Oh ouch! A wrenched back is so painful; hope you've put some linement or a heating pad on it!! Do you suppose Eva asked her friend dear Merlin to do a wee spell for her..... anything to escape the claw clipping....

I think she has a direct hotline to Merlin and his spells

[Elaine]

Are those grapes and lucozade still on offer coz I'm feeling pretty sorry for myself

[dandysmom]

Virtual white seedless grapes and this month's Catnip newsletter are on the way! Naughty Eva!!! Dear Merlin is one powerful wizard; we had best stay on his good side......

[Elaine]

Maybe I could persuade Merlin to put a spell on Eva to make clipping the claws on her front feets easier
Angie, how easy is it to win Merlin round if your human?

Merlin has promised me on his honour that he would NEVER cast any spell that led to anyone suffering pain - not even to stop Eva from having her claws snipped. He had such a lovely soft look in his eyes when he told me that (well I knew he wouldn't anyway) that I know he's telling me the truth.

He said he would think about whether there is any way to make clipping her front claws easier, I expect you've tried a few drops of Back Rescue Remedy in her water bowl?

Sounds as if you could do with a few drops yourself Elaine! Hope you manage to get a reasonable night's sleep.

What were you thinking of intervening in a dog fight - I'm told a bucket of cold water is the only thing to use.

[Elaine]

I couldnt possible have thrown a bucket of cold water over the sofa . Besides Tally had eaten the bucket .
I just reacted coz it idnt look like they were gonna stop and they are big dogs, so I grabbe one by the collar and put her out of the room until they had both calmd down.

But sometimes you act before you think! My Siamese got into a fight in my back garden with a strange tom; I knew better but acted instinctively and grabbed him.....ended up in the ER getting a stitch and a rabies shot! Had the scar for years!

[Elaine]

Oh dear god, I bet that was painful. I'd probably have done the same thing.

[dandysmom]

Whoops, I mis-spoke! It was a tetanus shot! The rabies shot was years ago when the dog bit me,,,,and hurt like hell! But it was just the first of the series: police located the dog and it was current on its shots....
