Sorry. I interpreted you to mean she was hesitant to go to the vet. I know diddly about cat illnesses, but it does sound like the best next step for a frail anorexic elderly cat dragging a limb.
Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[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.
Well, she is hesitant, but mainly because she doesn't have any money. She'll do what's right. I guess I wasn't clear.
sigh next to last night here amd internet is down hoping it will be back in morm. kindle not good for browsing
Oh Zen, with a 17 year old cat, that could be a lot of different things, but none of the scenarios ends well. It sounds like he's in pain. I just went through this so I know how hard it is, but it sounds like it's his time. If she doesn't have a lot of money, a kind vet will skip the tests if he thinks they won't change the final decision.
Zen, I think she needs to take the kitty in.
Nora, I haven't read the full description. I will this weekend.
It may be just me and one crew member today. A crew member just texted in that he couldn't sleep last night - I suspect that he was up reading. Which I understand, but damn. You know two people are out sick and you know how much we need to do today, and it's a short day, and you can't suck it up and make it through? WTF.
My day is not starting well. Om...
Question is... do I call him on it? And if he cops to it, do I write him up or otherwise chastise him?
I never knew you could call in tired.
ETA: I would think that alone would be worth calling him on.
I never knew you could call in tired.
Right?
That would make my head explode. Can you imagine the hundreds or thousands of times that those of us with insomnia issues, or kids, or a good novel at hand have crawled our butts into work on little to no sleep? Suck it up, dude.
A while ago I saw a T-shirt that had on it "I was out of sick days so I called in dead".
