Victor told me not to let Mom see me squint. He didn't mention Dad. Instead of spending Sunday relaxing at home, I was shoved into Victor's carrier and went to the s-l-o-w vet for HOURS.* I told Mom I was OK and wouldn't rub anymore, but no one would listen.
They did just awful things to my itchy eye and then dressed me in a HUGE clown collar! I couldn't even walk in it, so I took it off. Mom put it back on, but I just slipped out of it again. I tried to get on their computer to blog, but they took me away AGAIN and when they brought me back to Mom, I had this little collar. This collar I could tolerate. I could still see and eat and drink and rub my eyes... I shouldn't have let her see me rub my eyes.
This is the new collar Mom got me. I can't rub my eyes. I can't do much of anything with this on! I'm so unhappy! It scrunches my ears and whiskers. It bumps into things. I keep backing away, but it stays on. Victor never had one of these for his eye infections. They said I rubbed too hard and made a teeny, tiny owie on my eye. Please take this off? I'll be good!
* Emergency vet. For some reason, they take forever!
Please send purrs, purrayers and healing mojo to Auntie Deb. She needs it even more than I do. Do you think they'll make her wear an e-collar after this?
Poor little Nina--I hope your eye gets better soon!

I know you hate that collar, but your eye will get better faster if you keep it on so you won't be able to rub it. Be a tough little kitty and soon you'll be all better! Maybe just try sleeping since you can't really do much else with that thing on.
ReplyDeleteOh Nina dear, we feel bad for you. Well, at least it isn't as bad as some of our friends who wore a paper plate around their heads. At least your collar is fancy!
ReplyDeleteOh, I am sorry you have a hurty eye! I hope it gets better soon.
ReplyDeleteSadly you get used to the collar. It will go away soon as long as your eye heals!

ReplyDeletewe hope your eye gets better soon and you can take off the clown collar.
ReplyDeleteNow you would think with it being an emergency vet that they would hurry more. I'm so sorry to see you squinting. Hopefully it's just some irritation and you'll be alright soon.

We hope your eye feels better fast, Nina. That collar looks no fun. The emergency vet is always s-l-o-w. I guess they need to go slower if it's an emergency than if you're just getting regular stabs. Or maybe it's a rule.
ReplyDeletePurrrrrrrrrrs!
