Cat Emergency

So I was just sitting at my desk, minding my own business, when I hear a scuffling in the back yard. I look out the window to see my small cat hanging from the fence by one of her back legs. My large cat is sitting on the ground looking up at her.

I had seen them earlier, playing follow the leader across the top of the fences, and I did think to myself that I hope she realises that he is quite small and might not be able to do all that the big cat does.  Clearly she did not realise this.

Anyway, I race downstairs and run to her, and at the same time my neighbour from the other side also reaches her and together we pry her loose from the fence.

As she is clearly in pain and not able to walk, I race off to the vet. They don't think anything is broken but as she was hissing and biting so much it was hard to examine her. So they have dosed her up with painkillers and will look at her in an hour to see if they can find anything then.

Lord all mighty I pick stupid animals. Stupid, expensive animals. Stupid, expensive animals who I love dearly and therefore continue to spend money on them even though all the evidence says that they are clearly faulty.

Sigh.
