Continuing the kitty~ma for Arthur. If you find treatment in my area we always have room for a guest kitty and parent(s).

Nice doctor, Teppy! I like when they recognize that some patients actually know themselves pretty well.

Yay Awesome Doctor.

So I've developed a congested cough and it feels kind of tight when I breathe. I went to cvs and the wait was about 2 1/2 hoirs. The other urgent care is closed today.

I forgot my phone and didn't think...I'll leave my number and come back. I just went home. I'm going to maybe take a nap and figure out if I really need to go or if I should just go to work for at least part of the morning tomorrow.

I have a bacterial infection. The cvs minute clinic nurse practitioner advised I stay home another day and if I'm not feeling better in a week go to my real doctor.

I don't want to call out but I also want to go to bed just from going to the minute clinic and getting my scripts filled.

My cat had a bacterial infection and lost all of her neckfur and looked like an angry bobblehead fur a month.

Call in and halfway through your explanation, start sobbing "...and...and...I don't want to lose my neck fur!"

I guarantee they will be A-OK about you truly needing to not come in.

Also, there needs to be some kind of vetted UberEats type of service for illness. It's exhausting enough to drag yourself to the doctor, let alone go to the drugstore and wait for Rx and grab some sick food and drink. I remember being single and literally laying on the floor of CVS waiting for a bronchitis med to be filled.

I picked up zaxby on the way home. A salad so it was kind of healthy.

I decided for my mental health to attempt work. The worst that happens is I feel like crap and have to go home early.

Plus E will be over tomorrow to stay because he'll be back from his trip to Florida and he'll be hyper so I won't get much rest anyway

Have you ever had a night where you just don't want to fall asleep. I need to call the vet tomorrow and unless she had a bright idea, we may be saying goodbye to Miss Kitty. And I'm not ready. But she is struggling so much.

it's a hard decision to make, Suzi. But if Miss Kitty is struggling and medications are giving little relief, then it's not the wrong thing to do to let her go.

askye, I hope your decision to work brings you peace of mind so you can relax and rest fully when you can get some rest.

Suzi, that decision, even if plainly the right one, is never the easy one. I hope you can sleep.

I'm sorry, Suzi. It is the worst decision even when you know it is time.
