Longest day ever.
Or at least it seemed that way, on 3 hours of sleep.
See, at 4am I was awoken to incredibly loud and violent sounding crashing and banging coming from upstairs. Then, as I'm considering how safe it would be to investigate, my mother banging on my door..
Turns out my dog was having a seizure. A very violent one, as I found out when I was trying to hold him down. Eventually we get him into the car and to the vet... where he had another one this morning. He's an old dog... I really hope they just put him down, because I'd hate to see him go through that again...

She gets around just fine on three, she is very healthy...it's even funny to see how she handles physical challenges. But it punches right through my manly emotional defenses and pulls a heartstring.
It's ironic because SHE has no problem with it and gets on with life. I'M not the one that's crippled and I'M the one that smarts. How's that for a pet teaching you a lesson in personal philosophy?

I hate to even see an animal just sick, not even mortally, but at all. They look so lost; they have no clue what's happening. Few years ago, when our other cat, Isabella, got an eye infection and just ceased to move at all, sitting all day, every day, on a couch, fur taking on a coarse, unkempt look...even THAT was tough to witness (we got her some cat-pills; she was fine after a lil while).
