Allegro now
25-Jan-05
Allegro caught the cold. I had John separate the kitties today so he could get a full day’s rest without Alladin pouncing on him. I came home and he had… stuff (drool, snot, whatever) all down his front, poor baby.
We’d planned to go out for dinner, so we did. After we sat down, I asked John about taking Allegro to the vet tomorrow, realized I could still call the vet and make an appointment (it was 6:40, and they close at 7). Got them on the phone, explained the situation, and they agreed to let me pickup the antibiotics tonight. Allegro’s 13, so I knew we’d want to put him on them right away if the cold manifested as anything more than sneezing, and I guess the vet agreed. Yay!
So, I ditched John at the restaurant, hauled ass to the vet’s office, picked up the medicine, hauled ass back to the restaurant, ate dinner in record time, and went home. Gave Allegro the meds and promptly spilled some as I was trying to refill the dropper. Damn. I’m not sure if there’s going to be enough for his second dose in 3 days– I’ll do him in the morning and, if not, make a quick run to the vet’s for a refill.
Yes, I am the kind of crazy cat lady that vets would rather not see at 7:45 in the morning….
