Brief, this morning. No knitting
yesterday.
Something is wrong with one of
Perdita's back legs or hips. She is reasonably cheerful and alert,
eating reasonably. I am undecided about whether to take her to an
emergency vet or wait until normal working hours tomorrow. She was
perfectly all right yesterday morning.
Archie took these pictures of the
Glenisla Shield yesterday, I think the best we've got, even though it
takes two to convey the idea. I won it for Sam the Ram in the year of
our Golden Wedding.
And Helen dug the potatoes which our
gardener had put in. My poor garden! But at least that much of it has
been redeemed.
But this is what Games Day boiled down
to:
And on top of all my other troubles, Blogger is having trouble with pics. I'll try to add the essential illustrations later in the day. Perdita is well enough to try to help with Blogger. I think the vet can wait until tomorrow.
Give Perdita a gentle massage..young cats can injure themselves with their antics :) she might also find it relaxing.....
ReplyDeleteWill Helen bring you some of the potatoes? Nothing like them freshly dug, is there?
ReplyDeleteCats can bump and bash themselves just the same way we do, without any more lasting damage than being a bit stiff and bruised for a day or two. She is still very young though so not a bad idea to get her checked over tomorrow if she's still hobbling.
ReplyDeleteBut in the meantime, check her paws. A splinter or stone or cut in a pad can cause them to limp too. Or a torn claw.
