Hi Woofers!
It's us again, Daisy & Holly!
Sorry about the short blog last night
but things were a bit 'HeckTic' if you know what I mean!
I went to bed with the tick still
chomping away at my cheek. In the morning it looked a bit bigger,
according to Old Two Legs, so, out with the computer to find a local vet and start
dialling on the telephone!
We got an early appointment with the
local vets practice but there was only nurses in and no vets. The
nurses said that a simple tick would be no problem and she would have
it out in no time!
You know, she never even saw the tick
before giving up and running to the telephone to talk to a real vet
in their Bury St Edmunds branch!
That was it, into the car we went and
landed in the vets place and sat in the waiting room waiting for all the
other animals to go in before us.
I got woofed at by a big black hairy
thing and sniffed at by a small bald thing and hissed at by a cat
with a sore paw who was sitting next to us!
Then it was my turn.
In we go and OTL explains about the
tick and my 'Blue Coat Syndrome'.
'Ho Ho' says the vet, 'I'm sure we'll
get on just fine', and then she tickles my ear and sticks her
stethoscope onto my chest.
It was about then that I managed to
climb up OTL and was almost sitting on his head! It was only then that the
vet said that maybe OTL being there didn't help matters, so I was
taken out the back for them to try to check my pulse and see the
tick.
About three minutes later they came
back and said that they couldn't check or see anything and maybe an
anaesthetic would be the best idea!
OTL did suggest that they try the La-La
pill we gave to Holly to calm her down before having her hair cut but
the vet didn't feel happy with that and gave OTL an estimate for the
anaesthetic treatment!
It was OTL's turn to 'Not Feel Very Happy'
You know, OTL does go into shock
so easily nowadays!
Well, OTL and I were parted and he had
to wander the streets for an hour and I got a needle stuck into me
and I was off into La-La Land.
I awoke with a thumping big head ache
and I was a bit wobbly on my legs as well, but after an hour I was let
out of the cage and marched out to see OTL waiting for me!
We both got out of there PDQ and I
crashed out in the car with this headache still crashing around
between my ears.
The good thing was, the tick had gone,
and my cheek was a bit sore but wet with some antiseptic cream the
vet had sloshed on my chops!
I slept all the way back to the caravan
and OTL put me on the bed and I crashed out again!
Holly has asked that we put on the
pictures from yesterday down on the beach where we both got in the
poo again and I got the tick!
So here goes!
First of all Holly has chosen this one
'cos she says she looks good having a roll!
 |
| Jus' Rollin' Around! |
Next she wants this one 'cos she thinks
it's funny 'cos it looks like she is shouting into the sand!
 |
| Is there anyone there? |
I like this one 'cos it shows me 'Paw
Surfin' 'cos it wasn't deep enough to swim in!
 |
| Me, doing a Beach Babe Paw Surfin! |
This one shows the beach and the storm
that missed us!
 |
| That was close! |
This is after we went off chasing
rabbits and me getting a tick and us both getting in trouble with OTL
for running off on our own.
 |
| No, this time it Definitely was Your Fault! |
By the way, we were both covered in
those nasty burrs and that's how OTL spotted the tick!
Today has been an 'Eventful Day' and I
promise not to pick up any more ticks this holiday!
See you tomorrow!
Luv,
Daisy (Sore Head and Chops!) &
Holly
Awww so sorry to hear about your an-tic's of this morning. Archie has been very worried about you. We're both glad you've lost your lodger. Lovely Pictures of yesterday, at least you had some fun before that nasty, horrible creature became attached. Hope your head stops aching soon, I'm sure you're going to get a nice dinner tonight and lots of cuddles. Is OTL's wallet feeling any better yet? Archie isn't sure whether he prefers head aches to his bum ache. Have a lovely rest and hopefully tomorrow will be a much nicer day for you :) xx
ReplyDeleteGlad you are okay daisy it a good job the T M want with you as you ended up in bury st. Edmunds as there is a nice craft shop OTL wallet would have been empty enjoy the rest of your holiday ginny x
ReplyDeleteAh, poor Daisy, why did that nasty tic think he could have a free lunch on you? Glad it is all sorted, you must try to calm down at the Vets it made for the headache and sinking wallet, what are you like?
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely Sunday and I hope your check feels better, I am sure that shortbread and lambs heart will do the job well. xxxx
I am glad that is over and you are ok but it is a pity you did not put up a picture of OTL with his wallet in his hand. I is so rare that nobody has seen it for years.
ReplyDeleteGald all is ok now. We'll done Daisy. 🐺. X
ReplyDeleteSaw that TM said on her FB....I mean her glue & glitter page that you were better today ... nothing like a good long snooze to get rid of a headache and lots of cuddles and good scoff too of course. Bet Holly missed you and was pleased to see you back. xxx Annie and Jasper (Bozo)
ReplyDeleteYo Jasper!
ReplyDeleteHolly was worried when OTL and I took off but she gave me a lick on the nose when I got back. I must say that I did have a grumble at her when she wanted to play 'Chase' but I just settled to try to sleep off the head ache!
See You Soon!
