Well, I deserve them. I just took Goldie to the Vets and left her there for spaying

and I am about to crumble into

Well done, it's the best thing you could do for her.

I know.



I need a BIG

Aww... A couple of days, as she won't even notice anything's been done

No worries, GB. Goldie will probably greet you as affectionate as always when you pick her up from the vet.

Ahhh at last aanother responcible pet owner, join me club mate, I have 4 greyhounds bitches.

Keep the hugs coming, I'm most grateful. It feels like real hugs when I read them, honest.

Kitties , just as humans, respond differently to anaesthesia.

Her Supreme Catesty always has been for almost a day both times she was anaesthetised. Li'l Kitty, and Lynx have just been looking at me like "hey, where have you been? I wanna go home and eat now."

However, last time Lynx was sleeping it was unplanned - he wasn't co-operative at all when the vet should check his teeth.

I think if I were a cat - and therefore unaware of what was about to happen - I'd be a bloody sight more confused as to where my favourite attachments had gone!

and that my friend may be the biggest difference between us and the other animals

Oooh - I just now read this. I trust goldilocks is being waited on hand and foot during recovery? as opposed to the normal amount of waiting upon hand and foot?

She is looking after me this morning. Empty nest!

Goldie has a check-up this morning, although her scar & stitches look fine to me, no weepage or bleeding and she's not had any ill effects like they said she might.

That's because she's had a brilliant

and she's fine, back next Thursday to have the stitches removed

Thanks lil

Stitches removal went well, and today she's had her first injection. And I got a bill
