Sam the Sinister Cat went to the vet today. He normally gets very sick in the car, but he felt so bad that he did not eat this morning, so he was “running on empty.” He wasn’t very sinister either.
The lump that seemed so hard and didn’t seem painful when I first discovered it turned out to be an abscess. It was opened today by Dr. Dotson and he is spending the night at the Bristol Animal Clinic. I know it is scary for him to be caged and at the vet clinic overnight, but I’ll bet he is much more comfortable there than he was at home last night.
Since I’m working tomorrow, Mike will be picking him up.
I miss that mean little face tonight. I’m the only one he likes!
Hey, thanks for the update. I was wondering how Sam was doing and was going to email you. Bless his heart. You know, Hotrod had had two trips to the vet for his teeth. He has all his “little” teeth but even with antibiotics, is down to one fang. He gets soft food twice a day now. He is an oldie but a goodie. Every morning down at Hal’s he starts his LOUD meowing for someone to get up and open a can for him. When I look at him with his one fang I think of Bucky, the cat in the comics who has only one fang. It doesn’t faze either one of them.
I’ve wondered so many times about Hotrod. Even with one fang, he has been a very lucky cat.
Awww, let me know if I can help, will be around.
So glad Sam’s problem wasn’t serious. Poor thing!
