update...

Sammy appears to be a bit more like himself. Today has been especially hard for me because I am trying to catch up on the school work that has fallen to the side in order to take care of him, and he is having nothing of it. 

this was last night... this is his kitty narcotic deep sleep :o)

"Love on me, Mom". 

"Hold me, Mom". 

"Put your books away, Mom". 

"I'm missing a toe, Mom... I deserve to have your full attention".

"If you don't do what I want Mom, I will bite you." and he did just that. He didn't draw blood thankfully, but he latched on to my cheek, and I knew if I pulled away... I'd have a chunk out. My thoughts... he's lucky he just lost a toe, because I wanted to throw him across the room for that lil' stunt.

Through the night, the perfectly lined up and beautiful sutures were attacked... he found away to reach his paw up into his 'cone of shame' and groom himself.

This is a picture of last nights sutures...

Imagine the feeling in my gut when I walked in this morning to see his lil' blood filled paw.

Not.good.at.all!

so... after a slight major meltdown on my part, Jesse went to the pet store and got a larger 'cone of shame'. There is no way that he will outsmart this one.

But...

he is realllllly mad at me when it is on.

Exhibit A:

"I'll show you Mom"... 

Exhibit B:

 "this is my pissed off look... I want to bite you again"!

In other news...

I'm not getting any homework done and school is in full swing. I've also found my love of oatmeal and banana again. This time, with the help of Hungry Girl to the Max cookbook, I decided to add a few mini chips. O'so delicious. Dinner last night and again for breakfast/lunch this morning!!!! :o)

Love from this grateful chanimal Mom to you. Muah.
