So, this post is sort of linked to 😵💫😭💉🤕Taking Back The Reins - Part 19: 2 nights from hell 😵💫😭💉🤕 but 've been so ill I haven't been able to tell the story coherently.
I got horrific food poisoning - which I am still fighting. Urgh. I have completely lost track of time, but I think it started on Sunday night. And oh my god, what a nightmare it was.
So what they don't tell you, is that if you get sick and have a high enough fever, it affects every injury you have. I felt like I was cuddling a porcupine. In fact, I still feel a bit like that today but I finally had a nice bath which seems to have settled symptoms down nicely. I have also been trying to stay hydrated as much as possible...
Cally, however, could not have given a shit. Well, that's not entirely true. With the amount of time she spent scratching around in the litterbox and spraying cat litter all over the room, there was definitely cat poop involved. which was... just wonderful; for my nausea.
It was like Cally had been given a cup of coffee or a line of speed as she went absolutely bezerk at around 3 am, playing with non-existent bugs and whatnot.
She also managed to trap herself under my bedside table. She pulled on the cables and managed to knock my night light over, which is also the place where I store all my earrings, so they went flying too! which is also where I keep I spent ages trying to figure out how I was going to move the bed, without waking @zakludick up. When I eventually got desperate and tried to grab her to pull her out, she disappeared and simply walked out of the back of the bedside table and looked at me like she was f!@$%ing with me, I swear!
Omg, so as soon as daylight came I got Aime to evict her.. and move her into her bed, and thank God I did. I have been so sick.
I have needed to make so many emergency bathroom trips. The dizziness and total disorientation means I probably would have left the door open and she would have escaped! She's not ready for that. And I still need to get her stitches removed after being sterilized.
On Monday, Lexi showed signs of slowly starting to forgive me...if you can call this forgiveness...
But yesterday she actually came on her own to nap with me.
So, yes, cats are absolute assholes, but I continue to adopt them! Am I insane or are they gaslighting me to think that way? Little freaking furry narcissists! I still love them though!🐾🐈❤️
