Hemingway, why did Mom have to go to the vet?
Steinbeck, I’ve told you before. We go to the vet but Mom goes to a doctor. The vet takes care of us fur people.
Have you seen Mom’s hair in the summer? It’s pretty furry!!!
She doesn’t go to the vet for herself. However, she did have to go see her doctor. Turns out that when she broke her heart and they had to open her up and then put her back together again, they had some problems.
They didn’t have to open her all the way up again, did they?
Oh no. This was just an out patient surgery. Remember? She came home later that afternoon. They told her they had to fix an incisional hernia.
That sounds awful. Hey, wait a minute. We can’t get that!!!
Why not?
‘Cuz it’s a hernia!!! If it was on us, it would have to be a hisnia.
Steinbeck, I hate to admit it but you might be on to something there.
From the Mom: I did have a hernia operation last week and it still really hurts a lot. Everything you do seems to involve your stomach muscles, as I’ve quickly and painfully discovered. Hisnia or Hernia, it’s been taken care of and a few more days of rest and relaxation should get me back on the road to recovery. Oh, and the boys have had to quickly learn not to jump on me!
Wishing your Mom all the best, my dear furry fiends! Please take good care of your human…
Mom says we’ve been doing a really good job. We want her to stop going to the hospital.
Well Mom and I are both glad the people-vet fixed your Mom but you boys must be careful because she’s recovering and doesn’t need cats hopping on her tummy! Be careful – Moms can break just like our toys can…..OK?
Hugs, Teddy
Teddy, that’s really making everything clear. We hate it when our toys break and we hate it even more when Mom breaks!
We hope they are being good nurses and giving you lots of purrs therapy. Get we’ll soon. XOCK, angel Lily Olivia, angel Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, angel Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth, Calista Jo, Cooper Murphy, Sawyer & Kizmet
You are all so wonderful. Mom says she always loves hearing from you and so do we.
Oh! Ouch! Don’t jump up, kids. Mom and I hope your mama gets well soon and once and for all! Then you can jump up all day long! Yay!
Love and licks,
Cupcake
Thanks, Cupcake. We must admit that sometimes we forget but Mom usually has a pillow handy. We’re all learning.
Ouch, that does sound painful. It’s too bad you had to have that. Hope you recover quickly.
Mom says thanks. She’s finally starting to feel better today.
Purrayers that your Mama is better soon so she can easily bend down to put the food bowls on the floor.
And the water bowls! MOL!!
I hope you are feeling better soon! I’m sending some healing purrs, to supplement the ones I’m sure you’re already getting from the boys.
Oh, Mom loves all those purrs! Thanks so much.
We are glad that you guys are taking good care of your Mom. It’s hard to believe that our peeps can be fragile. We send your Mom healing purrs! Have a marvellously happy day!.
Thanks, everyone! We’ll be sure to tell Mom!
