9.2 Kilos of Lovable Fluff
On the topic of that 9.2 kilo pound cat mentioned below…
Dan had the pleasure of taking her to the vet last week. Madeline continues to gain weight, was limping and lethargic, and had a lump near her spine. We’ve been dreading this trip…because we don’t want anything to be wrong with her (and by not going, surely that means nothing IS wrong…makes perfect sense, right?) and because, well, getting a cat to a vet without a car isn’t the easiest thing to do. We hate to ask for a ride, because ever since moving her across the Atlantic, this cat has a habit of wetting herself when she’s in her cage, and we don’t want to mess up anybody’s car.
Anyway, Dan loaded her into the cat carrier, bungee-corded her onto the dolly, and began the long walk on COBBLESTONE streets. I could still hear poor Madeline meowing when Dan was at the top of our hill.
Yes, she wet herself again. But, thankfully, all is OK. She’s just fat. Dan surmised from the vet’s and staff’s reaction that she is quite possibly the biggest cat the office staff has seen.
But we love Madeline dearly…especially her white, fluffy tummy.
P.S. 9.2 kilos is 20.25 pounds. When we left the States, she was 18.5 pounds...
