Today was Emmit's scheduled neutering at thevets. We were to be there at10:30, but we got thereearly. We had to take his food away at midnight last night,and I hated doing that. He seemed so unhappy, and couldn'tfigure out why mommy and daddy took his food away. He was sohungry this morning.
We went through the whole ordeal of getting him comfortable in hiscarrier, in the car, and drove over there...(and Martin skipped hismorning at work). We got to the vet, and we learned that shehad to do an emergency ferrit operation, and she needed toreschedule. They also told us that they told us the wrongtime. They normally make high-risk surgeries earlier, around8/8:30...so had we been there earlier, we could have gotten itdone.
Needless to say, we were upset. We put poor Emmit through allthe hunger and stress for nothing. Good thing I brought alonghis favorite broccoli along just in case for when he got out of surgeryalong. He munched that happily on the way home, butstill.
Next Thursday we have to do it all over again...sigh
