The topic: The injury settlement

----------------------------------------------

AAA called Friday, July 2nd.  The offer was laughable.  It wasn’t even enough to pay for followup with the chiropractor.  The agent told Brian that he would be on vacation last week and that he’d call this week to see if we were ready to settle.

The agent said that four months was what they figure it took soft tissue injuries to heal.  Nothing about my back, how it’s out of alignment because of the seatbelt.  I’ve had three sets of x-rays taken. The last set showed marked improvement, but it still wasn’t straight.  Brian’s afraid of future problems right now, so…...

I think we’re not ready to settle.  Funny, if the settlement offer would have been more reasonable, we probably would have, just to be done with it.

But I think Brian was insulted by the offer. At this point, we’ve got nothing to lose.

The topic: Meet Sebastian!

----------------------------------------------

There are a few things that I worry about due to the amputation of his front toes. One is falling into the pool. Would he be able to push himself out with his back paws?  I don’t know how much traction he has in his front paws, he’s got nothing there to hang on to the edge with.  One of the reasons we went with the texture in the pool was so cats could climb out. 

And then there was the issue of the steps Brian made in the garage way back when Red lived up there.  I can’t count the times I’ve seen the cats slip and hold on with their front paws and pull themselves up (or fall, which is incredibly frightening to watch). And Miss Elizabeth has been hanging up there the past week, I don’t like it.  I don’t really care for the cats up there, because I do worry about them falling. So, I asked Brian if he could take those steps down. And he did that yesterday. 

The more muscular physical kitties will be able to get up there from the freezer, but I doubt there will be any more racing in the rafters.

I took some pictures of him Saturday and yesterday, here they are.
