After my operation the vet said I shouldn’t go up or down stairs for a few weeks to let my incision heal. For several days I had no trouble following these instructions. But our house has three floors and Cat-Mommy and Cat-Daddy go upstairs and downstairs frequently. Today they left the door to my room open and, noticing I was alone, I went downstairs to join them. But they are so active! Up- and down-stairs we went all evening. By the time the day was done I was quite exhausted. Whew!

Needless to say there was no purring in the cat-pile as we slept…just the sound of me snoring away. I was so tired Cat-Daddy thought about taking me (gasp) to the vet! Fortunately cooler heads prevailed and I availed myself of the antidote of sleep. Still, one can see from the picture above how tired I was. I slept on the floor with my incision clearly showing!
