Happy Birthdays and cat update

[blamebrampton]

A very happy birthday to dumbys_baby and i_autumnheart, who are both nearly at the day after, but the phone was used! Fingers crossed life will calm down enough for the three of us to catch up in person before too long. Easter, I suppose.

Happy birthday also to celandineb who is such a force for good, I hope that the silly things that are plaguing you will stop soon and under_an_oak, who wages a glorious battle against faceless corporatism, with style and wit. I hope you have both been visited by the present fairy. Happy birthday for tomorrow to aoifene, you're lovely, but you know that.

OK, that's enough about people whose parents were frisky in June.

Saw Min this evening, she was mildly interested to see us, which changed to fairly interested when we pulled the tins of pink salmon from my handbag. She'd not been eating today, probably because they offered her cat food. After hoovering most of one tin, she looked up at us with an expression of mild satisfaction. The vet laughed a lot. We explained that when she was feral she lived on rats and scraps from the Thai restaurant and was fed tidbits by the posh restaurant crew.

She seemed in reasonable nick, if quiet and grumpy. She hates her drip, but may well lose it tomorrow if she keeps eating and drinking. And then it looks like chemo on Wednesday or Thursday morning.

Then we were trapped in a traffic jam on the North Shore, where people cannot manage a simple merge to the point they cause accidents. At least there's a fair chance it was an actual OAP ...

She has the vet staff all charmed, the dog below her in the cages is very whiny and she will walk to the front of her cage, look down, wait until one of the staff is looking at her, and then roll her eyes pointedly before going to the back of her cage.

They took the hint after the third time and now take the dog out for a little walk when she's fed up with him.

The uber vet still seems quite confident, see how things are on Wednesday after her first chemo.
