Day 6 - Wednesday 19 September - Ignored by mummy!


This morning I felt even better than yesterday! Alright, I still suffer from diarrhoea, but I’m taking so many different kinds of medication that that’s not really a surprise. Nevertheless, my mummy called the vet to voice her concern! The vet reassured her that it was the medication, likely the antibiotics, and that it would go away once my medication stopped. Anyway, there’s only so much television you can see right? It’s been fun, in my catcave, but it’s time to get out now and get back to business!

I was determined to get out and tried passing mummy’s hands several times, but she wouldn’t let me! I wouldn’t give up though, like I did yesterday, and tried every trick in the book to get out. I started mewing softly and complainingly, but she ignored me! The nerve! I reached with my paw to her to get her attention, but she ignored me again! I stood on my hindlegs to see if there was an exit near the ceiling, but there wasn’t any that I could find. Eventually I decided that if I was going to be stuck here, I might as well try and clean that weird leg of mine. But she wouldn’t let me do that either and put my hood back on!



*sigh* I guess it’s back to catTV for me…

A good thing is that my big stepbrother Sirius now comes to visit me more often to check up on me. He walks around the cage, trying to find a way in, but then when my mummy opens the door to let him in, he just sniffs me a few times and then walks out again?! Men are weird!



Update: I don’t really understand how this hood works. It’s transparent, I can see my leg, but I can’t touch it? Every time I bend over to try and clean my leg, it’s as if an invisible force field tries to stop me! Eventually I then give up and lie down in defeat…

Day 4 - Monday 17 September - Tricky cat tower!

Today was my first real day at home and we were all very excited! My mummy had placed the bench and her desk with her laptop on it in her bedroom, so she could take care of me 24/7. Fortunately she can work from home, and now when she sits behind her laptop working, she only has to look to her left to see what I’m doing. She had found her old pink university laptop (the battery won’t charge – but it can still be used with the power cable) and had put that one on the ground so I could watch catTV during the day and I wouldn’t get too bored while she was working. She had furthermore bought me a tower for my cat food so I would get even less bored in my bench. I really liked that idea, and the smells coming off it were delicious, so I immediately tried getting the food out. However, after a few minutes I gave up. It was just too difficult. My mummy tried teaching my how to remove the cat food by moving the kibbles around with her finger and pushing them through the holes. I

Day 7 - Thursday 20 September - Metallic scrunchies!

Today was a bit chillier than yesterday, so I felt a bit tired and lethargic. Because I wasn’t as alert as usual my mummy checked up on me because she was worried. She felt my ears and they didn’t feel as warm as usual, so she made me a hot water bottle and wrapped me in a towel. That perked me right up! I snuggled in the blanket practically the entire day.  Not the entire day though, since she got me a cat board for my kibblets! Doctor M recommended it to her. She said that her cats love it so much that she now uses it every day for all their dry food! My mother had high hopes for it since it was a board, and not a tower, which meant that I could see all the little kibblets lying there, just waiting for the grabbing…   At least, that was the idea! I didn’t feel really hungry today, perhaps because of the cold weather, so I didn’t feel like fishing for kibblets and gave up after half a minute or so to watch CatTV. There was one thing my mummy gave me which
