At 6:15 this morning Alexis & I headed to St. Louis to the St. Louis Pet Clinic to drop the boys off at the vet & we picked them around 3pm. They have now been neutered. Both are extremely groggy at this point so the vet said to keep them in their crate until 8pm tonight. They are in the big one so they can be together.

It was truly cute when I picked them up, Gabriel instantly meowed at me and did everything he could to get to me. Romeo just looked up at me like, "Momma, I'm so groggy; hold me". When I got them home, and put their crate in my room with the door closed (so they could get some much needed rest) they both were climbing over each other trying to get to my hand so I could pet them. I just kept saying, "Momma's boys, I love you" over & over again. When they had finally had enough they both laid down again.

So now the worst part is over and I have them back here which makes me happy. I can't believe how attached I've gotten already as I missed them being here for the short time they were gone.

For their first Mom, Lisa, just thought I'd give you an update on their weight, etc. Romeo is weighing in at 11.9lbs and Gabriel is 10 1/2lbs. The vet said they are two of the most incredible looking cats he has ever seen so I had to tell them that their mom was a stray, etc. and he was sincerely impressed :) He also mentioned he hasn't seen such a toned & healthy cat as Romeo and that Gabriel was so soft he couldn't resist petting him LOL

Too cute!
