Got spayed and chipped today. Boudica decided she's gonna tough it out - eviltoast

She’s my little warrior queen. She’s thougher than a bix of nails always trying to get her way.

Niniane is unhappy and has been hiding under the bed and hissing ever since we got home. She’s curled up on the heating pad at the foot of the bed and she seems content woth that for now. She keeps hissong at Bou though. Definitely does not want to deal with her right now.

    She keeps hissong at Bou though.

    Our older cat did that when we got our kitten spayed even though he’s been neutered for years, turns out the anesthesia and other surgical chemicals (like for sterilization) really screw with the cats scent so other family cats freak out because they can’t recognize the scent any more even though they look familiar

    Should wear off within 48 hours

      Nini also got spayed today. She was just very unhappy and a bit traumatized by the experience. It took 15 minutes just to get Nini out of the pet carrier when we got home.

    ey, I’m from round (the OG) Boudica’s ends. It’s an unpopular opinion on a nerd platform but fuck the Roman empire, let us live in swamps.

      My mom’s a Gerodie so i have first hand experience of the tyranny of English rule. Forced to do laundry and clean my room, if you don’t eat your meat you can’t have any pudding, forcwd to listen to Duran Duran for hours on end. The Brits should never have been allowed to leave their island.

    Bou is an absolute beauty! (imagine I pronounced it as “bou-utie”)

    Hopefully your cats make up soon
