The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Lee, if I had the car I'd be down there in a flash. Mmmmmmm, brownies.

I could meet you in Millbrae.

Oh Tommy, what a terrible position to be in.

My one thought is the vet who spoke with you about his declining tempertature, etc. I know you can't speak with anyone at the specialty clinic, but is there any way you could speak with her? You seem to trust her judgment.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

I could meet you in Millbrae.

But you have no infant seat in your car, alas.

I love her so much at this adorable size, but things are going to be rather more flexible when she's all walky and talky and big enough to only need a nice easily portable booster seat.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

So I called again - Senor has shown no improvement; his prognosis is "poor." I didn't get a chance to talk to the vet herself. They suggest I come in and talk to her and see Senor.

She's done for the day at 4:00, so I'm heading off to the vet hospital in a few....

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Happy Birthday, Sean!

I don't know what I would do were I in your shoes, tommyrot. Does Senor Sock seem to be suffering, now? Would he mind being at a strange vets getting tests done?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Sean, Happy Birthday!

Scarlett and Rhett are adorable!

They're my parent's puppies. They're very sweet.

So what the veterinary hospital sometimes does is transfer a pet to one of the specialty clinic's emergency facilities (before the clinic's regular facilities are open) and then when the clinic opens (say, tomorrow morning) they are transfered to their regular facilities and receive immediate treatment. So one problem for me is I wouldn't even be able to talk to anyone at one of these clinics (at least, I don't think so) before transferring him there.

Tommyrot, if the specialty clinic has emergency facilities there should be someone you can talk to even if it isn't the person who will end up treating Senor Sock. Did the emergency vet recommend a particular clinic? There might be a vet tech on duty who can at least tell you what the process will be. I'm hoping for the best for both of you.
