Happy birthday to Mr Penny and I hope you all managed a celebratory lunch for him in the end.
It's been wet and dark here for most of the day but is now drying up. Still feels very heavy and muggy, though. We don't care! Not today, anyway! The vets just called to say LK is conscious, eating and generally recovering well and I can go and bring her home at 6:30 this evening. We thought initially that she'd have to stay in overnight because they started the procedure very late, about 3pm, even though we took her in at 8:30 this morning.
Our solicitor also rang to let us know that contracts have now been exchanged on the house. Yeeeee -hah!!
We celebrated both bits of news with a big slice of carrot cake
Poor little Dolly. What a prospect - a sore mouth or being made ill by anaesthetic. I once had a bad reaction and it was scary but many years ago and drugs and techniques have improved enormously since then. These little animals seem so frail and vulnerable, though. Gentle doggy hugs from here.
