I don't know where we're going, but we know where we are? (Part whatever)

She definitely wasn't stressed, the vet was fabulous fussing over her like a queen.
I don't remember her being like this before but maybe I didn't pay heed. I only noticed dopiness after her neutering which was expected really.

Ring the vet if you’re worried. I don’t think my cat gets dopey afypter her annual shots, although she does after her worming tablet for some reason.

She was wormed and flead today too. A full MOT so to speak.
I've read online that they can be lethargic for 24 hours after and to ring vet if it doesn't pass then so ill see how she is in the morning.
She did eat OK but she's just conked on the sofa now like she's hungover.

He seems ok. I never got talking to a Doctir despite repeated requests over the past few days, so dont really know what they have concluded. They've made some errors with his prescription, though, in one case potentially very serious, so will have fun tomorrow trying to get that resolved. I'm particularly angry that they have been giving him a DOUBLE dose of his night time sedation in the middle of the day! Apparently, that's the time they dispense that kind of medication on the ward! Even if they only need it at night. And the dose is an error that has been carried forward into his new script. I will be making an official complaint.

Jeez Sardi, infuriating, I'm giving you boobly hugs for the night.

Not a great hugger Sardi but I'm fantastic on vibes, so sending lots of good ones your way. And Grumpy's.

Couchside. Good-tired because latest mad health kick has been launched. Countdown to some kind of more fun-er real-er life and summer has started, so, proper clothes, updated outlook, and more music on the cards. As are my new super-unnecessary brown suede cowboy-ish boots, eta 2 more days. Be great for all those imagined outdoor lunches in the sun :pac:

Also trying to laugh at/be more empathetic towards some of the short tempered crazy going round. There's also a lot of cool: my local park has a pretty senior demographic, I love how the older and wiser are better at just chilling and not taking sh*t personally. There's an old dude there, gotta be 80 at least, and we have the best chats every time I seem him and his gorgeous black spaniel. They sit on / beside a bench and just smile and chat and literally make everyone they interact with feel better.

I randomly found a picture of myself on Boards years back at a show. It's a bit jarring knowing someone picked you as the subject out of a crowd.

Lads, I know a lot of you are animal lovers.. I brought my cat for her annual jabs today. She's very dopey since, no energy, just tends to close her eyes.
I can't remember this happening before, apart from after being brought home after neutering.
Anyone see this before?

Yes, happened to our cat last year. Back to vet next day and he said there had been a few cats react the same way to this batch of shots. He gave him a shot of something to make him better and put a note on his record not to have this particular one again.

Happy Friday!!!

Afternoon all. My partner was taken by ambulance into A&E at 3am this morning as he had chest pains, was shivering in the bed, feeling very weak and dizzy. His temperature was through the roof and his heart rate was spinning.

He’d been feeling unwell since Tues evening - but really seemed to worsen last night. We decided to take no chances. Obviously he’s in the best place right now and is having a battery of tests done, I have been in touch by phone (I can’t be with him unfortunately due to restrictions).

Here on my own and I just cannot focus on work things at all. Thankfully no Zoom lectures to give today.

Mam of 4

Oh Geez Jupiterkid, such a frightening and worrying time for you both . Just try focus on the fact that he's in the best place and getting the best treatment to figure out what's going on . Hugs to you , look after yourself.

I hope your OH gets better and it is nothing serious. How hard it must be for you to not be at his side, so I will say a prayer for you both.

Oh my Jupiter, I hope he will be ok. Better to be in hospital and be ok, then to be at home and need assistance.

I saw an ambulance on my way home from work last night, on Blackhorse Ave, I was thinking about whoever it was for. hate seeing ambulances late at night like that Fingers crossed

The Inbetween is mine

Sorry to hear that Jupiter... hopefully it's nothing too serious and he gets out in a day or so

Thinking of you and Mr. Kid, Jupiter. I know how tough it is to not be by his side now.

Jupiter, thinking of you both.. Hopefully it's straightforward and he's home to you soon..

Sending best wishes to you and your OH Jupiter.

In less important news, we got an email from Ryanair today. We had a trip booked this time last year. As everything came to a standstill we opted for a voucher instead of a refund. The voucher was valid until the end of this month. The email confirmed that the voucher was being extended until the end of Feb '22 or we can still opt for a full refund. Great guns from Ryanair.

Thinking of you JK and your partner. Hope all goes well with the tests.

So MrG, of all the places where Ryanair fly, where do you plan to go? (not when :))

Munich and then Marrakesh.

JupiterKid

Ah thanks guys for all the lovely words of support. Yiz are a sound bunch!

So...OH is now just back home. I collected him from the Mater. Covid tests showed negative, but the doctors believe it was some sort of viral infection/fever. OH had a whole battery of tests done overnight and initial results - i.e. heart, lungs, etc are all good.

Hopefully they will get to the bottom of what made him so very ill yesterday.

Gremlinertia

Jupiter, delighted he's home, hope recovery is speedy

Great news Jupiterkid, glad he's home

I'll give ye a laugh , I bought a Dolce Gusto machine today (I was calling it a Tassimo lol!) so now I'm coffeed out after trying the various pods to see which I liked best :pac:

Sardonicat

Delighted to hear your good news, Jupiter, you must both be so relieved. Have a lovely, cosy evening together for yourselves.

Grumpy back to nearly normal, delighted to be home. The extra sedation is slowly wearing off, so while it's good he's more alert it also means he'll be getting his moan on soon. At least that means he's ok, I suppose!

Ha! And I hate instant. So a personal espresso machine would probably shoot me down in short order, too. Plus, I like to get my java fix made by some nice college student at a local coffeehouse. My one vice. With atmosphere and new folks to meet (after COVID).
