Our cat Hank (technically he's mine but likes Wes better) had to go in to the vet last week to get neutered and we also had him declawed (front paws only) while he was there. I picked him up a couple days later and he was doing great. We left with strict instructions to keep him from jumping, batting at things with his paws, and just keep him "still" in general.....yeah right!
After a few days, the poor kitty started looking like he was bleeding on one of his paws. So I immediately called the vet and they had me bring him back up to have it checked out. Turns out the stinker had pulled out his suture....poor little guy. They had to sedate him again to clean it out and suture it back up and we got to pick him up this morning.
When they came around the corner with him THIS is what we saw....
How pitiful!!! He is NOT happy with his new accessory. I tried to tell him that it brings out his eyes but he doesn't believe me....he's just ticked.
So lucky me, Hank got all new prescriptions and was again given STRICT instructions to rest, rest, rest. I've also got to keep him somewhat locked up so that he stays still and out of trouble....for a whole WEEK! Seriously that's just torture on a kitty! And us!
Anway, that pretty much sums up all the interesting things that have happened around here lately. We are still counting down the days until warm and sunny Hoowadi....and yes that's spelled correctly....because according to Ross it's not Hawaii....it's Hoowadi! 6 days!!
