surgery

i know panic right!  don't worry.  the only person... or should i say cat... that is going under the knife is our mollygirl.  molly has quite regularly continued her days in heat.  i would not be surprised if animal control showed up because it sounds like we are torturing cats at our house.  dr. has the week off since he finished his boards ( yeah!) so he will be dropping molly off thursday morning.  they can not just take her estrogen levels so have to go in for an exploratory surgery.... i tell you what.  if they do not find anything in there, i will tell them to take the stitches back out and take out SOMETHING.  this cat is not normal.  never in my life have i seen a cat act like this!  she has been spayed before because dr. can feel her scar so we know there is an ovary or ovarian tissue still in tact.  

also molly has had failure to thrive since she has lived with us.  i think she is still so tiny because she is not spayed.  spayed cats usually get a saggy belly that hangs below.  molly is still acting like a kitten and carries her toys everywhere with her and is thin as can be but eats all the time.

so anyways, pray for molly on thursday.  i am going to be freaking out because she is like my baby and i am not going to be there for her and will probably faint when i first see her anyway.  

ok,  well 13 more days until summer (seriously)! woo hoo. 

oh and to those who knew about my knee problems ( my knee was big and swollen and i had trouble walking for several days)  well turns out that all the running i was doing in my reeeeeeeally old tennis shoes was causing the painful and swollen knee.  so i am no longer popping advil all the time.  i am back to running normally in new shoes!  yeah!... still fat though.
