I’m back home and it all went well!
We had a bit of a rough start as I didn’t want to go inside my carrier. I know, I know. It was for the best but oh, friends, that loaner carrier from the pet hospital has too many not so good scents. It was freaking me out. Not even with my own blanket, which my human had put in there to help with the road trip I could bring myself to get in there.
After a few tries, my human convinced me to go in and the dreaded trip to the hospital started.
My human sister decided to accompany my human mom and me which was a good thing cause if you think I was upset, my poor human was even in a worse state. I decided to be very brave to help her feel better but still, she got that leaky eyes problem again, when I had to go inside and she was not allowed to come with me.
I gotta tell you, I wasn’t happy. My front leg was still somewhat tender from yesterday and then they pinched me some more and put some tubes in me. I didn’t like that at all. But then, I went to sleep and I don’t remember much after that.
When I woke up again, I had the taste of blood on my mouth and that wasn’t fun. I also felt “funny” which brought vague memories of a time long ago when something else was done to me at another hospital. Not precisely the happiest of memories.
Anyway, soon enough, they told me my human was there to take me home and they put me in MY OWN carrier. I know the kid is taken with it and now calls her fort, but it is mine. It has been mine for a number of years. However, I really don’t use it much. In fact, I’d be happy to never have to use it again so come to think of it, the kid can play with it all she wants.
Waiting to go home
Can we get it done with the picture taking and go home already?
The culprit, that darn canine
So!
The canine was extracted and I’m a 100% cat again. I think…
Now I just have to take the medication for a while but at least some of it tastes like beef so I guess it’s alright. My right paw is a bit swollen and of course, there’s some pain but good Dr. Young did send me home with pain killers on top of the antibiotics so I should be fine in no time!
And guess what?
My human got a hand written note among the paperwork. This it said:
Jay’s dental cleaning and extraction went very well today. He was a lovely patient and we all wish him a speedy recovery!
That should be enough to make even the grumpiest of cats smile, don’t you think?
All That JazzCat! 
My dear friend Jazz Cat Jay, we’re so happy all went well! Please take it easy for the next couple of days. Bowie says “Meow!” to you.
Thanks my friend. I will certainly take it easy. Right now I’m mostly hungry!
Please tell Bowie I say meow back
Glad you’re through it okay. Being a dog who does not like closed doors I have often shuddered when I have seen the carriers which you poor cats have to go in when you visit the vet.
I would not like that one bit.
Thank you!
Ah, the carriers… It is really complicated. On one hand, the feeling of being trapped is not good at all. We don’t like closed doors one bit either.
On the other hand, we cats like places to hide, were we don’t feel exposed. Carriers can help with that. Depending on the carrier, it can give us some sense of security cause we feel it is a good hiding place where we’ll be protected.
It really depends on the sounds and scents we’re getting from the outside too.
For example, the kid will play ALL day in the carrier and she’ll be quite happy. She even sleeps part of the night in it. But as soon as the front door is zipped up and it gets in motion, she will start meowing. Like me, she doesn’t like riding in cars
I’m glad it went smoothly. Take it easy for a while!
I will, Clowie. Thank you so much 🙂
Jay you’re so brave and I just know you’re glad that’s OVER WITH! I wish you a speedy recovery and no more “close encounters with canines” for you!!!
Kitty Hugs, Your Pal Sammy
Hear, hear! *knock on wood or something* 😉
Super news it went so well JCJ. You may well feel a little odd for a day or two after that knockout but to be pain free, it was all worth it. As we said to your human, we think the shot of you through the webbing of the carrier is wonderful =^..^=
You’re right. It’s quite odd not to have that tooth anymore but the good news is that I didn’t lose my appetite! Eating quite well and enjoying the nice treats my human is giving me 🙂
And yeah, that pic came out alright, who would’ve thunk!
JCJ! YEA! Ya go that doggie thingy out and now the dogs can’t take over your mouth…whew! You hang tuff my furriend….huge paw pats, Savvy
Thanks miss Savannah. It’s an odd feeling what with the hole and all but I’m quite happy with all the extra loving I’m getting MOL
Holy cow that’s a big culprit/teeth!
But good to know it all went well! 🙂
I wish you fast recovery.
And just imagine, half of the visible part of the tooth is missing there!
Soooo glad that all went well!!! Did you know that Cody used to have the same carrier? I had to give it away because I was afraid he was too fat for it and I didn’t want him flying through the bottom MOL!!
Enjoy your beef flavored meds and how wonderful it is when the vet gives a good report!!!
Yes, I remember you saying that before. I must say it’s quite comfy. But now of course, the kid uses it as her fort… or as a garage cause she thinks she’s a race car MOL
Glad to learn everything went fine! Get better real soon 🙂
Thank you! I am quite happy too. Now, just need to get it over with those annoying meds. I don’t care they are beef-flavoured! MOL
That’s a great advance in kitty medicine that they would “beef-flavor” medicine 😉
At least!!! 🙂
So glad it went well at the dentist for you. I wish you a speedy recovery.
Thank you! I am happy to be back home, I gotta admit
Good to see you back to your playful self so quickly, boy. 🙂
Thanks for making it happen!
