COLD DARK ROOM

[Kristoff]

Almost had a disaster earlier. I had just put Little Rue back into her enclosure after her soak. I went to the kitchen and then passed by her enclosure and glanced in. Rue was on her back. Long enough to poop again. Because I am still tired I couldn't say for sure how long but I don't think too long. So I gently turned her back over and then had to clean the poop off her. And in the enclosure Where I turned her over. I couldn't see what had made her turn over other than her cuttlebone and a slight dip by her food slab. So I put more bark around the slab and moved the cuttlebone a little out. But she did not eat her food which this evening was hibiscus flower. Which she normally always eats. She went straight to one of the spots she likes to sleep. I will watch her a little closer but I think she should be fine and just needs to get over her shock.

She might be tired too. My suggested cure of a good night’s sleep still stands. She might expect a fresh hibiscus flower in the morning.

I was going to say maybe she is also sleep deprived but thinking about it she gets wayyyyy more sleep than I do.

Lol. SNAP!

 

[Kristoff]

Oh Shame. Why was kitty put in the corner?

It’s me, gone to sulk in the corner.

It’s me, gone to sulk in the corner.

Tut tut tut. Did your Mommy never tell you that sulking won't get you anywhere? You have to take action![emoji6]

Ok. I’ll go kick @Tidgy’s Dad. Just lightly. If I can find him in the dark.

Just double check it wasn't the meerkat stirring the pot.

You think too highly of people. I think a preemptive strike is acceptable, every now and then. [emoji48]

Got to go iron a shirt for hubby and then it is lights out for me. Night night all.

I am washing my knees this evening, but should have time for a natter.

Good evening Adam. How long you need for washing your knees ???? They seem to be very dirty. What have you done ???

Good night, Carol! Hope both you and Rue feel better in the morning.

Just heard from the vet's office. She's not much different, but that's really to be expected because antibiotics take a few days to kill of enough bacteria to make a difference. I brought her to them Tuesday, so this is only the 3rd day she's had her meds.
So far: so good!!

Oh, just as an amusing aside: they have her on an antibiotic, of course, but they also have her on an anti-inflammatory called meloxicam. Meloxicam is what my husband takes for his arthritis!!!!!! So he and Jacques are on the same medication!!!!!!!!

@Tidgy's Dad @CarolM

Meloxicam seems to be a unique and often used medicine .... It is used for cats and dogs against pain. Hmmmmmmmm...... ?????

Hey everyone. Woke up sick this morning, don't know if it is the flu yet. Fever, soar throat- I can hardly talk.
Gonna probably sleep most of the day and won't be lurking around much.
Talk tomorrow or later today if I feel better!

Oh poor you ! Sleep well and recover. I hope you are not badly sick. Sending the best wishes and vibrations your way.

 

[Bee62]

I am actually still on leave but have been super busy while home. I think I would be better off at work. Less exhausting. I did however take a short nap. So not feeling so bad now.

A nap is fine to recover from being a little bit tired. It is allright when you take a nap.

Hello Carol, I don`t think that Rue was hurt by lying on her back but like you`ve said it was a shock for her. I think she will be allright.

Good night, Bee, and anyone else around. Time for me to stop staring at the screen and read a book. Yoga early tomorrow. *yawn*

Good night Lena. Enjoy your book and have a good night. Sleep well.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

I'm sleep deprived soooooo I don't care. Coffee is to me what whiskey is to an alcoholic.

Coffee with a dash of whisky !
Now you're talking!

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Ok. I’ll go kick @Tidgy’s Dad. Just lightly. If I can find him in the dark.

OW ! ! !
Something just kicked me ! !
Pesky armadillo, I expect.

No meerkats in the Cold Dark Room at present. (I don't think)
They're is several Roommates houses though, it would seem.
Nos da, Carol!
Sleep well.
It's lovely to have you with us in here.
