He's stretched out on a towel on the bed with me right now, purring his head off.
Aw, yay!

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

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

Kitty om! (and the Library of Congress tells me that there is a hypothesis out there that purring helps healing)

Poor Seamus. He's trying to scratch the bedroom door down to get in here. He doesn't understand that his big brother does not need bratty kitten attention right now.

From a short Scientific American piece:
Scientists have demonstrated that cats produce the purr through intermittent signaling of the laryngeal and diaphragmatic muscles. Cats purr during both inhalation and exhalation with a consistent pattern and frequency between 25 and 150 Hertz. Various investigators have shown that sound frequencies in this range can improve bone density and promote healing.

Well I can see why they wanted me to come get him. He's obviously happier here than he was there. I wish he didn't have to wear the plastic lampshade, though. He's so clearly annoyed by it.

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

Yay for Byron being home! Quick-healing vibes, kitty!

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I'm so glad Byron is home and purring

Wow, those pain meds are powerful. I gave him his first dose, and within 15 minutes he walk/hopped determinedly across the floor, into the kitchen, and over to his food bowl. He ate! I can't believe how well he's getting around already. He's not real thrilled about his crate (I had to grab him before he scooted under the bed), but honestly, the collar seems to be getting in his way more than the missing leg. He even just got in the litter box in his crate and peed!
I am really excited about gross things right now, sorry.
