Took the kittens to the vets for their first procedures this week. Philomena was spayed, and Leopold was castrated. Can't tell you how guilty it made me feel. However it was that or incest babies. The girl cat has to wear a cone for 10 days and the boy cat thinks she's some kind of monster and keeps hissing at her. She keeps trying to walk backwards to get the collar off - to no avail.
Three days later they were due for a check up. Philomena has completely changed personality and went into the basket of her own free will. Leopold put up a fight, scratched and bit me. So I left him behind.
It's all a trauma. And not cheap either!
Definitely the kindest thing to do though...despite the drama. They will forgive you!
ReplyDeleteI think they have already. Hopefully their personalities will come back to normal as well!
ReplyDeletePets are worth it!
