    I followed the storm all the way back from Ballarat to Melbourne this afternoon and survived the M8/M1 in an unfamiliar car with worn tyres and a chatty passenger, AMA.

    In unrelated news, some of you may remember the saga of soxcat and the uphill battle to get vets to believe she had ovarian remnant syndrome, not separation anxiety or a UTI or Munchausen’s by proxy on my behalf. Got in touch with her human today and guess what. They found solid proof and the original vets that desexed her removed it in an open surgery for free. It was there. It took 3 surgeons but they got it out. She is now recovered and no longer suffering and hormonal.

    I am mostly very happy and relieved for sox and her human, but also, can I just gloat for a second about HOW VINDICATED I FEEL.

      Poor Sox! At least they found and sorted it so she doesn’t have to suffer in heat anymore. Well done!

        I’m so happy she’ll be heat-free for the rest of her life. No more confused yowling and peeing… but her supreme snuggliness when in heat will be missed!

      That feeling is a relief. It took me years of fighting to be believed that Melbcat was in pain, then actual proof of multiple things was found and treated.
