Yikes, Andi! Glad you're all okay.

Spike's Bitches 49: As usual, I'm here to help you, and I... are you naked under there?
Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

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

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
There is something weird going on with one of Harvey's eyes. His 3rd eyelid is half-across the eye. Based on how he is acting - appetite is good, energy level damn good for a 20 year old cat with back and kidney problems, no discharge, no change in mobility - waiting until morning to get him seen is fine. But it freaks me out because it makes his one eye look they way they did in the dream the other day. I haven't mentioned that detail to Daniel because I don't want to worry him.
Note to self: Remember the message of the dream was, "it isn't time to give up yet."

P.S. I just checked a variety of sites with lists of "this is an emergency, yes call the on-call vet and make them get out of bed to meet you at the clinic now" symptoms, and this does not qualify as an emergency.

Herding cats for fun
If Harvey were my cat I'd assume it was a temporary case of sleepy eye and check it in the morning.
Hoping for good kitty karma for you.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
I know things that seem like no big deal in a younger cat can be more worrisome in an older kitty, and you wouldn't be concerned if you didn't love Harvey so much. But I also agree this is something that can wait until morning.

Lots of stress in the air. Not sure if this is cause of it or a focus for diffuse stress.. Anyway, thank you all for your encouragement.

Our wings are not tired.
I hope you and Harvey had restful nights, Andi.

Thanks, Laura. Harvey got a lot more sleep than I did. And he has an appointment at 11:30am today. Now I'm going to go back to bed for a bit.

Hugs. I hope the vet is reassuring.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
All good wishes for Harvey and you, Windsparrow.
