Fortnight
42
Friday
Oh
dear. I wasn't well last night. I had really bad diarrhoea
and I don't feel well today at all. Mum was out a lot
today and I slept on their bed most of the day.
Saturday
Mum
and dad spent the day pulling sheets of wallpaper off
in the kitchen. I knew if I went in, I would be in the
way so I stayed on my cushion and watched them until I
fell asleep with sheer boredom!
I played "Fetch" with mum for ages tonight.
It was nice to play for a while.
I
was ill again last night with diarrhoea, hope I don't
get taken to the vet again.
Sunday
Another night where I was ill. I heard mum on the 'phone
making me an appointment at the vets' on Monday morning.
I must make sure I hide so I don't have to go. The thing
they are worried about is that there was blood in the
mess in the litter tray and that's not a good thing.
This afternoon I felt so ill. I wanted to be sick and
was retching really badly but nothing would come out.
I haven't had any food since 1am this morning when I was
unwell so I guess I can't be sick as my tummy is empty.
I slept on mum's knee for a while and then played "fetch"
for a while.
Monday
I
knew I was going to the vet's this morning, when the cat
carrier came out I hid in the cupboard behind the TV.
There is a hole in the cupboard and you can get behind
the stairs. I hid in there for 2 hours, I know we missed
our appointment because I heard mum ring up and apologise.
I came out as I thought it was safe, but she grabbed me
and put me in the carrier and took me to the vets anyway.
It turns out I have gastroenteritis. That's why I have
an upset stomach and am being sick… more tablets AND
I have to go back on Wednesday. I wish I wasn't ill all
the time……
Wednesday
Mum took me back to the vets tonight, it was only a quick
visit this time, thankfully. I have another couple of
weeks of tablets and then I have to go back. The vet can
still feel a mass in my stomach and they think it may
be a kidney problem. I have to go back for tests in a
couple of weeks. I'm not having much luck lately am I?
Spent ages tonight playing. Now I feel better mum and
I play fetch for hours every night-time. It's wonderful.
I couldn't swallow my tablet this evening, mum kept trying
and I kept spitting it out, by the time we had finished
it was all slimy and mum put it on my biscuits in my food
bowl, how cruel is that? Now all my dinner stinks of tablets.
She managed to give it to me later in the evening and
gave me frsh biscuits, so I will let her off!
Friday
Oooooooh something weird is happening today. Everything
has been taken out of the kitchen again and it's all on
the table in my bedroom. I keep going to investigate.
So far I have stuck my head in the toaster (good job it's
not plugged in!) and smelling the kettle and the pans,
and I was sat in the big pan from the kitchen for ages
- well, until mum saw me and pushed me out of it… well,
what do they expect if they keep everything in my room.
I HAVE to investigate!
Some
strange bloke came this afternoon and started painting
the kitchen. I gave him lots of help until I got stuck
on the fresh gloss paint… now I have a white "go
faster" streak on my side and there are black
hairs on the doorframe. I wasn't allowed to help after
that!
Saturday
Last night was excellent. Because of the painting I was
not allowed to sleep in my room. My food, water and litter
box were put in the lounge and I got the run of the house
overnight. I played for a while and then curled up on
mum and dad's bed in-between them. It was nice and warm
and I was quite comfy until one of them rolled over onto
me. I retreated to a safe distance after that! I was again
locked out of my room during the day while the decorator
papered the kitchen. Mum , dad and nick all played with
me to keep me occupied.
Mum and dad went out this evening and I was locked in
my room for a while. It was nice to sleep on my cuddly
cushion again. I had a nice play when they got back though.
Sunday
A
whole day of playing "fetch", what a dream.
Mum was very sore and she didn't move from the settee
all day so I had a playmate for the whole time… nice one!
Tuesday
Mum has had some injections in both her knees and she
has to rest for a few days. Yet again she is on the settee
all day. I have been helping her feel better by giving
her cuddles and letting her play with me. When I got bored
I fell asleep in the seat of her wheelchair. It was nice
and comfortable. This evening I found a new game. Lick
the wheelchair. It feels nice and makes a weird noise.
I was licking the Velcro strips that hold the seat on,
think of it like combing your tongue! They were laughing
at me, but I thought it was nice so I carried on doing
it for nearly an hour.
Wednesday
Mum is still sore so I have been cuddling her trying to
make her feel better. She gives me cuddles back, but I
don't think she is feeling any better. She still looks
upset to me! I must try harder to help her.
Friday
I
had a nice trip on the stairlift today. It was at the
top of the stairs with the seat down and I decided to
sit on it for a rest. Mum came over and she started it
going down the stairs. I sat on it until it reached the
bottom and then jumped off and jumped on my cushion. What
an excellent way of getting down the stairs without using
any energy… bit slow though, I am much faster. It was
a nice trip though.
