These days, Sixpence keeps himself entertained by watching the squirrels gather up acorns and chestnuts for the winter and by watching the migrating birds landing on the lawn and in the trees.  “6P” likes the holidays because he gets more snacks and a lot of extra fussing.  His foster mom has to be vigilant about what he eats in order to keep him healthy during treat-filled holiday time.  She also has to be careful to make sure that he doesn’t get overexcited, which might result in a seizure. “6P” twisted his front foot and gave his mom a big scare – he’s so fragile that she really worries if any little thing seems wrong with him, but he’s ok now.  Sixpence is such a good boy – he leads a simple life, but he doesn’t know it – he’s always ready for a kiss on the nose and a pat and a scratch behind the ears.  We look forward to a very happy and healthy New Year for Sixpence and all of our beloved special-needs sponsor program pets!

The change to cooler, dryer weather has made Sixpence itchy, so he is on medication for that, but otherwise doing well.  Two exciting things for him to watch recently, a clogged drain that led to a lot of pipe work and the installation of a new paper towel rack!  Dull stuff for us, but really interesting for 6p, and not scary for him because all of the people involved were family – so no seizures.  There are the squirrels to watch as they get ready for winter, some pigeons to scare away (pigeons are new to him), and the feral kitten his family found in the back yard…probably the first kitten he has ever seen!
