🐈💩 A FUNNY HEATHCLIFF HAPPENING TODAY 🐈💩
So like, one of the things the vet cautioned me about was monitoring Heathcliff over the week to ensure he could shit and piss, after the trauma of being hit by a car. He's also on meds now, she told me to call if he vomited.
This meowning after his breakfast, he puked. It's been three days since starting his meds so I thought it may not be related. Anyway, he puked, and puked 3-4 times more after that.
He also went into the kitty litter to try to shit, and I could see he was straining, but no turds were coming out. 😿 The accident was Thursday, and today being Monday, I've been kinda concerned that he hasn't taken a shit yet.
Then comes lunch, when he wasn't interested in his food. That was a red flag for me, Heathie absolutely loves food. Any time, any kind. 🚩
So basically I called the vet, told them all this, and she told me to bring Heathie in for examination.
So I grab him with him being quite reluctant and not wanting to go, put him in the brand new cat carrier that just arrived 30 minutes ago, and off we go walking to the vet, a short 20 min walk away. I swear the guy farted in protest when I picked him up. Anyway. 😾
So like, I get to the vet, she opens the carrier and we take him out... and there's two small round hard turds in the carrier. Brav shit in the brand new carrier... nice. Vet laughs and said no probs and picks up the two brown marbles to inspect 'em.
Anyway, she examines him, feels his belly, sticks a thermometer up his butt, and checks his vitals. We talk a bit about my concerns, she said it was pretty normal after a massive trauma like being hit by a car, then being on all kinds of meds, to have a fucked up stomach and constipation. But the good news is that his tummy felt like it had turds, but they weren't overly hard or compacted. So the vet reckons he'll shit them out eventually.
Big relief for me.
As for the vomiting, also reckons it's alright. We could change the meds but the current one is good as it's also an anti-inflammatory.
👉👉👉 Heathcliff then jumps off the examination table, goes under it... and squats... in the "I'm gonna shit now" position... 😬 He then squeezes out a MASSIVE FUCKING TURD on the vet's floor, right in front of our eyes. 👈👈👈
Vet laughed her head off then picked up the poo to examine it. Said there was no blood, felt not too compacted, so was actually great that he shat right there so she could see. Sheesh man.
So I apologise profusely, pack him up, and we head home.
One the way home, Heathcliff must have wanted to teach me a lesson because he shat FOUR MORE FUCKING TURDS into the new carrier, messing it all up. Geez Louise man, absolute disaster to clean up.
TL;DR dude is sleeping like an angel now at home, feeling great about his empty bowels. 😩
Honestly, I'm just glad he shat. I'm feeling a bit better knowing that his bowels are functioning okay after the accident. What a fucking mess tho, geez. 🙈💩
Just got a motion sensor alert and Heathie was caught on the camera (wif Shaddie's glowing eyes in the background!) 🥹🐈
His limping seemed to be getting better today. 🙏😻 Caught him jumping up and down from the sofa and kitchen counter a few times!

Heathcliff update: this evening he hobbled up the stairs and curled up with Shaddie for a while in my office chair, for a change of scenery.
Hopefully it's a sign that his injuries are healing a bit. We were worried about him going up and down the stairs, but it seems he's done so safely tonight!
Great to see him gradually becoming more mobile again! Go, Heathie, go! 🥹🐈

Went to the Natural History Museum today in London and caught this outside as we were leaving. Felt apt.
After two long and very terrifying days of unknowns, Heathie is now sleeping peacefully at home with Shadow, and we're reassured with the knowledge that at least he has no internal bleeding or broken bones.
Absolute miracle really, to be hit by a car and come away without catastrophic injury. He's limping around, but is mostly in good spirits. We're administering an anti-inflammatory and painkiller for the next week and keeping him indoors.
I am so fucking livid at whoever hit a cat, and ran away. At the same time I am grateful that the neighbourhood immediately came to his rescue and found me so I could take him to the vet. Immediate action very likely made a huge difference between life and death.
I'll try to drop my rage and just be super thankful that Heathcliff is safe with us. 🥹🙏🐈
arfy luvs u my ginger boi. ❤️🔥
UPDATE: GUESS WHO'S HOME, MFERS?! 🥹🐈🐈⬛
X-rays went amazingly: ribs okay, hips, torso, legs, all okay! We suspect deep soft tissue ouchies, which will take weeks to heal, and possibly longer term risk of nerve damage, but given he was hit by a fucking car, I think that is a massive win for Heathie.
So relieved... thank you all for the pawsitive vibes and support, our family truly appreciates it. 🙏🙏🙏
Brav lives to fight another day! 😼❤️🔥
Tankz everyone for the overwhelming show of support. You amaze me. 🙏🥹
Pawsitive vibes continue to be needed for Heathie today. I dropped him off earlier for a full set of x-rays, and we are all hoping he doesn't have a broken hip or other injuries.
Last night he spent with Shadow by his side, caring for him. He was limping about today, so clearly still tender from the accident, but at least he was mobile. He had a voracious appetite last night which was a great sign, but he's had to fast now for the x-ray.
I will give an update later once the x-rays are in and I go to collect my ginger furbol.
My worst nightmare, Heathcliff was hit by a car yesterday. 😿
By grace of miracle he's okay. Back home tonight with us but going for xrays tomorrow meowning.
pls send him ur kitty prayers. I'll be afk for a bit dealing with this, but will share an update soon as I can. 😿🙏
So today my daughter picked off all the toppings on the pizza and left the tattered remains for me.
Now I find myself eating the microwaved corpse of a pizza at 3AM.

It's been a very hard development slog for us on the @imgn team, but we've finally gone live with our platform split changes!
Our core platform is now completely SFW, and a NSFW focused platform and bots, etc. will be coming online in the coming days!
Excited for a future where we can give the proper focus to both worlds.

Imagine stacking $IMGN not by gambling, or staking, or even buying--but just by creating great gens and publishing them for others to enjoy.
Imagine having done this the entire bear cycle, then having alt szn melt faces.
Tried an interesting new combination today, smoked salmon and avocado on a waffle, with hollandaise sauce.
The sweetness of the waffle is a really nice twist on the flavour.
