Coming home

I've been worried sick waiting to call the vet this morning but apparently all is fine and he can come home today. I'm going to pick him up after my exam (neuroanatomy, bleurgh) at 4.25 and will have to ask her lots of questions. Although it's a bit stressful happening during exams it does mean that i'm only out for a total of two hours - one on tues, one on thurs, then Steve is off on Friday which is great so we can look after him. Again only a few hours out next week, and after that it's holidays for 3 weeks. We have a skiing holiday booked just before Easter and C was to go to his grandma's for four days but I'm not sure if we'll be doing that yet.

Already planning on setting up the sofabed as i think it may be a bit much to have him climb stairs - last time he needed to wee three times in the night because of all the medication.

So glad to hear Charlie can come home. Sofa bed sounds like an excellent idea as he might be groggy from meds and doesn't need to trip over his paws going up/down.

Really glad he is coming home.

Good luck in your exam. I am very envious that you have your exams before the Easter break. Mine are the two weeks afterwards so guess what I am going to be doing in my holidays!

All the best

He's so great! I couldn't believe how lively he was when I picked him up from the vet yesterday - really wiggly and pleased to see me. I was really expecting the poorly delicate little chap we'd had before. Keeping him still IS going to be a problem - not sure if they'll give sedatives?! No walkies for 12 days!

Oh - exam timing isn't that great Anna - we have another 7 starting two weeks into term next term!
