Taking care of Muffin...
Our cat, Muffin, arrived back home this morning after her surgery yesterday. We had her front claws removed since she's going to be an indoor cat. We also had her spayed, something we agreed to do when we adopted her from the SPCA.
Today she's just kinda 'out of it', you know, just laying around, napping, licking her paws & tummy & just not her ol' fun-loving self. I feel kinda sad for her, in a way... We have to take her back to the vets in a week to have the stitches removed & I"m already freaking out! It kinda reminds me of my last surgery. I don't know what it is about me but I dreaded getting the stitches out more than anything else. I was terrified...! and that's putting it mildly!!!
I'm sure Muffin doesn't have a clue what's next...& she probably isn't a bit worried. She has us, her family, to take care of her & I can tell that she really trusts us. You sure can learn alot about life from watching pets.
