clootie Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Morning all, very interesting about peeps Debs, I didn't know that ! I have to take Eric to the vet for 8.50am He's having the Poor little man's hungry and I can't give him his breakfast. Oh well, when he comes home with his lampshade on, I'll have a few treats waiting for him. I hope he'll be ok, I must confess to being a little anxious.

Space Chick Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Hope Eric will be OK Its hard when you have to take the little uns to the vets. It'll be for his own good in the long term. I never had Henry done, and there have been times when I wish I had eg. when he met his "girlfriend" Roxy the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel temptress Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chickvic Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Morning all Hope your Grandad is ok Debs and the op goes well! Awww poor Eric I hate the guilty looks you get when there is no food down I'm sure he'll be fine Cloots! I'm sending lots of get well vibes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Morning all. Interesting fact there Debs - I call the little ones The Peeps - mainly because that's how they sounded (going through the honking stage now). Hope little dawgy is soon snippered and home and recovering - he'll be fine. I think it is humans that seem to suffer more (harrrrr sweet revenge - compares very little with childbirth though!) Don't worry about your Grampsie - cataract ops are easy peasy. Mum's had both done (she gets sleep apnea and was worried during the op, lying on her back she would start spluttering) but she found it wasn't as bad as she thought - and her eyesight is really good now. The glaucoma lasering was a different story - she didn't like that much. She said after the cataracts - "everything is so bright" - and it's all done very quickly too. I drew a parrot on card and gave it to her when we went to pick her up - and a makeshift pirate hat. The nurses told me off - and then laughed!

clootie Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Eric deposited at the vet. I feel rotten. Dropped in to Tesco on the way home and stocked up on doggy treats - guilty conscience perhaps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chickvic Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Awww he'll be fine Clootie, I'm exactly the same. I've had 3 cats done (male so easier op) but I feel really guilty leaving them there and it's such a relief to go and fetch them. I really fussed over them when they got back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Space Chick Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Well I'm back from the hospital, op went well for Grandad, he's really chilled about it. I was a wreck this morning and he was fine I've got to take him back tomorrow now just to check everything is OK. Cloots - hope little Eric is OK, a cuddle and a few treats tonight and he'll be marvellous. Off to make Grandad an Apple Pie now as a treat Anyone fancy a slice? There's some homemade Vanilla ice-cream to go with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valkyrie Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Is he back yet?? Glad Grandad is fine. I remember my grandad was in Salisbury hospital for a week - and the glasses he had to wear - like bottle ends! Mum doesn't need specs at all - apart for her long sight occasionally and it's such a quick in and out session nowadays! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valkyrie Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Could you send your run too. I was just debating how I was going to get rid of a giant oak tree without the council noticing and giving me a hefty fine - just to make room! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheilaz Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 I expect it's been TLC for Eric since she collected him. Debs, I'm delighted that today went well for Grandad, that's marvellous. Mmm, I love apple pie, but with cream or custard (or both). Someone else can have my icecream. We're off to the Game Fair tomorrow, we go every year. Omlet have a stand there for the first time, will go and have a look. I hope all is well Clootie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
