We awakened this morning to Lucy Grace gracefully limping after jumping up on our bed...after mildly freaking out...that would be us...and a stressful trip to the vet...she has a very swollen arthritic knee...she is getting a cold laser treatment and I will pick her up soon...Den and I both have stress headaches and it is Lucy's spa day...she will get laser treatments three times a week for the next two weeks. I think cats age like gymnasts...joints hurt and suffer after all of the leaps they carelessly take in their youth...Lucy made leaps that we could not believe...and now it has taken its toll...my poor sweet elegant geriatric girl.
Reading this...chosen by me because of the cover and the 1930 ish London sort of story...and because for some odd reason it reminded me of Downton Abbey...
Some new books...
Happy Wednesday!
Aw, poor Lucy. I hope the treatments work well for her.
ReplyDeleteMe too!
DeleteI think maybe the breed is more susceptible to injury because with all of the cats I have had in my lifetime, and I have had dozens, none of them ever had injuries even when very old. I certainly hope she feels better soon. You all need to have a nice Gin & Tonic. It's only 10:10 here but it's late enough for you to enjoy one.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea!
DeletePoor Lucy, I hope the treatments help.
ReplyDeleteShe feels better already!
DeleteAge is he#* , whether you are human, cat, dog, whatever. I am glad they can give her some relief. Will they be putting her on something orally, now? Don't stress. That isn't good for anybody!
ReplyDeleteYes...I know...I try not to stress but...
DeleteGetting old sucks, for cats and for people....
ReplyDeleteI'm curious about The Pocket Wife....sounds intriguing....
Boy...that is so true...I guess achy joints hit us all...she is home from the dap and doing better...lol...
