Well Fudge had his teeth cleaned yesterday. He has needed it for a while and being an old man of 13 it has been quite a while since his last proper teeth cleaning. Unfortunately for him he had to have one removed. As a result though he seems fine and was happily scoffing his food like his usual self this morning. When I brought him home yesterday though he was still a little groggy from the medicine and couldn't quite walk straight. He knew what he wanted to do but his legs didn't always do what he wanted. It was slightly comical if a little reminiscent of when TipTup had his problems all those years ago. Still this morning he was running along with the girls ready to be fed when I got up.
I think it is going to take a day or so for him to get over the trauma as it were. He is always the most skittish cat and incredibly wary of strangers so spending most of a day at the vets, even if part of it was unconscious, was pretty stressful for him. It took him a while to get back to purring when he got home, he was totally quiet on the actual drive. For Fudge that is pretty rare, he will purr at just getting to come in to the same room as us.
Still it is great to have Fudge back home with us. Leaving your pet with someone else is kind of scary sometimes. You want them to treat your pet with as much love as you do.
