Pollycat has been a part of this blog almost as much as my artwork so I thought I would talk about what happened to her. She's not doing very well - she is now blind, deaf, and I question whether she can even feel any sort of touch. She can't walk or stand or even sit up, but that is slowly improving. Just days ago she was running around being the usual great companion she is. So what happened?

Polly is only two years old and was healthy when we brought her to the vet for a grooming and physical this past Monday. She was fine after both and I should have brought her home. Instead, I left her at the vet longer so she can have a dental check-up as well. She wasn't the same afterwards. No explanation can be given why or how this happened but from her symptoms it looks like this healthy two-year-old had a stroke. We are told that she may improve and she is staying at the vet as she slowly recovers. A full recovery is not likely, but only a few days have passed and it is too early to make a decision on her future.

It's strange here at home without her. Hopefully she will be well enough to come back soon.

Then yesterday, my dad's betta fish died. At least the week is almost over.
