My poor baby.

Remember the injury on HeeChul's tail?

Apparently, it was nothing "simple".

Before i went to meet her appa in Korea, i thought it was all healed, since i could yank play with her tail without her screaming at me, so i left with a light heart and needn't worry much about her.

I was wrong it seemed.

The injury, somehow or rather, "came back" last night (reopen), with all the watery blood and pus oozing out, and it hurt her so much to the extend it was difficult for her to find a position to sleep properly last night (she used my bag on the floor and my room slippers as her pillow).


I brought her to her vet today, and long-story-cut-short, the doctor said although the wound has healed, its possible that inside it still has infection or some sort, and so to clean it, had to put her on a mild anesthetic (but it seemed full to me), so as to "cut" open the wound to clean the inside.

I have to leave her there for a few hours, and my, does it traumatize me (weird isn't it? For it to be traumatizing to me than her!).
The last time i did that (left her at the vet for spaying), she came home lecturing me to no ends, and is still very revengeful to me now for it (or so i feel - typically Hee-style). So i told the nurse to inform me as soon as possible, if possible before she even wakes up, so i could be there when she open her eyes.

I went to pick her up around 4pm, her eyes are open and she was half-conscious. The doctor said when he opened the wound, he could see dead tissues inside the wound or something. I have to bring her back next week to open the bandages.

When i got her home, i thought she was still sleeping and took her out of the bag so she could sleep comfortably on her pillow. However, she chose to wake up, and because the anesthetic was still effective, she cringes at every single sound, loud or soft, or at me touching her! You can see through her eyes she's not herself!

Another thing was, she has become a mabuk cat (Now i know how HeeChul is like when his full of soju)!
Her paws had become too weak (due to the anesthetic) to support herself, so technically, she was crawling commando style all over the study room. Stupid cat, so tired yet still crawled all over the place instead of resting!!
To make matter worst, the carpet actually helped her crawl forward better because its not slippery, but when she got to the marble floor, she was like "swimming" on the floor!

I know its really mean, but its really funny =P! Too bad i was too worried and was caring for care (and lazy and sleepy) to go get my camera to record this moment! I'll never forget that moment XD!!

Apart from that, she actually falls on her side or her back every so often because she couldn't balance herself! It was funny (*coughmeanommacough*) too, especially one moment when i was looking at her and she looked back and she just falls on her back XD!! Hahaha!!!


That said, it was heartbreaking to see her this way, because i couldn't let her out of the house, and she wanted to go out so much so its like... poor baby...

Can't wait for her to get better soon! Its so stressful really... i have to watch her as tired as she is, crawl all over the room refusing to rest and cringes whenever i tried to comfort her from sound... haih...


The next time that thousand-dollar cat comes, i'm going to bbq him!!

ps: Don't even remind me how much the bill costs (ㅠ.ㅠ)...
