A trip to the vet with Totty

Totty has been holding down her right ear and so I thought she had an ear infection and booked an appointment for the vet this afternoon.

I took her for a walk and then I went off to my class followed by coffee and a trip to the supermarket.

I got home and showered and as Heather and Jon were going to the rugby tonight I was just about to prepare cooked lunch for them when Heather called to say it didn't start till 8.00 so they would have dinner before they went and so just a normal sandwich lunch.

After lunch I prepared my jokes for my tail twister bit at Lions tonight and then took Totty to the vet. When he looked down her ear he said she had something in there. He tried to flush it out with saline but it wouldn't move so he said he really ought to operate to get it out today so he kept her in.

I came home and rang Janice to say I would have to make my own way to Lions and would be late and to ask them to keep my dinner hot.

The vet called at 5.45 and said she was just waking up and that he had found a seed and it looked like it had been there for a long time. I went to collect her and he showed me and it was large with all the gunk around it. He said her ear is very inflammed and he still can't see down so wants to see her again in two days.

She was so sleepy when I was driving home but would not sit or lie down but kept nodding off and then falling off the seat.

Jon was home when I got back and we decided she was not well enough to leave so he said he would not go to the rugby and I went to my Lions meeting.

We had a good meal and a very good speaker who talked about Tauranga in 1948 and it was very interesting. I then did my bit and everyone seemed to enjoy it and laughed a lot - only another ten meetings to do now!!

Got home and Tot was very restless and won't settle. Hopefully, she will once she gets into her bed.

The uni cycle Heather and Jon ordered came today and Jon has put it together, Heather had a try but was not very good at it. She needs more practice.
