stitches??? i got no stinkin' stitches!

I finally got through to the vet who told me to come at 11:45. Biggie has developed a real hate hate relationship with his carrier. I put his toy in there and treats and he just looked at me like "you're fucking kidding me, right?"

But, we got there. I'm on the south edge of downtown and the vet's is just on the other side of the center of the city. But, there was not a soul on the road. It was freaky.

Got there and they took him in. The Tech said the vet would check him over and either take out the stitches or let me know when to come back. She came back in about 5 mins and said everything looked great and the stitches were out. And they didn't even charge me anything!

Before leaving home, I ordered poke to go from my favorite poke place which is very near the vet's. Very near, but, as it turns out, not at all easy to get to. That section of town is a morass of you-can't-get-there. The streets that aren't closed are one way - the wrong way. At least this time it was daylight and I wasn't freaked by impending surgery. But, still. Ugh.

The poke was totally worth it, though. I pigged out and there's still enough left for dinner.

It's still very chilly in here - so I have a hot mug of coffee. And Biggie's outside in his tree. The carrier is back in the closet. For good, I hope.

Glad those stitches are out!

I can understand his dislike of the carrier -- it means The Vet and God only knows what might happen there!

Now ... to keep all foreign food substances from him. 🙄

that's the goal... fingers are crossed.

Glad to hear that Biggies really on the mend. I finished "In the Woods but thought they would have found the two kids when digging up for the motorway.. but then that thing popped up. The stick man with the antlers. He was a monster somewhere in the monster archive..., do you believe it was he who took those two kids.. or that's what they are trying to make us think?.. I've started on her next book "The likeness" did you think it was good? Rather interesting so far..

ISn't poke fish? Ad if so, did Biggie ask for some?

lol When we had cats I was very familiar with the 'you're fucking kidding me, right?' look. So happy that he was able to have his stitches out and can be back on his roost!

The King is back on the Throne! It was a short-lived coup.
