My English friends all seem to “pmsl” rather than “rofl”.
Oreo is home and ravenously hungry. Had to take the dry food away from her. She doesn’t seem to care she had a tooth pulled. They took a small tumor off her neck. She looks like she’s had a head transplant.
I’m gonna go pick up my Oreo.
She doesn’t do much of anything but sit there but I miss her anyway.
New Constellations Video
With that one chick from Raising Hope and Cee Lo. Just passing it on cause I like to post something that’s neither Metal nor cats now and again just to pretend for a minute that I am well rounded.
My kitty
is one tooth lighter, possibly diabetic and had a nodule removed which may or may not be cancerous. Other than that she’s good.
Came home and snoozed for a few with my Flashy Man. Glad I didn’t come home to no kitties.
So far
I’m much more upset than Oreo.
I’m rambling about nonsense because I’m staying up all night.
I can’t sleep cause I’m worried about Oreo. I had to take her food away and we’re all hungry now. I’ll have to take her water away in another hour and a half. Then she goes to the vet another hour and a half after that. I guess I could sleep but I wasn’t doing a very good job of it.
Oh and I feed the cats before bed. Routines have been so important in keeping Oreo calm. She’s had to be medicated for anxiety problems in her past. Thankfully we didn’t need to keep her that way, but one of the most helpful things for managing her is doing everything the same way all the time. She does when she knows what’s going on and what she can expect next.
So right now her food is gone and she knows something is different. If I go to bed and do everything I normally do except feed her I’m afraid she’ll become really anxious.
The vet gave her a long acting antibiotic shot when we were in a few weeks ago and she’s been really animated.. for her I mean… since. Sitting in different places. Not freaking out when The Flash comes near her. I guess it cleared up some infection or another and made her feel better. It gives me hope that she may do really well after having her rotten teeth taken out, but I hate that I’m putting her through any more pain, even if it will probably end pain she’s been living with a long time.
I worry about her all the time every day since Lucy died. The vet told me its because Lucy got so sick so fast that I’m expecting it with Oreo too. She’s been pooping blood for about a year now. That can’t be good, but they haven’t found a reason for it and she’s still acting quite normal for her.
I put the food in the basement where My Flashy Man can get at it. Oreo never goes down there so its the best way to feed one cat and not the other. But he’s not noticed its way past bedtime yet either and he’s snoozing in the chair like he does in the evenings.
I remember the worst of Lucy’s Dental surgery absolutely was me worrying about it. And me feeling guilty about it. Both for not having done it sooner and also for making her go through it. Thats exactly how I feel now. Shoulda done it forever ago. But I didn’t because it’s sure to be traumatic for her. Even though not doing it keeps her in pain much longer. Plus theres risks to antesthesia which increase with age, and she’s old now.
So I am worrying right now.
There’s no way for me not to worry.
I decided just to go with it.
Can’t sleep anyway so I’m just gonna stay up and be worried.
And hopefully she’ll be just fine on the other side and all my worrying will have been for nothing.
For me the big controversy of this show was why the hell wasn’t Quest Crew (and the robot!) there, so I dug a little deeper to discover that Madonna is dating one of the dancers she used instead.
It really is all about who you know, isn’t it?
I think Quest Crew got screwed over big time, but I guess I’m glad that Hok was tweeting how awesome it was that Madonna did his choreography instead of screwed they got that Madonna used some French B-Boys instead of them.
It shows class on his part. But I have no class so I’ll say that it was totally shitty of Madonna to screw them out of performing at the Superbowl. She coulda had them as well as her boyfriend and his guys. It was a big-ass stage. I’m just sayin’.
The Gold Robot got most screwed of everyone. And all of us, for not having the Gold Robot. If I was Madonna, I’d have had my boyfriend and his friends as well as Quest Crew and then when it came to that bit just before the shuffling I’da done a costume change and BECAME the Gold Robot.
That would have been cool.
Then again I can’t quite remember but I think maybe The Black Eyed Peas did some ridiculous robot thing last year that everyone hated….
“Doc, Merlin just hasn’t been the same since he got out,” said Jack, Merlin’s dad. The calm black cat with big yellow eyes stared up at Doc Truli. He seemed unfazed.
I know what you, dear reader, are thinking. You are thinking, a change in behavior is a classic sign of illness in a cat. And there are so many diseases cats can pick up outside. Plus accidents. Heck, a cat bite wound is the most common reason for a cat acting strangely after being outside. You are right, dear reader. However, a good veterinarian never misses the point.
“Uh, Jack. Isn’t Merlin a year old?” asked Doc Truli.
“Yep.” said Jack.
“And didn’t I neuter him about, oh, say, 6 months ago?”
“Yep.”
“Jack, this cat is a mature, unneutered male cat,” said Doc Truli.
Jack blinked.
”Well, heck, I’ve been feeding this cat for 4 days. Sleeping in the bed with him and everything. You mean to tell me, that’s not Merlin?”
“That’s exactly what I’m saying. This here is a totally different cat!” said Doc Truli.
Merlin returned home the next night and a neighbor adopted Merlin-too.
