In which I have an operation...

Hi fans...

well yesterday I went back to meet that nice vet who mum said would have a big impact on my life. I don't know why she said that, because he's really nice to me, but apparently sometimes vets can be a bit bossy.

Anyway mum left me there in my basket and I was shouting a lot because she hadn't given me any food since the night before, but the ladies in green - they're called nurses - gave me cuddles and looked after me. They cut a bit of fur off my leg and then I went to sleep for a bit which was fine, and when I woke up I was being fussed over again by the nurses and they kept checking my bottom for some reason. Anyway it felt a bit sore and I checked it out and I think there's something missing, but never mind, I felt fine and I was given some food - at last! - and then later in the day mum came back to get me and took me home and that was that.

Mum has made a fuss of me, she said the nurses told her I had to be kept quiet but she found that really difficult because I'd been so lazy that I wanted to rush about everywhere, and I kept taking her toys to throw for me and she kept wanting to cuddle me but I didn't want to, so in the end she just let me wear myself out.

Today I've been really lively too, I went out in the garden and checked out the cat run, but even though it's sunny it was still cold outside, so I came back indoors and tried to snuggle up with Suki who was in a sunny patch inside, but she got annoyed 'cos I kept wanting her to play with me and she just wanted to lie in the sunshine. Never mind, I quite liked lying there with her, she's very nice but can be a bit snooty; sometimes I think it's because she's really old and she's a beautiful cat who's won loads of things at shows.

Mum heard from my sister Tui's mum too; she had an operation as well (Tui,that is) and has to wear a lampshade on her head. How embarrassing is that! That's because she's got stitches in her tummy. I haven't got any in my tummy. Mum tells me it's a different operation for Tui. But apparently Tui is doing really well. My other sisters haven't had an operation yet but I think they'll have one soon. It's fine, everyone fusses over you, but i didn't like the bit when I couldn't have breakfast.

More soon....
