So even after I showed Human all this love, she stuck me in a box and put me in a car again!!!!! What is up with this? So over it. I’ve resigned myself to these periodic indignities as I don’t seem to have any say. I even forewent giving Human a piece of my mind after a bit and just curled up in my box while Human drove!
We went back to the vet again. This is getting OLD. They did something to my side and then took the bandage I had to wear off. Thank GOODNESS I didn’t have to stay overnight in that place again!! Human and I had a talk on the way back home. She promised no more visits as long as I stay healthy, which she said was my number one job. After all these visits, I’m not sure I should believe her, but she usually tells me the truth, so maybe…. She said beyond that, I’m finally allowed to practice my pouncing and jumping a bit! She also said I need to work on growing my furs back. Makes sense since I’m a bit naked on that side right now. It’s cold! No wonder Human needs all the blankets – she only has fur on her head!
I was so hungry by the time I got back from the vet, thank goodness Human remembered the wet smelly stuff!!!
And then The Best Thing happened. Human took off the onesie!!! Oh my gosh I hate the onesie. No idea how human babies manage the horror. I feel like a new cat now that I’m finally free of the stupid thing!!! I even ventured around the house a bit, explored, and practiced getting around on three legs. Yeah, I’m still loving my naps, but it’s time to start plotting how I’m going to take over this domain again.
But first, off to grow some furs….
They removed the counter balancer!
Just sitting here here on top of my Human in a onesie engining.
Moving right along…
It’s been SIX DAYS already since my surgery! I do have to say I’m enjoying so much nap time. I’m seriously living the lounging life right now and Human says that’s just fine by her!!!! The doctor said I could try going from taking pain meds every 8 to every 12 hours – thank goodness, I hate it when Human grabs my face, and the medicine tastes awful! I’ll for sure take less of it. Food still tastes good and I’m eating just fine. I’m practicing hopping around on my three legs a little and it’s going ok – I can get in my box when I need to!
I learned the other night the smooshing Human’s face is ridiculously amusing. She thinks so too.
