Little Chi'ik's surgery day!


Today is the day Chi'ik gets neutered by the good Dr. Jorge.
Try getting a cat into a box who really doesn't want to be there, past a dog who just KNOWS there is a cat in that box......we gave it up and used a beach bag until we got to the car. Then his little head popped out and he was actually very cool in the car - didn't mind the engine or the short drive of a few blocks at all.



At Dr. Jorge's, I took him in at 10:30 am and came back at 5:30 pm to pick him up. It was a rainy, long day, missing my little buddy and wondering how he was doing.








"Mama, he hurt me down there......!" Poor little muffin was very woozy, had a purple but from the antiseptic, and staggered around the house following me everywhere. So I cancelled my plans to go listen to music and meet friends for green beer, and just cuddled up with the baby.




This is where he spent the whole night, mostly sleeping. He had not had any food or water since midnight, so he did stagger over to his bowl and his litter box on occasion, but basically was asleep on my chest all evening and night. He goes back to Dr. Jorge to get his first shots, and then 2 weeks later for the next set, when he will get his certificate that will allow him to be under my seat on Alaska Air on his way to Canada on April 30!
