Kilt the thread? Manure carts aren't good conversation?

They make one with two wheels side-by-side. I don't think that one comes with a brake yet, but it does solve the stability issue.

If I'm lucky, even if it is cancerous (admittedly, it sounds like it was), they got most of it...and it will take a long time to come back.

She's home now, but still pretty groggy. Trying to eat a little.

Do you still have the tires? Seems to me that we could put them back on and inject some hard foam and get rid of the flat problem. Would probably roll a little better.

Heh...my dog feels the same way about catbox crunchies.

Grrr...I THOUGHT Cleo was finally with it enough to be out of the crate, but she was still wobbly. They originally told me she'd probably be more or less OK in an hour or so...but that was hours ago. And now she's crying because I put her back in, but I don't know what else to do! She was trying to get her sore self up onto the desk, when she a) shouldn't really be jumping, and b) is basically drunk and would have fallen off even if she DID get up.

I hope she doesn't cry all night...but I think I may have to keep her somewhat restrained. Gonna be a long one, I'm afraid.

tubes? Wow...

Seems to me that some kind of solid tire would be better.

Be back in a bit.

A good percentage of cats have a thing about anethesia not wearing off for a day or two. My kitty number seven was that way.... he'd stay drunk for a couple days.

Hard to say what the best thing is..... if you put her on the couch might she just crash there?

You are right, it prolly would be better, but it really works pretty well as-is! - I am used to it and don't notice it being harder.

Do they make a little kitty straight-jacket? Hmmmm... four legs that all tie in the back. Methinks there's a buck to be made here...

She didn't wanna stay on the couch, though it was a good idea. If she'd stay there, that'd be a good place, though I'm nervous about her getting up and down. But the crate isn't working. She's awake enough now to be panicky about it. Sigh. We'll see how this goes.

I'm mostly worried because she still wants to get up fairly high, but is wobbly enough that she's bound to fall, and fall in a heap since her legs are shaky.

*fret*
