The Princess and the Pea

Merely sleeping on the big bed isn’t enough for the likes of Miss Brown. She has to utilize every single pillow, too.

I started a new cat sitting job this evening. They always leave a check, and I got there to find that it was a little more than $200 short. That’s significant, and I am rightsomejesus pissed off about it. I didn’t renegotiate a lower rate with her, and if I had, I’d be charging her more, not less, as the job has gotten more complicated than it was when I first started watching her cats.

We are not amused!

That’s all I’ve got today, which is probably a good thing. I managed to sign my lease renewal form on the wrong line (called and was told, “Everybody does that!” Um, maybe you should redesign the form if “everybody” finds it confusing?), I couldn’t get through to the vet’s office (I need to make sub-q fluids appointments for the cat I’m sitting for this month, but all their phone lines were tied up), and I forgot to stop at the PO for stamps on my way home. I am apparently brain dead, and I can’t even blame it on being zoned out on allergy meds, because I forgot them at home.

Polly jumped off the top of my work table last night and landed funny on her leg. She couldn’t walk on it for a couple of hours after the fall, but is putting weight on it now. I think it’s probably just a pulled muscle, but I’m keeping an eye on it. If it doesn’t keep improving quickly, I’ll take her to the vet tomorrow. In the meantime, her appetite is normal, and she’s mobile and playful, albeit not quite as active as usual.

At this point, I think letting her rest the leg is probably the best course of (in)action. Apparently napping on top of your sister is also helpful.
