Success ...
already eating croquettes ...
pardon the fotos, apparently my phone says its been since half 2023 since i took a picture with that thing, but ....
if the weeds bother you you can come over ill hand you the burner and you can remove them so you can peer into my place as if thats okay and see a weedless path ... no proper vergif here obviously since there's animals and also ... im at about 4m² and i had a few things on my mind in general i dont even care that its there ...
"make sure he drinks some water" CHECK !
Akshully i let him out of the box upstairs next to his preferred rooms and he basically went like "wut happened? did something happen?" went around, for the croquettes immediately but probably the memory (a la pavlov?) held him back ... down the stairs i give him some wet food and hep ... pour some catmilk and hep ... straight away - goes to the door immediately ofcourse i move to chaperone and immediately passes by his favourite watering spot , just once and then twice and after checking like O THIS DOESNT HURT thundercats are go
Cost less than expected but still an amount we would have to pay in chunks or else eat zurkel from the garden for the rest of the month ... but already explained how things are ...
1000 people across a department between here and brussels of which half work from home half the time .... SEE IT IS POSSIBLE ? and manageable ... it comes down to the baas and controlfreakery ...
it does, doesn't it ? it probably requires some professionalism and sense of responsibility but at the end standing at the side waiting for the bus and train at seven while starting at 9+ greetings and ohaio 9:30 or starting at 7 at home ? in a stressless environment ???????
its 2025, right, not to mention the offload on traffic jams , co² output and all that FINE dust in the air ?
its controlfreakery isnt it ? corporate fishtank mongering (and i always thought it has something to do with tax deduction over cost of property, you know something american enabling amazon and Goldman Morgan to pay €20 in taxes for a whole year or something ...
anyway ...
Grooming like a boss ...
There, i ... i noticed somethat WAS wrong like the day before yesterday but you know sometimes they can have stomachache, last time it took like half a day and then he threw up (on the bed .. but you know, we're always hoping humans dont smack their infant psychopaths to be for shitting their pampers) and then was all like "nothing .... !"
(mind you he didnt drink as far as i know for like 48 hours which is pretty bad ... but he was in care before the full 48 hours so to speak - thats how bad it musta hurt so i have to assume it was hurting way before i noticed .... cats dont complain much, thats one of the bigger problems you need to really be careful and have an eye for it ...)
That only now his invigorated enthusiasm shows how much i didnt notice at first but tbh his fur was still smooth and as we said : cats dont complain, he went outside his usual spots , but the thing is after we saw and kept an eye he didnt eat AND drink ... until yesterday and then growling from the pain ...
So
Its like day 'n night but more over, i expected at least some anxiety or distance after putting him in a box and leaving him there alone overnight but its almost like he makes the link between having gone there and feeling better now ...
That is ofcourse potential filling in the dots where there are no lines but in all these decades im really convinced animals have a sense of trust and some base-level understanding of who helped them , maybe more ground-level understanding than any homo-centrist would be willing to admit and as said before ... cats definitely have gestalt-brain ... its just not human gestalts ...
and with this .. goes the day. He was purring within five minutes of being out of the box and home, and has been nothing but moving around , lying in the sun , attacking two or three croquettes like he always does, and coming over for headscratches and pettings ...
All in all id say the little man is quite content with the current situation, compared to yesterday its like he's completely fixed .. as good as it gets
he wasnt a kitten when he arrived at his previous home, all torn up from being trapped in a snare which he by some divine intervention escaped , he isnt now but ... it doesnt take the kawai away, he's like a little war veteran really ... damaged by humans (who else ...)
Maybe ... ofcourse spoken as someone who would sooner sponsor money to the ALF than greenpeace, anyone who wants pets should be forbidden to start with kittens but if you cant love an adult animal you actually shouldnt have one at all ... if this one aint cute to you, you dont deserve a kitten either ...
and same for dogs btw even if no one here but the elders is a dog-person .... same thing goes
and you know how we are on human spawn .... if you want us sterilized thats fine ... how much do we get ? we'll have it done stat, lead by example ?
I WOULDNT WANNA LEAD THIS COUNTRY IF THE PAID ME TEN TIMES TOPMINISTER
id take the money and run to a place where their law cant follow most likely, BEM
... the antibiotics should last for 14 days, which is most important ofcourse ... we have a painkiller we can add if this wears out by tonight ...
im gonna try and minimize that but ofcourse not when he's visibly suffering, i will trust my cat-eye on this to read his body language and
I dont think we could want for a better outcome in this situation
thanks to cuz being right there, scoring an appointment and the good wizard of oz making time right away
i believe what he said was
"Actually instead of sitting here and talking for another 30 minutes when i can do it i might as well do it" (lol yes?) ..
then its done
RIGHT-o ....
The shaved patch is b/c they took his blood while sedated anyway for a full test which turned out to be actually quite good considering his age, past and ... well
generous size ....
euhmmm, ah its friday
i assume we all go
zuipen met de meisjes ?
GUD ! enjoy but plz dont make a ruckus in my street, its SO unbecoming and style-less ...
