Can I just get drunk, pass out, and not
open my eyes again until the month is over?
So my grandma went into the hospital end of last month, and has been very ill since. She passed away last Tuesday. Yesterday, a dog in very bad shape came into the shelter, and promptly went to the vet clinic and spent the night. He died today, a couple hours after I euthanized my own dog, Toad. 3 out of 4 kittens that we've had for a very long time tested positive again for FIV and had to be euthanized. Another dear friend and co-worker had her grandma hospitalized today, as well as had to euthanize her own dog, Noel.
Tiny bright spots for the day: law enforcement plans to follow up on the neglected-to-death dog, and our little pregnant rat terrier cross gave birth to 3 live puppies, 2 of which are expected to remain alive. (Puppy number two is half the size of the others, and somewhat resembles a hydrocephalic ferret. Newborns, regardless of species, aren't cute at first, and this one is a particularly weird example. And mom got a little carried away while cleaning her, and chewed a couple toes off.)
So who's joining me for whiskey shots tonight??

Edit: The misshapen puppy died as expected. Another puppy also died, seemingly of an internal congenital defect. The remaining puppy survived and is healthy, happy, and totally spoiled in the home of our newest employee.
