Humbug

[woolymonkey]

Humbug has asked me to thank all who wished him well. He is taking his pills like a good kitty (in fact, more like a cuddly toy, but you didn't hear that from me) and feeling a lot better today. He's even eaten his cruchy fudz and ventured Outdoors briefly, though his exit through the penguin chute* was slow and creaky. Tomorrow he goes back to the vet to see if he can stop the cat drugs yet.

*For those who haven't seen it, Humbug's penguin chute is a particular square in the trellis over our sloping-topped garden wall. Leicester climbs over the top like a proper cat and jumps down, but Hummie (who can climb to the top and sit there) prefers to climb down again and squeeze his 8" x 8" fluff through a 4" x 4" hole, leaving his back paws in their white socks to exit last--like a penguin diving off an ice floe. I have a video that I'll post on themonkeycats when I have time, and when someone more techsavvy has transferred it to the pc for me.

Excellent to hear he's better. Drugs are a wonderful thing!

He has more drugs! Another antibiotic shot this morning, just to make sure the improvement lasts. He's back to his usual cheery self now, though sulking about having to go back to the vet when he's not feeling ill.
