Default Springtime with Betty

It might be a good thing that shot was from that angle. Looking at
her jaw these days is almost enough to give me a heart attack. All my
clothes have blood on them. Betty sometimes sprays me with blood when
she shakes her head. It's out of a horror movie.


I'm so sorry, Tak. Thankful though that you didn't take a picture from
another angle. I admit I'm a coward and couldn't bear to look at it. It
must be so hard to live with that (well, for Betty too, of course). Wish
there was something I could do.

Her regular TED looked at it on Tuesday, but all that they could do
was clean and irrigate the area, prescribe antibiotics, and give me a
brochure on a local pet cemetery.

I remember how while I was waiting at the TED office, I kept hearing,
"Is that Betty? Is Betty here? Betty!" I thought they had another
pet in the back named Betty that they were playing with, but they told
me they were just excited to see Betty. They told me that she was the
sweetest cat.


Aaaww. It's so unfair. Just so unfair.
