The Power of Love

After a weekend of trending on Twitter and causing people all over the world untold anxiety, guess who woke up and decided he was hungry?

Baby Ralph, enjoying breakfast with his best friend, Big Guy

It was a wild weekend, to be sure. Poor little Baby Ralph was fighting off an upper respiratory infection (URI). Those are always dramatic in cats, and this poor baby was already run down from a bad case of ringworm and an equally bad case of round worms. But, thanks to devoted nursing from Dad and his kitty friends, good thoughts, prayers and wishes from all over the world, and some fresh air and sunshine, Baby Ralph is improving. He’s not 100% just yet, so please keep him in your thoughts.

Although, he did come right back for second breakfast, so there’s every reason to hope that he’s on the mend, though he will be very closely monitored. Thank you to everyone who was pulling for the little guy! Baby Ralph, King of Hearts, healed by medicine and the power of love.

    I’m super relieved! He still has a long row to hoe, but right now, there’s so much to be grateful for.

    This little guy is such a fighter. Sure hope he feels even a fraction of the love that the Minterland tribe has for him and his whole family. Get well Baby Ralph!! ASAP!
