Feeling Peaky

Over the last few days I have not felt myself, rather lethargic and not very hungry, I have also been ill several times and made a mess on the carpet! Also feeling tired and sleeping more than usual as well not wanting to go into the garden. David noticed this and this evening he got out my personal carry conveyance and took me round to the V.E.T.

It is only a short drive but I registered my annoyance with a few miaows as we set off but being a sensible cat I quickly quietened down. After a short wait we went into see the V.E.T. named Alice. David explained my symptoms and then I had a good examination. Alice could feel nothing wrong with me and my temperature and heart rate were fine. I may have picked up a bug that has upset my stomach over the last few days. I had two injections (Cerenia and Zantac) I also have some tablets (Zitac) to stop me being sick. Alice recommended some plain food (Hills Prescription Diet pouches) and to have very small meals for a while. David is going to keep an eye on me and see how I get on.

After David waved a small piece of plastic at the receptionist we left the surgery, got back in the car and got home quickly. I tried the new food and enjoyed it, I even ate the little white table David had mixed in. I now plan to have a quiet evening with a little bit more food and a good nap.

Hopefully, I'll get over this in the next few days and be back to full health, bounding up and down the garden, like this.

Solitary Confinement!

Well! what can I say?  There I was, being a dutiful cat, checking on the condition of the greenhouse (rather untidy and too much clutter by the way) when the door was slid shut trapping me inside. It was starting to get dark but I thought David would be back soon to let me out to continue my rounds. Nooo... he obviously enjoyed his supper alone, switched off the lights and went off to a cosy bed. For that was it for the night trapped in the greenhouse with no food or water, not even a comfy cardbox or blanket to settle down on.

All that night I had to make myself comfortable and wait it out. As it was a week day David was up early and at about 6:30 he (rather sheepishly) opened the greenhouse door and I was free once again.
I was ready for my breakfast by this point and David duly obliged with a Sheba soup followed by my usual breakfast. It didn't make a fuss or complain ( as a soppy dog might have done) but I have told David that it must not happen again.

TV Birdwatching

Here I am doing a bit of TV bird watching. I don't pay attention to much TV (prefer Radio 4) but when there is a nesting bird to spot then that gets my attention!
