My 15 yr old kitty Terra had a tiny operation to remove a type of abcess from one of her toes. She'd been limping for a while and at the doctor's request we first tried with just antibiotics, but no go. So they sedated her and opened up the offending toe.

She's been feeling noticeably better since and has already returned to her old shenanigans.

And last night she slept in my arms - not something she usually does. It was as if she was so thankful to be rid of that pain that she wanted to 'reward' me.

Hoping to have her around for several more years as long as she enjoys life.

Cat tax:

Our lucher was in boarding last week, and I guess got used to waking up far earlier than we do normally. So now expects breakfast at 7am instead of closer to 10am. And also wants morning walks when we normally we do lunchtimes.

So basically being annoying all morning while I'm trying to sleep.

Decided 5am was a good time to jump on me. Thanks dogfriend

Got a new puppy recently. She's adorable and I am exhausted.
