I haven't yet made enough to cover the vet bills for our injured kitty, so the sale will continue through Monday.
50% off all Sultry Collection styles.
30% off Calla Store Cards.
50% off shapes and skins.
Only at the main Calla location!
For those of you who have asked, he's doing okay. I'm still having to hand feed him and he's still oozing infection from the drainage site. He does seem to be in less pain now though, so hopefully the antibiotic is working and we won't have to do further surgery. I really appreciate the sweet words and all the good wishes! Big hugs to all of you.

Catching up, and upcoming sale!
If you recall, about a year ago we adopted a kitty for my son.
I had to take him to the vet two days ago, for what I thought was a broken leg. He wouldn't walk on his front left leg at all and after 3 days of it not getting any better, I knew he needed to go in even though we couldn't afford it.
It turns out that he has a foreign body lodged in his leg. What he has is a horrible abscess. The vet said it was really bad, and showed me a syringe of the gunk he took out of him. He said there was so much infection that he had to cut open his leg in two places and put in a drain tube. He told me "It bled really bad. Have you ever heard the expression 'bleeding like a stuck hog'?" I have, of course, so I nodded. He said "Well that's what he did."
By the time we were ready to leave the vet's office, the poor kitty had soaked through the paper towels they'd put under his leg. They were so bloody that I had to ask one of the girls at the desk for more towels for the trip home. Warning: Not for the squeamish! It looks like this now.
I've been up with him every few hours through the night. He can't walk very well still because of the pain I'm sure, and the cone he has to wear is messing with his depth perception or something. When he does try to walk, he walks backwards to wherever he's trying to go. He needs help to eat and drink. I've literally been hand feeding him. He's sleeping on the couch most of the day, sucking on his blankie. (He's a bit strange but it's terribly endearing that he has a lovey.) Sorry for the crappy pic, our camera has disappeared and this was taken with the cell phone. Here he is sucking on his blanket:

He's on antibiotics which they hope will clear it up. But if it doesn't, we're going to have to have semi-exploratory surgery to get the object out of his leg.
This has cost us several hundred dollars which we didn't have. I've had to write a post-dated check. Which is why there is going to be a sale this weekend!
My husband had a trip to the ER last week for heart palpitations, which has resulted in another bill we weren't expecting and lots of trips to a cardiologist. My computer also crashed and I've had to do a complete reformat, which is always a pain in the rear.
So, to help pay off the vet and ER/doctor bills, I'm going to be having a sale.
All Sultry styles will be 50% off this weekend. Also, store cards are going to be on sale 25% off. Skins and shapes are still 50% off. As soon as things are set in the store, I'll post again to let y'all know.

Three New and a 40% Sale!
There is a 40% sale going on at Calla this weekend! Simply wear a Calla Store Card while you shop. Every time you purchase hair with L$, you'll get a 40% return on your Store Card!
This would be a perfect time to get some of the styles you've been thinking about, especially now that the Poster Contest is on!
The three new this week are in the Sultry Collection. Click on the pictures for a larger view.
Oleander:

Red Primrose:

White Lilac:

You can pick them up at Calla!
On a personal note, I'd like to thank all of you who have sent such wonderful notes and well-wishes over the last few months. The surgeries I've been having were awful as far as recovery time, and I really appreciate all the good thoughts and prayers that have been sent my way. I have one more scheduled on June 25th, and potentially one more after that if the spinal cord stimulator implant trial on the 25th works.
For those of you who don't know, I have 4 tears in 3 discs in my lower back. This happened in April of last year, and it's been an ongoing struggle since then. Some days are okay, while others are excruciatingly painful. None are good. I'm just plugging along as best I can, one day at a time. But your thoughts and prayers mean so much to me and I greatly appreciate all the support.
Best wishes to all of you for a beautiful weekend!
