Yesterday was a full day of recovery. I said nothing..did nothing and spent the day sleeping to recover from being so badly used. (The Vet visit with the surprise bath) Mom said that it will have to be an emergency before I have another one! My doctor told my mom I needed one badly and I really did though neither of us knew that until I came home much thinner what with the old OLD underfur gone, and just the new there. And I am as silky as a piece of the Emperor's robe. Before I was only soft.
I surprised mom by coming into her room right after she went to bed and climbed up to be on her chest. Then, I eased on down to her neck and shoulder as in old times. I knew she would be happy and after all we both went thru I gave her the gift of me. I stayed over an hour snugged up tight to her and then I left..not to say a word ALL night..just at 0630 as always, I sounded reveille. That's my job.
I have not been laying by the water dish any more. I suppose it could be thought now that since I have had my allergy shot I no longer itch miserably and me..being a sea faring kitty thought water would help..alas it did not. But my proximity to water all the time was worrying mom. I was seeking relief and neither of us knew it.
Mom is sleepy though as the night before, she was awake frequently wondering if I was OK after the trauma I went thru. Last night, she didn't sleep much because her oldest was home and she stayed up to talk to him. I woke her early anyway.
Thought I would say that mom is OK again in my book. For now. I know she dreads when I have to go back for a shot (not a bath..but I will only remember the bath).
Bye for now. I am in my fleece bed and this is being written by a servant from my notes.
Avast!

Dear Admiral,
I am so relieved that you are feeling better. If you feel good, mom feels good.
Have a peaceful night, both of you.
Hugs,
Beth
So happy to hear your feeling so much better and so is your mom.
My mom took the christmas tree skirt away so I could lay under the tree and play with what I could reach.
With Much Love
Paris and
her Mom.
Yay!
strokes and scratches under chin for you, dear.
I'm glad that the Admiral understands that Mom was only doing what was necessary. And isn't it nice to have a cozy home again!
I am a striped tabby who spent my early years with owner's daughter. It was a difficult time and now I have a skin condition. I like to pull the hair out around my tummy. The vet will have to visit me again, because I am still a hair puller. The lady's grandson is very loud and scary, so I just keep on pulling. I am glad you are feeling better. I like snuggling too!
