So some context, I got a fairly old Lil eco terrorist kitty cat that is equal measures spoiled menace to society, and the pride and joy of my life. This cat has been my sweet precious demon shit for 14 years, and in spite of that age, she still moves and yells like she's 2 years old all over again. I had spent much of the summer watching her refuse to eat the dry food I normally leave out and scream for wet food exclusively. Initially I thought this was her being a picky little shit, which was incredibly warranted. However, when she chose starving over just eating dry food, I figured something must be wrong
Sure enough the vet confirmed that she had multiple issue teeth that were inflamed and causing her great pain. She's been on multiple medications for the last two weeks, which has made her saltier than the piss crack of a disheveled irish man living off the shores of giants causeway. Tomorrow morning is her surgery date where they'll try and salvage as many teeth as they can for her, but they're going to just have to see what they can salvage. I'll admit I'm probably more nervous for her than I need to be, but she caught me off guard today.
She didn't fight any of her medications today. Opposite actually. She came to me when it was time, and even kept her mouth open for some of it which was an odd level of compliance from her. Now she's decided to jump under the covers and sleep on my chest out of nowhere. This isn't typically odd for her, but during the summer she never cuddles, simply because it is 110+ degrees here and like hell if I'm letting another man fix something in my fucking house!! (I'll fix the AC when I'm bothered by the heat). So she's giving me very sentimental vibes right now, making me think she has a better understanding of what's happening tomorrow than I realize.
To be clear, im not asking for anything. The surgery is paid for, I absolutely do not need the support, though the kind intent is of course appreciated. I just felt like sharing this moment with my baby terrorist because she's got me feeling especially emotional right now.
