Egads... tired... gah.
Today was a looooooooooooooong day.
Brought the car to the parental units, went to band practice. Started work on the new Soopar Seekrit Prodjikt while having tea with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
toughlovemuse and luvenditti. Had a latent-ish migraine all day, which didn't help.
Tea was lovely, until poor Jake,toughlovemuse's elderly Russian blue cat, got quite ill under our noses. An hour later, maybe even less than that, we were all (that is me, luvenditti, toughlovemuse and chibipunkdemon) at the all-night emergency vet's with the kitty in tow (kitty was *not* happy about being in the carrier), waiting to see a vet. luvenditti and I went in search of food, and we spent the next five hours or so in the waiting room.
It took four hours before Jake got in to see the vet.luvenditti lucked out by finding a deck of cards lying on a table, so we whiled away the hours chatting about bad movies and playing Crazy Eights and Gin Rummy. We played one game of "Go Fish" which chibipunkdemon won after two rounds. We decided Go Fish wasn't as fun now as when we were seven years old, and went back to Crazy Eights.
Jake is spending the night at the vet's, so that they can get some fluids in him and run some tests.
To the people on my flist who do that sort of thing: I think lighting a candle/thinking good thoughts/saying a prayer for Jake would be very appreciated. He's a good cat. :)
I'm going to bed now. Long, long day.

Maybe they got enough complaints that they changed their tune. ;)

I definitely would not be against a reasonable payment plan if I thought my cats needed care. I'm glad that it sounds like they might be changing things. I just hope I don't have to go there again :)
I looked into the pet health insurance, but I found the premiums quite pricy. I might look at that again now, thinking about it. Iago is getting old, he's 9..which isn't decrepit, but certainly middle-aged. Smoky's not far behind.
