Poor Aristotle<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Poor Aristotle is feeling very down. He went to see the vet yesterday and he has fluid and inflammation around his operation site on his knee. The vet doesn\u2019t think it\u2019s infection, but because it\u2019s so important that it isn\u2019t. He is now on two types of antibiotic, including giving him an injection yesterday, just to be safe. She is hoping it is just a reaction to having his stitches removed. Iif Ari isn\u2019t improving by Friday he may need to have the knee x rayed to see what\u2019s happening. He is having a little more in the way of painkillers too. He\u2019s very unhappy. We all want to cheer him up but that\u2019s not all that easy at the moment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dickens<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Ari\u2019s brother, Dickens, has been through similar surgery recently too. He is simply refusing to be in a crate and making life quite hard for his humans. When I told Shadow she said I was to send him a message from his mother. She says you are to be a good boy and do as you\u2019re told. Being disobedient was not the way she brought you up and if you don\u2019t do as you\u2019re told she will get on the train herself to come to visit you and put you in your place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dickens, I live with Shadow, trust me you really don\u2019t want that!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thank you<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Our readers really are lovely. I told you we needed some compost the other day and thanks to the suggestions we received, the delivery arrived yesterday. That\u2019s really good news for me as it\u2019s going to mean lots of time outside helping Mum to plant the flower seeds she has. I think we\u2019re doing that tomorrow and Saturday. Shadow will help too. I feel sad that Ari won\u2019t be able to help as those are his favourite times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
