Happy Caturday everybody. It’s been two and a half weeks since Morcilla had her surgery to remove the mystery lump on her little head. As you can see she has made a full recovery and at this point you can barely see the scar over her right eye any more. A shout out to Sonia and her fabulous team at Centro Veterinario Triana for taking such good care of us this past month or so, first for helping with Loki’s sudden illness and death and then getting Morcilla back to health. Not only super professional and capable, but also very compassionate and caring.
Please don’t take it the wrong way when I say thatΒ I hope I won’t have to see you again for a long while but I am so grateful knowing you are there. Thanks again for everything! π§‘πββ¬πΎ

It was a brief but possibly significant moment. Morcilla and Luna were suddenly on top of the little side table, studiously ignoring each other, but no hissing or spitting going on. Anyhow, I nowΒ feel okay leaving the bedroom door open at night, and also leaving them on their own when both of us have to be out. We may be getting there! ππ»

It’s the happiest of birthdays today because not only did Morcilla turn 10 (omg she’s 10!) but today we were also able to say goodbye to the dread cone that she has had to put up for the past couple of weeks since her surgery. I swear she hasn’t stopped grooming since it came off. And of course it’s extra especially happy because the cyst removed from her tiny head turned out to be benign. Really, we just couldn’t be any happier today.
Happy Birthday my gorgeous girl! πππββ¬
Morcilla shares a birthday with my beautiful Azar, born 18 years apart.

My girl gets her stitches taken out tomorrow and then weβre just another day or two from finally being able to remove the dread cone for good. Sheβs been amazing about it but even more than usual Morcilla wants to sit and cuddle on my shoulder and look out the window while Iβm working. We’re almost there… ππββ¬
