Little rescue Sora still needs drops twice a day, and she knows every time what’s coming, no matter how we try to distract her or sneak it into another routine.
We hate chasing her down, and she’s hissed a few times. But so far she hasn’t scratched or bitten, and once bagged, she cuddles and hides her head.
At least she doesn’t hold a grudge, and minutes later is happy chasing a feather on a string, her fave activity .

Damn I love this little kitty, and looking forward to earning her trust in all situations. . .
I’ll be doing a presentation on the history and development of Burnaby watersheds, and talking about what volunteer streamkeepers do, at the Metrotown Public Library branch in #Burnaby, BC, on Sept. 19 at 7:00pm.
Came up for a breather from my basement office to find new rescue Sora-chan stretched out near her big sister Midori, sharing the sunlight. So cute!
Sora-chan continues to make progress. This is the first time I found her flaked out in the living room, a big move from her usual sleeping place under the bed : – ).
Every summer the City of Burnaby Parks Department has summer camps for kids at Ron McLean Park in SE Burnaby. For the second year, Byrne Creek Streamkeepers were asked to take the kids on a tour of the creek.
This year I was the leader, and it was a blast. We walked from the park down to the creek, and back, talking about the local fish, wildlife, plants, etc.
Oh my gosh, so cool! We ran across Maiden on our visit to Vancouver’s north shore today.
All woman-crewed around-the-world sailing race competitor in 1990. I had not been aware of this!
They faced so many doubters and obstacles, and prevailed. And now she continues as a beacon for educating disadvantaged girls around the world.
Inspiring.
Wonderful to see a flotilla of First Nations canoes welcoming, honoring, and visiting. I hope I’m not intruding when I say FNs in general, and FN women in particular, deserve such support and recognition.
