Sylvester Is In The Hospital

[SomeJackleg]

Sylvester scared the poop out of me this morning, and made my heart stand still. He also made a liar out of me.

I always tell my crits that they had better behave themselves, and if they got into trouble, I was going to bury them in the back forty, because there was no way I was going to spend my hard earned coin on taking then to the vet, because they decided to be stupid.

Well when Sylvester started making the most God awful noise I have ever heard in my life, I could not get him to the vet fast enough. Sylvester is the quiet one, but his growlish screams put my loud mouth Enoch to shame.

Crazy thing was that the Huskies would have a melt down every time he would do that growling scream thing. I tried to keep them away, but all four Huskies had to be around him, licking him, and whining. Enoch look scared, but he tried to comfort him too.

I rushed him to the vet, and found out he had a urinary blockage. I just got a call from the vet telling me he was doing fine. He was awake from the anesthesia, and he will leave the catheter in until morning. He will see how well he does urinating on his own, and if he does well he can come home Saturday.

The house is so quiet and so still. The Huskies and Enoch are so depressed. I can't wait to see what they are going to do when he comes home on Saturday.

Right now Sylvester is still groggy so he won't really realize he is in strange country until tomorrow.

So much for the freeze dried salmon treats. Now I am afraid to even give them to the dogs.

The cats and the dogs love them, but I think they may be just too much of a good thing.

your not a liar, folks love their animals, their family and you will do anything you can do and or afford for them. there's been a time or two that i had to let a couple go cause i couldn't afford the treatment they recommended, and then couldn't say if they make it or not. it a tough thing to do. i also have one i sometimes wish i would have let go the crying little shit. he's was roamer, would go out in the mornings and stay gone for a day or two. one morning i found him in the back yard gut shot and vet said he may or not make it. spent all my mad money i had rat holed. now he's a house and tether cat, and he whines 16 hours out of 24 every day inside or out. when in he whines to get out after the yard cats,  when he's out he whines cause they won't won't have anything to do with him. male or females. both try every now and then, they nuzzle with him and he nuzzles back for a minute or so then he either turns into horn cat or big bad yellow tom. then that's it for a day or so. then they try again and the stupid cat does the same again.
