Fiona is definitely altered now. Instead of hissing, spitting and swearing at my ancestors, she is acting very much like a kitten in heat. When I go in to see how she is doing, she raises her rump high in the air ducks her head down and begs to be petted a loved. She was spayed years ago so this behavior is a bit puzzling- unless it is the pain causing her to do this?
I took her trimline collar off this morning and she ate and drank and then I brushed her to try to get her calm. She kept wanting to duck back into her tent, but I persisted. I didn’t want her to think that only bad stuff (putting the collar back on- giving her meds etc..) happen to her outside the tent.
They gave me some pain meds for her V.A. L. Syrup and Buphoperine which she hates. But there is a sedative in it and she should sleep. Poor kitty, I hope when she finally gets all those drugs out of her system she will be back to the Fiona I know. I am almost sorry now that I put her through all of this. 🙁
She won’t come out of her tent I made her, I think lights really hurt her eyes so I changed the wattage to a lower setting and will use nightlights later. I have to work today, this is my only shift this pay period, so at least I will be home with her to watch her the rest of the week. Mike can’t climb the stairs anymore so she will be on her own till later tonight.
