Dead Kitty Walking!

So while we were at fish camp, we nicknamed the Stanley the cat, dead kitty walking! It is kinda sad because when I went to see the cat today it was almost dead.

My morning started off pretty good. I woke up on time and got to work on time but I was really tired. I had had a bad night's sleep. I kept waking up all night about 8 times in 6 hours. I kept having this dream that Powers and Stout came by my apartment and asked me to go camping with them. So all of my dreams for the whole night were getting ready for the camping trip. It was a long night with no REM sleep.

But today was pretty cool because I was spending the morning in the walk-in clinic. I took physical assessments for a bunch of patients and got to assist on a couple of procedures. It was wicked cool. I am going back on Friday. The procedures part is not stuff that I need to learn but it is nice for a change.

When I got back to the pharmacy in it was pretty slow but Val made coffee and I was wicked excited. It was a nice pick me up but I still crashed and burned in the afternoon. I was exhausted. I almost fell asleep at dinner.

Then I went home and talked to Andria and called my mom. Both were very happy to talk to me. Then I had to go feed Dr. H's cats and Joey the gecko. When I walked into the house I found that the cat had not eaten its food and when I called it, it didn't come. So I went looking for it. I found it in the bathroom and it looked awful. I just picked it up and it was all skin and bones. I didnt know what to do. Laura came over and we called all of the doctors to see what we could do. I really was debating in my head as to whether to put the cat down with some drugs or to just let it die. I am against that for humans but that cat looked like it was in so much pain. I just dont know!

So when Laura came over we were on our way to get three bottles of wine for Bill, Dave, and Keri. So we decided to leave the cat and go get the wine and drop it off. We stopped at Dave and Bill's house. They live in the same house, there are two apartments. Neither of them were home so we just left them sitting there. Then we came back to the hospital to drop Keri's off becasue he was on call. He also offered to give me some fish which I was totally excited about.

I went back to Dr. Hyndman's house to see the cat and it was still alive. I decided to stay until Chris came home. I was about ready to leave at 11 when he walked in. I was exhausted but I didnt want to leave the cat alone. So Chris came home at 11 and I told him what was going on and then went home and went to bed!
