So far I had a piece of cheese between running about. Swimming this morning, bg high, so no apple this time. Two hours of rescuing exploded household with the help of cleaning lady. Catching limping cat. It came home limping yesterday but I couldn't find it anymore until early afternoon today. Limping had gotten worse, front leg very swollen.
Poor cat had to be locked in a crate for two hours to prevent it from disappearing again before the vet appointment. Two hours of a stressed and panicky howling cat is very long, and Maartje must have hurt his leg even more in the crate by his panic.
As soon as he got out of the crate at the vet he was his usual relaxed self again, it's clearly the being locked in which makes him panic.
Not a good thing, as ideally he should be in a crate for 6 weeks, it turned out he has broken his front leg. With the panic we decided to let him do what he likes and provide painkillers. Fingers crossed it will more or less heal on its own.
Not a clue what I'll eat, I'll have to raid the kitchen and have a surprise meal, as shopping didn't happen.
