my poor kitty March 23, 2009
joy, delita, and meg…thank you guys so much. Your kind comments help more than you know. I know I was being negative, and I am usually not a negative person. I try to look on the bright side of things for the most part, but you know some days it all just kind of comes crashing down. I am feeling a little better (still stressed) but trying to be positive. I’ve been at work all weekend and am still here. I swear i feel like I live here every weekend. might as well not even go home. All I do at home is sleep then get up and go to work again. (there i go being negative again, lol) Anyway, something to add to my stress happened yesterday, but in a way its sort of comical. I’ll tell ya the story….. if you follow my blog, you probably know that i am a cat person. but not just any cat person….I have hairless cats (sphynxs) which I did put some pics up a couple months ago on this blog. anyway, yesterday at around 10 am I get woke up by my kids screaming that there is blood dripping on the floor and couch!! so of course we get up to investigate and find my boy kitty “baldwin” had part of his tail MISSING!!!! I mean, not totally missing, but the skin was torn completely off the tip of his tail to the BONE!!! I of course freaked! upon further investigation we found out that his tail had been caught in the door ten minutes earlier when my hubby slammed the door on his tail. DH says he did not know the cat was there and didn’t hear him meow or anything, so we assume the cat pulled his tail out of the door jam and thats when the skin pulled off. There was literally the tip of his tail laying there by the front door! so, we took him to the vet and they ended up amputating the tip (about 2 or so inches) of his tail. they gave him a shot of hard core antibiotics and said it should heal fine, he will just have a shorter tail. Needless to say I didnt get much sleep yesterday. He seems ok now, the vet said they dont have much nerves in the tail, so they can’t feel the pain like you would expect. So thats my crazy story for the day.
back to the whole weight blog thing, lol……… I weigh 203.6!!! woo hooo!!! two more lbs lost, now just waiting to get to Onederland. Ive been real good on food all week. Im going to work out after work in the morning so that I can spend some quality time with the family this evening. I miss them
talk to ya all later
Oh, I am sooo sorry to hear about your cat! It sounds like he is going to be ok- so that is wonderful! OMG- You are sooo close to onderland! You’ll be there in no time!
Ouch.. that must of hurt.. poor little thing! Congrats on the weight loss. You are doing amazing!
Oh my dear God! Poor kitty! We had a terrible scene at my house when the chihuahua lost his EYEBALL! Isn’t it a freaky scene to see pet blood everywhere?
OW I wanna tuck my tail in which I dont have, just reading that…. My cat always MEOWS when I step on her tail so maybe she’s overreacting? She does that… I don’t blame you for freaking out. I would’ve too. Oh well, kitty has some new character now. Hope he heals quickly.
Congrats on the 203 what an awesome number
