MUMMY IS ILL

Hello all,

A quick writing from myself

I have been feeling off still and so has mummy.

So I have been stopping mummy from doing her writing. She must rest!

Here is me stopping her:

I do believe she won't manage to write much with me like this. I did lay down and go to sleep after mummy took my picture like this.

I like to be of help. I was helping mummy rest.

VETS AGAIN

I write this a little delayed. 

This is based on the weekend of October 18th Sunday.

I feel so unwell. I've had a terrible night. Who would know that eating a tiny bit of yummy food that mummy dropped on the floor could cause so much pain!

I'm never eating again! Never I tell you!

Ok maybe I shouldn't say that on  the Internet in writing. I love my food; when I'm well.

Mummy called the vet this morning as my tummy is swollen badly, I am restless, I don't sit and cuddle the same instead I will sit on the side and the I will flop as though I can't withhold myself.

I did find overnight that if mummy rubbed my belly gently I was more settled but if mummy stopped then I'd get up and wouldn't settle again.

Which this meant that mummy was awake nearly night with me as I couldn't settle.

We watched a lot of films but the one we liked the best was one called 'Mighty Joe Young' which is from the makers of King Kong. It was really good, it had the huge gorilla in like King Kong, and was set in Africa to start with then went to New York. There were lots of animals involved, so I got to learn all about them as mummy was distracting me from my pain by teaching me about them.

This morning after mummy's carer leaving and when my vets had opened, mummy asked if I wanted to go see my vet Emma, so we decided it was the best idea after mummy talking to a friend too about my condition overnight. I really hope they help.

At the vets they checked me over, asked about what happened, how I had been since, how I had been responding in the last few hours to going in and then decided on treatment plan to making sure that I would survive this illness.

The plan is injection and then ultrasound next couple days if no improvement. Contact daily to see how I am and puréed food. 

Now I've been told to rest up and be gentle on my diet. Puréed food, heated boiled biscuits, no treats and no meat. Boy this is going to be boring bland few weeks; but is needed to make sure I get well again and that I survive this so I can create havoc once again.

I hope to write again soon with a more upbeat positive post of better health

CRACKING THE CODE

I've managed to work out how to open my automatic food bowl which mummy has got for me.

I can now get my food whenever I want, but this means I won't have a meal for the next time, like breakfast or tea; whichever comes next from the time we at.

I keep pawing it and slide at same time and I manage to crack it open. 

Mummy now hides the bowl from me but how will this work when mummy isn't here and needs to set the bowl so I can have my tea for when she is going to be late home? I will have my tea early in the day as I will be in the room and I can open the bowl.

It's a tasty method of opening the bowl but my belly will be hungry when I don't get fed then on the next meal time.

MY FIRST VET TRIP

Mummy noticed I have many marks among me.

They don't hurt me but I have bald patches with blood clumps.

I'm not scratching and I'm not upset by them, so they fleas or an aggravate so mummy got me in with the vets.

Mummy's mummy came over that evening to help get us up there as mummy isn't feeling good herself. So we went in the car.

The vet was lovely.

I got checked over. I was so well behaved. And mummy said because of that I could have a special evening meal.

The vet said the marks on me is down to allergic reaction but unsure what but also infection, so I was well behaved and got given two shots, one for infection and one for allergy.

I then have monthly treatment for three months.

It was quite nice in a way as I got to see the vet, Emma, who treated me for my eye and operated on me.

So we are glad we went so we know that I'm safe and all is well. We had a few ideas in our minds and we really wasn't sure what one to agree with, so we needed the vet to confirm it. So now it's confirmed we know for sure.

My first vet trip with mummy is over, and no complaints here. 

Oh I also got a weight check, I'm a stocky fella! I now weigh more. I'm gaining weight as my mummy is losing weight. And yet we need it round the other way. Ive been told to keep an eye on my weight now as mummy has been told to keep an eye on increasing as must happen. What a pair we make!

NAUGHTINESS ONCE AGAIN

Mummy really is getting fed up of telling me off.

She only got back late last night and we spent time cuddling like I spoke about in last blog ‘first time alone’. And now I'm being naughty again and mummy is telling me off. I'm being sent to my bed constantly, yet I'm that naughty I won't go to bed.

This is not going well at all.

There is one big bear that really gets mummy after some time, and I don't give in; so mummy gets annoyed and tells me off.

Mummy got a lovely runner mat for near the front door in the hallway, and I believe this to mean that it is my scratching may come toy of ‘how much can I scrunch it up into a ball’.

Well mummy isn't impressed with this approach.

Mummy has got me a scratching post too, and I do use it, occasionally. But I just prefer the one in the hall, the mat, which isn't mine. So anyone got any ideas to what mummy can buy to deter me doing this as I keep getting told off and I dislike this and mummy hates doing it but there is a point it gets too and she just won't ignore me doing it anymore to the mat anymore.

I really must learn to behave, and mummy is great at teaching me right and wrong with rewards and fuss when good behaviour but I still don't understand the runner mat approach; so I need some more help please.

Any links would help please.

Please give these to my mummy as my paws make it difficult to order items without ordering hundreds and I think mummy wouldn't be too pleased with that either.

Thank you in advance

PHOTO SHARE

Hi all, just a quick share of a photo that mummy took. 

I don't feel like writing much for two reasons, I don't have long to write before my access to internet goes and it won't post & also I'm very sleepy as you can see in the picture.

I love mummy's new cushion she has got on her powerchair, it's my favourite spot in the house now; which also means I'm always with mummy.

Back to snoozing now

FUNNY PHOTO UPDATE

Hello there, so since my mummy came home from hospital I have stuck to her like glue. It's been fun in some ways. And funny in an odd annoying way apparently too.

When her carers come I won't leave her, I'm sitting on her and wanting fuss, so making it very hard for them to help her get dressed. They all laugh but after a while I think they do truly get annoyed; but I just can't leave my mummy.

And then there's when she is she sitting in her powerchair and going round the house. I'm on her. I'm lazy I ride with her now.

But the one I find the best. Mummy does creative writing, and I'm sitting on her book, playing with her pen and generally making it hard with getting my paws in the way too.

It's great fun.

I love having this closeness with mummy.

Bye
