Finally...Friday!

Chucky and I were wearing matching bandages on Wednesday; his for the sore spot on his tail, and me due to an accidental meeting of my finger with a sharp-edged aluminum foil food lid.


I am much better today, and The Hubby removed Chuck's tail wrapping last night.  The red rash at the bloodletting spot was still there, however after four days of being smeared with first-aid cream and then made impenetrable to licks and bites, we felt it was time to let it breathe in the fresh air.  After a short time, Chucky appeared to ignore the spot, so hopefully it will remain okay and heal up on it's own.  We have a veterinarian appointment next week, in case it really needs more care.

These bandages were purchased at Ikea, and they worked nicely for me.  I'm sure Chuck has a completely different opinion.  I was weirdly giddy to be sharing fashion details with my cat!

Sad day for my co-worker; his dog of fifteen years succumbed to illness yesterday.   And it's rather cold and rainy, and my week of work after vacation has taken a lot of out of me.  Bring on the weekend!  Have fun, my friends!

  6. That is sad about your coworkers dog. It is hard to lose a beloved pet as we all know. I think it is cool that you had matching bandages.

  7. Hopefully Chuck's tail heals without further care. Sad news for your coworker. I'm sure she appreciates having an animal lover in the office who can sympathize with her loss. I hope you have a great weekend after a tough week.

  8. Work after vacay is always a bear. Glad you and Chucky are both on the mend! Mom got Ivan paw print wrap when he had a scratchy problem some time back, and not only did he bite it off but then played with it.
