Hi folks, not been on here yesterday cos I was in London all day for work but I thought I would let you know that Dylan and Hobbes are now friends again

I think Hobbes just wore Dylan down in the end cos he was determined to be friends again

Dylan stopped hissing by Tuesday evening and was just running away but then I woke up around 3am on Weds morning to find the two of them asleep snuggled up together

Hobbes is absolutely fine and has been running around like a lunatic ever since he came home so no ill effects at all.

It took a few days for Jaffa to stop hissing at Mosi when he came back at the vets but they did eventually kiss and make up

I've never had any problems with mine hissing at each other when they've come back from the vets......I suppose they are used to the smells by now

Ann Clarke (Tabby cat) · « **Reply #20 on:** May 01, 2007, 13:12:03 PM »

Not quite yet Helen, Dylan is still hissing at poor Hobbes and giving him the odd swipe but it is getting better and they have been lying asleep on the armchair about 6 inches away

The trouble was that not only did Hobbes smell like the vets but he was very boisterous when he came back and wanted to follow Dylan everywhere and Dylan wasn't having any. Today Dylan is veering between hissing at him and then sniffing and giving the odd lick - Hobbes is very confused bless him

I expect the fact that he is now neutered is confusing Dylan a bit too. On the recovery front Hobbes is fine, I split the two of them up last night which meant Hobbes kept me awake between 3 and 4.30 jumping onto the wardrobes and generally running around so I think you could say he has recovered

He's used the litter tray for a wee but no poo yet but then he had nothing to eat from Sunday at 6pm until he came home last night so not surprising. He's being good and not licking himself too much so we shouldn't have any problems. Hopefully the two of them will be back to being friends in a day or two

Have the boys kissed and made up yet? Hope Hobbes is recovering well

Hi All well Hobbes is home acting as if nothing has happened and giving me heart failure by climbing on everything

. He's had some dry food and some wet food and is happily exploring the house as if he's been away for ages. Unfortunately Dylan is hissing at him and having the odd bat of the paw sillly old so and so

I'm sure they will be ok once Hobbes stops smelling like the vets, am doing lots of stroking of both of them to exchange scents so hopefully it won't be too long before Dylan is happy again. Poor Hobbes wants to cuddle up to him and he's having none of it at the moment

Hobbes says to thank everyone for all the hugs and kisses and he says he feels fine but he's got a feeling there's something missing

Glad everything went well, hope Hobbes is home by now getting spoilt

I remember a couple of years ago when I took Sooty in to have his lobbed off, god knows why but I must have had my soft head on that day but I burst into tears in the vets

I was like that when Max had some teeth out a year or so ago, I'd never had to leave him before and got all upset when they took him through the doors

Awww bless him, so pleased he's okay. I remember a couple of years ago when I took Sooty in to have his lobbed off, god knows why but I must have had my soft head on that day but I burst into tears in the vets

I felt such a wuss as I have had loads done and no problems but I couldn't help myself

I know how you feel though about not being able to work or anything, I just can't relax until they are home.......I ring about twice to check they are okay and still worry about them

Lisa · « **Reply #12 on:** April 30, 2007, 14:53:50 PM »

ahhh glad he is ok Anne. I know when Cleo had to have 5 teeth out i was a wreck all day, couldnt eat or anything

clarenmax · « **Reply #11 on:** April 30, 2007, 14:17:42 PM »

Yay, glad he OK. Give him a gentle head rub from me for being good

Susanne (urbantigers) · « **Reply #10 on:** April 30, 2007, 13:47:10 PM »

Glad the little lad is ok, albeit minus some body parts

I always worry too. I took the day off work when I took Mosi in as I knew I wouldn't be able to concentrate on work with him at the vets.

Ellie · « **Reply #9 on:** April 30, 2007, 13:42:01 PM »

Awww Ann I know exactly how you feel

So pleased Hobbes will be home tonight

Bet you can't wait to see him

Sending him lots of love and gentle cuddles xxxx

Ann Clarke (Tabby cat) · « **Reply #8 on:** April 30, 2007, 13:23:13 PM »

I will be spoiling him rotten of course

I have some lovely fish for both of them tonight as a special treat. Thanks all, it's nice to be among fellow worriers

Mark · « **Reply #7 on:** April 30, 2007, 13:20:31 PM »

He will be home in no time and expecting extra treats!

I hate depriving them before the vets too - anyway, I'm sure he will be fine - especially as his sensitive bits are no more

smudgepickles · « **Reply #6 on:** April 30, 2007, 13:14:14 PM »

aww bless you, it is a worry everytime we have to leave them and thats because your a good mummy

Hope the little ones not too sore tonight

Kisses from me and head kisses from my fur babies too

xxxxxxx

Ann Clarke (Tabby cat) · « **Reply #5 on:** April 30, 2007, 13:12:12 PM »

Just rung the vet and everything is absolutely fine

I can pick him up later, have to sneak off work a bit earlier. Thank goodness - I might get some work done now

clarenmax · « **Reply #4 on:** April 30, 2007, 11:14:16 AM »

I'm sure Hobbes will be fine

You're right though, it doesn't stop us worrying, but that's what makes us good slaves

Keep us posted.

Ann Clarke (Tabby cat) · « **Reply #3 on:** April 30, 2007, 11:05:16 AM »

Thanks Des I'll post back when I know everything is ok.

Desley (booktigger) · « **Reply #2 on:** April 30, 2007, 11:04:21 AM »

Good luck Ann.

Well I'm a very nervous mummy at the moment cos I dropped Hobbes off at the vet this morning at 9 am to be neutered

he's also getting microchipped and vaccinated at the same time poor thing. I have to ring between 1 and 2 to see if everything is ok. I know he'll be fine but it doesn't stop you worrying does it. The vet checked him over and said he was very healthy and then checked the relevant area and said he was very well formed down there if you know what I mean

The worst bit was having to take the food away after 6 last night and try and feed Dylan without Hobbes getting any

Anyway just wanted to share with folks who know where I'm coming from, will try and get some work done but not sure how well I'll be concentrating.
