"Free, free, set them free"

 

 
 
I thought you might want to know that Derry has been healing nicely since he got his stitches out, and the cone off, last Thursday (August 6th). 

 
He does groom the incision area quite a bit, but already the fur is starting to grow back. I hope he feels better without that huge fatty lump attached to his side! I know I would, if I were in the same situation. LOL.

Anyway, I hope everyone is doing well, is surviving the summer heat (if you're in the northern hemisphere). As much as I dislike our long, bitterly cold winters, I will be glad for the respite from the high heat and humidity. Maybe when I'm 85 I'll appreciate it, but not right now. :-P

Take care; peace to all.

Dearest Kim,
So good to see your Derry out and about and FREE!
That fur will regrow in no time and his grooming will not harm him, guess it is itchy.
Our Spooky ate his pill so well last night, we'd hidden it inside a little treat but it came out and he ate it anyway. So sweet and he did manage to stand on his right leg and walk a lot better so we both are confident that he will get rid of his pain!
Have been studying Turmeric for cats, so we will wait and see if the pain goes away for knowing sure it is the right thing to treat.
If our fur babies hurt; we hurt!
Hugs,
Mariette

We're so happy Derry is free of the cone, and healing so splendidly. :) And we understand how you feel about this oppressive heat, though we certainly aren't wishing for an early winter, either!

Oh how wonderful that you are free and outside having a wonderful day. Derry, mom bought me a collar to use just like yours. It’s in a closet until I ever need it. I hope I don’t, but that was so pretty.

Good for Derry. A successful process. Undoubtedly, he is appreciative of his freedom, both from the lump and the cone. He did well, and I hope, of course, that that continues.

As for the heat and humidity, I don't care for them, either. It's warm here but not as hot and humid as it was. I won't mind the early autumn...

The heat actually feels good to me now most of the time with the PMR, but yesterday was like being stuck in a dishwasher the humidity was so high. Glad Derry is healing nicely. I am actually hoping summer sticks around for awhile I am dreading cold season.

So glad to hear Derry is doing so well. We have had terrible bad awful heat too. What is that about?

Hooray for Derry! I'm sure he's a happy cat.

We're getting a bit cooler here this week, so hopefully it will make its way to you. I'm not ready for fall, if I could we'd have this weather - low to mid 20C until December!

Take care and stay well!

Good on you Derry. I am like you, I don't like the extreme temperatures, too hot or too cold is just not me. How you guys cope with the snow is beyond me. I like warm days, but like it cool enough to sleep.

It is good to see you looking so content, Derry :) Purrs coming your way from Winston and Emily.
I have to admit I am looking forward to cooler autumn weather.
