cat care 19 July 2011
Miss Alice has been poorly and lost a lot of weight recently, so she had the expensive visit to the vet yesterday (the sort of visit I don’t allow myself to the doctor unless my leg is hanging off and I also have raging bubonic plague). Her vitals are good but she now has eye and ear drops, an antibiotic and some sort of serum that needs to be administered 2 and 3 times a day on a full stomach (she still won’t eat so that’s a top trial). I need a suit of armour to deal with the flaying action of her 4 very sharply tuned up claws. Just now I got the eyes drops in but in that same successful process knocked a steak knife off the table which duly stabbed my foot and I am bleeding copiously …
In the meantime Brenda is an eating, leaping, fun fun FUN machine who has dealt with a naughty foil bottle top through the medium of killing it and she is well pleased with her lot – even if she’d prefer a better running buffet and has many vocal complaints about how poor her catty lot is…
At least they are ‘helping’ with the teen novel by lying on the laptop as I write…
