just wants to see what I'm going to do next. He looks worried and concerned. He is my devoted good boy.

Bats on the Path
The the "leaf" turned over and sort of hissed. A tiny sound from a tiny creature. I saw its teeth and immediately knew what it was. A BAT.
Not lively, but injured or sick. I pulled the dogs away as soon as I realized what it was.
Later, I walked back, armed with a plastic container, lid and flashlight. If it was still there, in the same spot on the sidewalk, I would capture it... without touching it, of course. Rabies?
I swapped out the lid for some mesh fabric when I got home. I duct taped it securely, and placed the container in our garage for overnight safe keeping.
In the morning, Ed made calls to Animal Control and, after MANY calls, to many places, Lake County responded. An officer came out to pick it up. The bat was still alive... barely. They would call us if it was rabid.
I don't think the dogs were bitten, their rabies shots are current. Our vet was not concerned. If the bat turns out to be rabid ... we will see about rabies booster shots. We will take all precautions.

2 Cats need a Home
.
Elana has been a devoted cat owner since she was a child, and she still loves her cats very much. Unfortunately, her allergies and hospitalizations from asthma have made it impossible for her to keep her cats. They were living with her father for the past few years, but his health is suffering, and he can no longer take care of them. No other family or friends are willing to take them. We have contacted shelters around the area, but they are all over capacity. We are out of options, and unless we can find a solution soon, we will have no choice but to euthanize them -- so we are desperate to find a home for these cats.Emma (black and white domestic short hair) is 16 years old. She is kind and loves to cuddle. She gets occasional urinary tract infections but they resolve quickly with medication.
Anna (Siamese & quite fluffy) is 14 years old. She is a funny and playful cat who sometimes thinks she is a dog. She is very sweet and nothing like the stereotypical Siamese cat.
See photos below. Both are well trained, low maintenance, friendly, and relatively healthy. Elana is willing to pay for vet bills if necessary.
Thank you so much for your help. Please let us know if we can provide any additional information.
Daniel & Elana
Also, they are both spayed, and declawed on the front.
Thank you for your help in locating a potential rescue home for Elana's cats...

Dervish
Dervish just doesn't know what to think about Whisper. He sniffs her bed when she is not in it. And he is perplexed. He acted out of sorts and confused when Whisper was gone for 3 days.
