Mischief Monday - May the 4th Be With You and Not Fun - by Styx

May the 4th Be With You

I guess I should be grateful she doesn't have the gold bikini

Stupid look do I 

 

Hi friends, hi friends, hi friends,

I had the worst day ever last week. It was bad, bad, bad. Ok, maybe it was not the worst day ever, I did live in a shelter, but it was one of the worst days I have had since coming to live with my people. It started normal with breakfast and love and then I was being shoved into a crate and Gris was also being shoved into her crate and we then had to sing, and sing and sing for a very long drive and we ended at the vet. I sang the ride there (25 minutes), most of the time in the clinic (45 minutes) and the ride home (another 25 minutes). Gris only joined me on the ride there. 

They had a great window at the vet where we got to see so many cars, more cars then we see in a month at our house. It was very exciting. 

The people at the vet are nice and tried to give me treats, but I was not falling for their tricks.  Gris totally was bought with this.

In good news, other than needing to lose some weight as she is close to 17 lbs, Gris is healthy. 

In not good news, first they suggested I had weight to lose (too many treats with Lanie). I am about 13.5 lbs. In bad, bad, maybe bad, we aren't sure yet, but maybe bad news, I have a grade 2-3 heart murmur.  In June, I will be going to a cardiologist because no one can tell how serious or not serious this is right now.  I don't have any symptoms. Lady and Man have never had a cat need a specialist before, so I am super, super, specials. I think my problem is my heart is too, too, too big! I love, love, love everyone and everything. My heart wants to sing, sing, sing too! 

Hanging up high while the Lady and vet chatted. We match the wall! 


I was happy to be home and unlike Gris, who did not seem bothered in any way by her ordeal, I was a bit tired and not hungry the rest of the day. I was back to my busy, loving self the next day.

I promise, promise, promise, to share my journey as we go through it. Lady said it is an adventure!

your pal, with a whispering heart, Styx

  2. Sorry you had to go to the vet. My paws are crossed that the murmur isn't too bad and is manageable.

  3. We hope the specialist helps you out with your heart murmur, Styx, and you can go on to live a long happy life. May the fourth be with you! The hat really brings out the beautiful color of your eyes!

    Aw heck, Blog post was late and now I am too - I add my POTP to the ether circle that when you get to that specialist (who deals with extra special cats), that he says you are really quite ordinary, because, you know, when it comes to health, ordinary ain't so bad! But if you are special in health, I know that you are in exactly the right place for the care and attention!!! Hugs and whiskeries, YAM-aunty xxx
