Zofia Goes to the Hospital

Zofia will be spayed today. Her second heat cycle arrived less than two weeks after the first, and lasted more than twice as long, so we were anxious to get her in before she experienced a third.


Because she would have to go to the hospital early - but later than I would go to work - it was decided to take her to another residence last evening, so that she could be transported directly by the people there, rather than having to collect me from work, go home, release little Miss Zed into their care, then go back to my job.



I anticipate no problems with the surgery, though you may want to direct some kind thoughts to the Cosy Apartment for my attempts to keep her still and inactive while she heals. She’s five months old, so I don’t think I will be having much success in that. I will isolate her in the library, which will displease her, as will keeping her from her pal, Hector, who was looking for her last night. I expect much pounding and scratching on closed doors.


But afterward, Zofia will feel better, the apartment will experience no more disruptions (of the reproductive kind), and she can return to her full-time job of being a kitten.

  3. I am sending love and healing thoughts for Miss Z as well. I can't wait to hear how she is afterward and I know she will be concerned about going somewhere else for the night but you must. I have been down that road as a shift rotation person. I know how you feel and you may worry about how she is adjusting to the little disruption. Well, I did...but every one is not as reactive as I am. :-) Hector will be anxious when she comes home and he mustn't play...BUT he will adjust after a day or so I feel certain.

  4. Who to feel sorrier for. Hector missing his play mate. Or Miss Zofia going under the knife, just like Dr. Bellen recently. Purring for her to not bother the stitches when she comes home and all will go to rights very soon.

  5. A mere hiccup on the road of life for Zofia, and Hec will forgive and forget soon too.
    However, the human will always remember...

  12. Best wishes and purrs for Miss Zofia and her surgery and healing. It was hard to keep Tommy away from Teaghan when she had hers. And we made the mistake of not keeping them separated enough and had interrupted healing. She looks so beautiful with her slim kitten beauty lying there in the library! Purrs, Tommy&Teaghan
