• Thanks, Kate. Nothing yet. But I felt like a total rat this morning. The other cats were so darn hungry that we ended up putting Cricket in our room so we could feed the other 4. But Cricket very quietly cried all the way to Gerry's office and then on to the vet's, pushing his little paw through the carrier door. When I'd reach back and stick my fingers in, he'd rub up against my hand. And the poor guy looked panic stricken when they took him to the back. I'm nervous, worried and feel like that proverbial "cat with a long tail in a roomful of rocking chairs." Oh, please, just let him be okay and please let this be the right decision.

  • My prayers are with you Sandy....I'll call you as soon as I leave the office this afternoon.... (NT) -- Kate, 9:56:05 am, Mon, 07/30/07
    • I've been thinking of you all day.......... Any news yet? {{HUGS}} Sandy. (NT) -- V~, 6:05:10 pm, Mon, 07/30/07
      • We got Cricket home about 4:30 and he was still pretty out of it. He was happy though to see us and did his "Rooowwww" at us several times on the ride home. He had some trouble getting his hind legs under him when he came out of the carrier and was staggering around like he was on a 3 day binge. He ate just a little, which came right back up, but now he's sleeping at the back door, on the rug, with his head propped on Dad's shoes. We haven't dared to try to look at his mouth, although the vet said he did beautifully. They lasered off all of the bloody, hamburgery tissue down to clean mucous membrane. Oh, and the X-rays don't show any missed roots. They thought they saw one but after checking the gum and digging for it, there was nothing there. (NT) -- Sandy, 6:14:20 pm, Mon, 07/30/07
        • So now, we just wait. It's been a horrible day.........!! Oh, we got more rain last night and today, which we needed badly, but I had opened the windows when I got home from dropping Cricket off and just about the time I got ready to close the house up and turn the a/c back on, our power went out. It was about 80 in the house but the humidity was at 74% and the dew point was over 70. With no a/c, no moving air, no fans, no nothing, it was just plain miserable. The electrical company got our power back up about 2 hours later but now, Cinnamon is sick. He can't handle the heat and especially, the humidity, so while we were eating dinner, he went to the basement and puked all over everything!!! And I DO mean all over. Now we just want to rest............all of us. Very, very long day. (NT) -- Sandy, 6:19:10 pm, Mon, 07/30/07
          • Kate, I hope you got my voice mail. I'm so sorry I missed your call but like I said, I had just gotten off the phone with the vet..........so I started vacuuming and never heard my phone ring. Either way, it was nice playing phone tag with you. I think I need to get a wrist strap or something so I can hang my phone from one of my necklaces and then I'll hear it ring. This phone doesn't ring quite as loud as my old one and I don't always hear it. Anyway, I'm sorry. (NT) -- Sandy, 6:21:57 pm, Mon, 07/30/07
            • I got your voice mail..and CAN'T believe I missed you call....
              I had called you on my way home from work, and left my voice mail. When I pulled into the driveway I saw where the paper had been delivered..so I stopped the car at the end of the driveway and ran across the road to grab the paper and see if the mail was there....I then get back in the car and pull into the garage..I'm just opening the door and my phone makes it's "you've got voice mail" noise...!! So, I too, was right there and still missed your call!!!! (NT) -- Kate, 7:30:18 pm, Mon, 07/30/07
          • Boy you really have had your hands full today...I hope Cinnamon is better....Josie doesn't do well with the heat either.....Sure hope all of you get some much needed rest tonight... (NT) -- Kate, 7:38:58 pm, Mon, 07/30/07
        • Awww, poor Cricket......I'm so glad he came through the procedure ok and that he is home safe and sound with you.....I hope he is feeling a little better by now and maybe even eating a little for you.....does he have to go back to the Vet's for a check-up? (NT) -- Kate, 7:37:22 pm, Mon, 07/30/07

• Poopy day, huh? Glad he is home and can't wait for you to check his mouth and report! Mine always want to eat and then puke too. Hope the rest of your evening went well, your power stayed on and you sleep well! (NT) -- Denise, 8:02:14 pm, Mon, 07/30/07
