Purrs, Grrrs and Gus

Graphic courtesy of KC of the Cat Blogosphere.

Ayla is finally home. It is unbelievable that she was improperly spayed - twice! Yesterday she was spayed for the 3rd time during a different procedure and sent home. Last night she was taken to an emergency vet bleeding badly. The Big Thing is understandably irate over nearly losing her - not to mention the expenses incurred. Evidently the emergency vet personnel have the bedside manner of Dr. Martin Ellingham, the outspokenly rude doctor from Dr. Martin, a British comedy Jan likes to watch. Such behavior is barely funny in a TV comedy..

Purrs and wags for Ayla to have a total and rapid healing. You can visit Ayla at Mark's Mews.

Many of you might have already seen this video but it's so funny, we decided to post it anyway. It was fun to watch it again and again. Gus reminds us of Buddy when he was a pup.Total determination!

We guess the weather must be sweltering where Gus lives, so who can blame him for wanting his pool indoors instead of outside.

Our giveaway will end at midnight tonight (Wednesday). Details are on our post Sam Broke his Biscuit.

  2. That is terrible about Ayla. How can this happen? Hopefully she's on the mend this time. Crossed Paws and lots of hugs heading her way.

  3. Poor Ayla, we've never even heard of this happening. We would sure do a lot of serious investigating and complaining and letter writing.

  10. We've been sending our purrs and purrayers to Ayla too. It's absurd, the kind of vet "care" she's had. Our mom would be through the roof were she in Mark's situation. We're glad she's home now, though, and hope she's spent a good night. (Mark too!)

    That video of Gus was great. Very clever and determined. LOL.

  11. I am so shocked to hear about Ayla, such a very different vet care experience from mine. In fact, my beans were not charged for my care as this was a 'learning experience' they explained. They only paid for the one night in emergency which was also very good. We are all purring and prarraying for Ayla, she and her bean have been through such a terrible experience.

    Thanks for your compliments about me, I love compliments!!

    I don't jump or do stairs yet, but all in good time. Thank you so much for all the purrs and good wishes, it worked for me!

    love,
    Cookie

  13. Ayla's story is one of the worst stories I have heard. Someone needs to bring that vet up before someone. Their is no excuse how that poor cat was treated.
    We had seen that video before and it is hysterical. What a smart dog Gus is. The mom was pretty funny herself not thinking Gus would really take the pool inside.
    Stay cool Jan.
