Notes from Under the Bed

I'm an Angel now

Mum thought she'd better let you know what has happened as I have been given Angel Wings by the sweet RT and his furmily.

I was diagnosed with diabetes earlier this year, but had been doing quite well with my twice daily insulin injections.

Then last Thursday (Anzac Day) I had a seizure and ending up spending the night at the emergency vet. My usually vet checked me on Friday, and everything seemed fine.

My blood glucose levels were good on Friday and Saturday. Then late Saturday night I had another seizure - I woke Mum, the dogs and the other cats up. I tried attacking Mum but she eventually got me wrapped in a towel to try and calm me and give me maple syrup. It didn't do any good. I went to the Bridge - less than half an hour after I woke everyone.

Mum is still in a state of shock. She and Dad took me to Pets in Peace to be cremated this morning, and I will be home on Friday.

The life and times of me, Diva Schooby

I am no longer spending all my days in the bedroom. I have taken over a cat bed in the window of the rumpus room where I spend most of the day watching the world go by.

And the other day, Mum saw me walking in from the verandah, so she is wondering how far I move around the house when she is not here. Well, I'm not telling.

The little boys have been mean and scratched my nose, but I still think I look like a Diva in my beautiful mauve Calvin Collar. It even has a mauve kitty cat on it.

I've also taken to sleeping in the bed with Mum at night. The dogs don't bother me, but Smokey makes me nervous. Mum thinks he is responsible for the nose scratches. But twice now, I have let him curl up between me and Mum. I'm a lady even if he is no gentleman.

Well, off to remind Mum it is past our tea time. She gets slack when she is on holidays.

Purrs to all, Schooby the Diva

I don't believe it

Diary of the Day yesterday, and Daily Diary Pick today.

Mum says I should pick the numbers for the next Lotto entry MOL.

Methinks the Random Diary Picker Generator is not so random.

Either that, or it is a cunning ploy to get us to write more diary entries.

Anyway - it is Sunday and teatime here - gotta go eat.
