I feel as if he's spent the past two weeks lying on this bed, just patiently waiting to get better (except when he's caterwauling).
I take off his Zen Collar a few times a day to let him feel more normal. The great news is that, if the stitches come out, he won't need the collar anymore! He also won't have a bandage anymore!
We are heading to a Friday afternoon vet visit. Happy Friday!
P.S. Could someone tell the Mother Nature that it's springtime? This was the scene outdoors today.
I hope the stitches were ready to come out and R will feel a lot more "himself"...except for the high-activity part. What a good boy he is being.
ReplyDeleteAnd I hope your migraines take a hike and never come back! I've been listening to guided meditations on my laptop when I wake up in the wee hours with a splitting headache (not a migraine, though, fortunately) and can't get back to sleep. It must be helping, because I do fall asleep and usually get another 2 or 3 hours, which really helps.
Oh, we hope they can come out. And speaking of out maybe the sun needs to come out and melt that snow!
ReplyDeleteYour Pals,
Murphy & Stanley
So glad to hear R is continuing to do well. Sweet, sweet boy.
ReplyDeleteHEY! MOTHER NATURE...IT'S SPRINGTIME IN THE ROCKIES!
Safe travels to the vet with all that snow. We bet that "R" will feel a lot happier without the collar. HOpe the stitches can be removed. Hang in there, R - you are doing a great job!!!
ReplyDeleteGlad R is progressing nicely! Very hard to imagine still having snowy weather! We've had the A/C on for about a week now due to humid air and also the high pollen content of the air.
ReplyDeleteThat's some good news R, we're cheering you on handsome boy.
ReplyDeleteHope you had a good visit!
ReplyDeleteGood luck R, in time you will be up and around

Stitches out, maybe the sun will follow suit, and is that your home up the hill a bit? What a super outlook, winter or summer.

I am crossing my paws that the stitches can come out and the positive healing process continues!
ReplyDeletewe hope that the vet has good news for you today R... and we sure hope that Mother Nature will fire that Mr. Winter now :o)
ReplyDeleteIf it were colder here it would look like that. It's been raining since Wednesday and predicted to continue until next week. Ugh!
ReplyDeleteDear R - best wishes at the vet!
We're glad R is recovering nicely. Sorry about the lingering winter weather.
ReplyDeleteHope the vet went well!
ReplyDeleteI told Mother Nature to send you some sunshine,, and no more snow. I hope she listens.
ReplyDeleteWith R being "no activity " for awhile,, it reminds me of when I had to be tied to mommy for a long time after my surgerys
I hope R feels better soon
love
