Poor Cleo hasn't had a very nice Easter holiday since she had to go off to the vet for her operation. She is speyed, tatooed and microchipped.
Poor kitten....poor me. Auntie 2paw had to take her in to the hospital and then go in and get her for me later. I am toooooooooooooooooooooooo pitifully hopeless at the people hospital AND the animal one. It is a combination of heat , smell and patheticness. Thankfully 2paw saved the staff and me from embarrassing behaviour....them from seeing it and me from doing it. She was home by 2 pm and feeling no pain....aren't drugs a wonderful thing????? She leapt and bound and cried for more food and wanted to play...I thought I had blocked off the cateau access but pain medication gave her super powers and she pushed the recycling bin aside and was outside rolling in the dirt within 10 mins. Bloody hell. So much for keeping her wound clean.
It never would have happened if I had drunk more wine….the bottles weigh more than DC cans. She was a good girl and came back inside when Auntie2paw tapped on the glass. She was a lot less happy with me removing the highly technical 2 way door trigger...a large nail....so she couldn't get out!!!!
She has a shaved patch on her leg and one in her side and 2 stitches...that thankfully she hasn't chewed out --yet. She was less cheerful on Thursday when the lovely drugs wore off…..she was all ruffled and cross and I wouldn’t lie down so she could sleep....how mean was I? So since then Cleo and I have watched 17 episodes of the first season of The West Wing together…..she likes The West Wing. Today…Saturday…she was allowed outside again because her incision has healed. It was fairly funny to have her run outside and roll in blissful ecstasy on a bit of board. She came in to see Auntie2paw when she came for Stargate viewing and lunch. She came running back inside to watch more W W with me this evening. She happily eats treats and guzzles special animal milk and for now that seems to be her diet…..that can’t last because I won’t be here to indulge her during the day next week. We had the Beautiful House Sitter to stay for a couple of days too…she sat on Cleo’s couch and pillow….but realised her mistake and had taken my chair by the next day instead. Smart girl.
I haven’t done my marking…so homework tomorrow after tea….just like a kid. I still have Easter Eggs to see me through. And Cleo is nearly better. Yay.
How could Cleo not like TWW?? She is a discerning cat!!(Is that one of the cats from Cats??The Discerning Cat??) Poor babay - her, not you!! She is very brave!! And so cute!! I still can't believe she escaped into the cateau!! Be thankful I use my Vet Powers for good and not evil.
