Kitty Trouble

My kitty has swallowed a needle. He was throwing up all of yesterday, so I took him in today. They're doing surgery. I was sitting there, being ignorant, reading "The Hobbit" to him while we cuddled instead of taking him to the emergency vet.

I am an awful, awful mommy.


Edit: Baby is coming home tonight. Surgery went well. Doctor said I got him in really fast, which bodes very well.

In my struggles with getting LJ to let me post *grrr*, I forgot to say that your Tom is a cutey and a half! :)

He says thanks! (see icon)

He is currently a mewling, drugged, painful cutey. And I'm going to be $750 - 1000 poorer. But his surgery went well, and the needle is in a plastic bag (my mother insisted that I keep it as a trophy -- the one thousand dollar needle), so hopefully he'll be causing trouble again ASAP.

Poor baby! Give him a (gentle) pat for me and tell him I hope he feels better soon.

I'll do so when I give midnight meds!
