1st night

We had our 1st night after surgery and Precious is back to normal. And I have a bad cold. I picked him up from the vet and he slept all the way home. Not a single meow. He meowed when we got home, but only a couple times. Groggy like a drunk, he tried to walk around and I placed his pet bed in front of him. He wobbled toward it, then stopped and laid on the floor. I picked him up and set him on his pet bed.

Next I finished a movie with many dark scenes and whispering so it was hard to tell what was going on. I checked on Precious to find him walking around the hallway. He followed me back into the living room and fell asleep in my lap. Soon it was time for food to be offered. Precious wasted no time eating something and fell asleep with his nose in the food dish. Didn't drink any water. I laid down on the floor so Precious wouldn't have far to go for food and cuddled with the kitty. Even little boys need their mamas. For a strange reason I felt very tired anyway and needed a nap.

When it was time for bed I put Precious in my bed and cuddled against him. My sleepiness was explained by not being bad allergies because of the rain (I turned on the air conditioning to rid the humidity), but a cold when my nose refuse to stop running. I hate summer colds. The heat and humidity make me feel worse.

Morning came without much sleep. Even Precious had a hard time sleeping with me sitting up to blow my nose and shaking the bed sneezing. After I called my volunteer place to say I would come next week instead, Precious seemed to be more active. I went to sleep. I got up at 2:30 well rested and feeling a little better. Precious drank most of his water and ate most of his food. I have to go shopping today because I'm out of beverages. I have to write a Thank you note for my aunt's kitty gift of $10. I have to tell her it was very nice of her and tell her Precious is a him. Plus everyone at work says my cat is spoiled. I say my cat is not spoiled, he is loved. A friend actually told me it was a good thing I didn't have kids, they would be spoiled rotten and spoiled kids are very demanding. I spoiled my nieces with love and lots of presents, but they are ok with the word no. They are good kids and Precious is a sweet kitty. Besides, the thing Precious and my nieces demand most of all is my attention. I have plenty to spare. Post later. Bye!
