Mum's so pleased to have me back home from the Hospital. I did have two teeth out and Terry, my lovely Vet, said I had a slight reaction from the anaesethetic and could stay overnight in the hospital if mum wanted me to. He agreed with mum though that she thought I'd be better recovering at home as I'm very frightened even when I just visit the vet for a health check.
When mum took me out of my carrier I was still a bit groggy and even now (after six hours) I don't want anything to eat but I've had a good drink from my water fountain.
I have a 7-day course of Antirobe antibiotics to take and have to go back on Friday for a check up - which mum is dreading! I just didn't want to go in my carrier this morning and clung to mum's shoulder and scratched her quite badly 'cos I was so frightened.
My friends have been just wonderful and I'm sure all the purring has helped me through this.
Thankyou to Hazel Lucy for putting me on the "Get Well purr list".
Thankyou to all my furriends for all their lovely comments to my diary entry and for all the love and purrs.
Thankyou to lil' Muppet, Casey, Miss Mittens, Wally, Sir Alfie and Teddy and Tallulah & family for the Power of the Paw rosettes.
Thankyou to Buddie for the blue healing rosette from "Buddie's toofie well wishers GANG".
I'm sure I'll feel better in the morning!
Love & purrs
Alfie & mum

UPDATE 05 November
----------------------------
Alfie was not at all well last night and had his mouth half open as if it hurt him to close it. I stayed up with him until 3.00 a.m. as he was very restless and just wouldn't settle down and then we went to bed. He finally settled on my bed and slept pressed up against me for the rest of the night.
Thankfully, he's much better this morning and ate a teaspoon of Tuna Imperial (one of those expensive tiny tins) with his antibiotic in and he's drinking well. He's not keeping his mouth open quite as much now!
He's slept most of the day in a hooded cat bed in the spare room where it's quiet. If I feel he needs to go back to the vets tomorrow for a check-up I'll take him, but providing he eats tonight (with his antibiotic in) and he's a little brighter, I'll leave him be.
Alfie is so frightened when he goes to the vets that I feel I'll further traumatise him and if possible he's better at home, providing that I can make sure he has his medication.
Thankyou all his furriends for the continuing purrs and reassuring comments.
Thankyou Chef Rooster & family and Orkney and the girls for the lovely red hearts. Thankyou to Oliver and Dewey for the power of the paw rosie. We appreciate them all so much.
I miss you so much my sweet Albie but know you're my Guardian Angel and are looking after me!
Have fun with the angels Albie. Your angel brofur Poppet is arranging an Anniversary Party for you and all your furriends. Ooops!! It was supposed to be a secret!
