YAY!! Things are on the mend. This is great news. I absolutely love the rocking story - what a bond between the two of you. The photos are wonderful. I am so happy that you can bring him home tomorrow. We will be thinking of you tonight.
The urine sample story is priceless... and so very Mannie too. I did have to smile after reading that, as we went though the same thing on Tuesday. Mannie would not give them a sample, no way no how. he's a big kitty, and well it is difficult to find his bladder... though they did try. So what does he do? Pees all over the floor. His sample, his terms. Funny thing was the vet says "pee! I'll take it!" and grabs a syringe.... not the most sterile, but good enough for the purpose at the time. You must tell Tarragon that he has a comrade in arms...
Tarragon - DUDE! You rock! heeheehee on the pee sample - dude that is the only way! I did the same ting... Awesome! Good move too on the fuds! Make them get you the good stuff. Me and the KTSS krew are coming to see you - so watch for us... we are the big band of kitties carrying pots full of chicken soup. hey - we got a space reserved for you at Attie's party! You don't have to do nuthin' - I will picks you up ~~ Mannie
