I told my Mistress that from the smell of where Shadow peed this morning, it isn\u2019t going to be long now. I\u2019d chew my claws, but there is already not a lot of them left! My Mistress, on the other paw is going for the absent minded approach. She made a pot of coffee without remembering to close the container with the filter in. That serves 2 very useful purposes. Firstly it makes the water taste of coffee and secondly it directs the water flow into the jug. I\u2019ll leave you to imagine the frustration and disappointment of fresh hot water all over the side in the kitchen. When she made a fresh batch, she had it on the side as she got a tablet out of the blister wrapping and managed to shoot it straight into her coffee. Given the tablet needed to be taken whole and the coffee was meant to taste good, that cup was poured away and she started again.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ve checked Shadow\u2019s temperature and spoken to the vet and because she is still 5 days early we shouldn\u2019t be worrying yet. Of course that isn\u2019t stopping us worrying and my Mistress will be a nervous wreck by the end of the process.<\/p>\n<p>Alfie Dog with a little help from Rosemary J Kind&nbsp;<a href=\"mailto:alfie@alfiedog.me.uk\">alfie@alfiedog.me.uk<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Alfie\u2019s Diary \u2013 the Book is available at Amazon UK &#8211;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.co.uk\/dp\/B00583ZGSA\">https:\/\/www.amazon.co.uk\/dp\/B00583ZGSA<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>I am driving everyone nuts, pacing up and down like an expectant father outside the delivery room.
