Tigger has had a urinary tract problem. It started last year around this time and she was really bad then - we thought for a while we might lose her, but she recovered and we knew this time to spot the early symptoms and to get her to the vet's for a couple of injections.
Last night we took her for the second one and they were running a bit late with a place full of dogs. Tigger was safe enough (or should that be, the dogs were safe enough?) but she straight away started a continuous growling and yeowling and the dogs started to get nervous...
Which is ok, except that I am slightly allergic to dogs. We were there over half an hour and when I came out my eyes were sore.
By the time I had driven home my eyes looked like this!
I had to spend the night flat on my back with two cotton pads soaked in cold water over my eyes. I put my headphones on and just listened to music. Fran kicked me a couple of times claiming I was snoring but seriously – how could I have been when I was listening to music?!?
Anyway this morning the swelling has gone down a lot but I think I might find some things to do that don't require a lot of staring at the computer screen!
And Tig is so pleased to be home she's cuddling her brother, Jess, which he is suffering without complaint...
Boy, I really miss the two cats we had until... Anyway the one we have now is so lonely sometimes he insists on my playing the part of "friend". A grown man chasing around the house is so embarrassing, to the wife, I find it fun.
ReplyDeleteLove the pic of the cuddling kitties! Sorry you had to suffer so - would it help if you pop a Claritin if you have to go to the vet's again?
