Coco update
Dec. 10th, 2010 12:53 amWe took Coco in Saturday for shots but they asked if we wanted to leave her to be spayed on Sunday. They called Sunday and said she was running a fever and they would start antibiotics. Sunday night they called and asked if they could do surgery cause her fever was down. We called Monday and they said she was okay but they wanted Dr. K to look at her before they released her and that they'd given her a box. I didn't talk to them so this was through Mom and she couldn't tell me what that meant so I was concerned. Then on Tuesday they called and said to come get her, that she had done very well. Her uterus was stretched so she has already had kittens! I guess that puts her at 8 to 9 months old. Her nipples don't look like they've been nursed on but she's not lactating. So, maybe she aborted her babies due to lack of food, or she had them but they weren't viable. Abby's story again. Apparently we're operating a halfway house 'for teenage hookers' as a friend at work summarized.
Coco is bouncy and purry, very affectionate and playful. She runs towards me when I enter the bedroom and loves her ears rubbed. I need to buy her some more toys for tomorrow. After a 10-15 minute luvtime, she starts to get bite-y and wants to play rough. She's probably bored. Abby spends a lot of time hunched outside her door. I think I'll make a toy that will fit under the door and they can both pull at it, maybe get them playing together before they are allowed to interact. Last night I let Buddy in and while he surveyed, Abby peeked into the room. Coco got a little insecure and ducked under the bed. So, it's coming along. I swear her coloring is a little different each day. The tortie is really coming out on her fur. I'll be very surprised to see what she finally looks like.
Brindle new place to sleep is either the computer chair or the computer thus I was not able to play on the net yesterday or this morning. :( I'm currently able to see about the top 4 inches of screen in between the times when he sits up and grooms then I can't see anything. He's giving me the evil eye now. :(
