The Hero and the Hospital

Today, Neville travelled back to the hospital, albeit briefly. He went only to receive an anti-biotic injection to combat the swelling on his lip. My lion handled the procedure well; he becomes much more upset about having to take medicine orally than he does about a journey to the hospital, similar to Sweetie, one of the Eastside Cats. The swelling is not bothering the Nevsky, but with his history of bad infections in the jaw or mouth, it’s best to tackle this one while it is small.

Once Nev returned home, he found a favourite spot on the bed and lie down. In a few minutes, he was purring. Though he was probably just pleased to be home again, it may be that he believes he’s defeated once again whatever nefarious purpose his human has in taking him to the House of Ill Stinks.

Who am I to crush his heroic day-dreams?

  4. I hope the injection works well on reducing the swelling. He looks quite relaxed after his visit to the vet.

  5. I sure do hope this medicine starts to work quickly and this gets over for Neville. It's no fun for the humans to go to the doctor and it's no fun for the pets to go to the doctor.
