When I went at 4 p.m. to pick him up I could hear him before I went through the door!!! I think it was something from Iron Maiden this time (he has eclectic tastes!). The nurse told me that he had quite a story to tell her when he came to and still hadn't quite finished thank you, but wasn't he a sweetie! :)
Funnily enough he was quiet all the way home, but I could feel his beady eye boring into my soul. Then once he was in the house he started up again and didn't let up until about half an hour ago. Ok Austin, I've got the message … Give me a break why don't you!!!
(The vet had to cut away quite a bit of gum, but says everything went to plan. He's on antibiotics and eating well. I have to take him back in about ten days for a check up.)
Thanks everyone for your purrs and good thoughts. They are really appreciated and I hope we will be back proper blogging very soon :)

BTW we have been given another star for our Blog of the Year badge from the lovely Cathy Keisha :) Thank you very much indeed. We now have four :)

Poor Austin! At least we know his lungs are in superb condition. Here's some purrs for him...
ReplyDeleteAnd who knew he had such a wide range of musical taste?
Poor Austin! Feel better buddy!
ReplyDeleteMaxwell: Austin, dood, I feel your pain. Momma tells me I have Horrid teeth and not to get too attached to them (!!). I lost 12 already :(
ReplyDeleteSo glad you're home safe. paws crossed that this is the last you've seen of the Tooth Monster!
I am glad you came through the operation with your vocal chords intact, Austin! Heal up fast so you can get back to regular kitty business!
ReplyDeleteAustin, we are so glad that you are home! I'm sure that stuff they use to make you take a nap while they work on you has made you feel very strange. We are sorry you have problems with your teeth. Some kitties are more prone to problems than others.
ReplyDeleteOh Austin, you sang beautifully and I can tell your mama loved every verse! I know she recorded it to listen to over and over thru her earphones while you are having a well deserved deep sleep recovering from this visit to the tooth monster. Love and snuggles from one Tuxie to another. xoxoxox
ReplyDeleteAustin I sing on the way to the Vet too. Glad to hear all is good. Purrs buddy.
ReplyDeleteAustin buddy, I'm very glad you got a chance to get some Iron Maiden in there too! Mega purrs are heading your way for your gums, mouth and toofs to heal quickly with ease and for you to feel better ASAP! I hopes that you get Num-Nums soon and don't have to resort to the scissors...
ReplyDeleteAwww poor Austin! We hope he feels much better soon!
ReplyDeleteHugs and love to you both!
Sherlock,Ash and Traveler
Yo Pal! I think we might need to go have something a little stronger than a beer in a day or two, all right? I'm thinkin' one a them Martoonis the Humans think so highly of. Plus, you get an OLIVE, and I like olives.
ReplyDeleteThe Human says she is very very happy to hear things went well for The Boy! And she is sure Mama is majorly relieved, too XOXOXO
The Human says that because you all live in the UK, well, and because I am the King of California, that we should say congratulations on the Royal Baby-to-Be. We understand that there's a move to make it ok for a girl first-born to be first-in-line, and the Human approves of that. So Pip-Pip or Brilliant or Tally-Ho or whatever the appropriate phrase for Congrats, that's Awesome! might be ;-)
Poor Austin. I hope you feel better soon. I still do want to do a duet with you. Shall we decide on a song??
ReplyDeleteWe're glad all went well for Austin! And it's nice to know his lungs are in great shape! ;)
ReplyDeleteHappy all went according to plan! Sending healing purrs and comforting thoughts. XOXO
ReplyDeleteSending you some comforting woofs and good to see you in Blogville again! Congrats on your stars :)

We've missed something here! Austin, get well soon, and keep singing! You could be famous like Giuseppe and have a lovely lady admirer too.
ReplyDeleteGlad everything went smoothly! You deserve to have the whole bed to yourself after the ordeal. :)
ReplyDeleteOh sweet Austin...we didn't realize you were going in for a procedure. : ( So happy to hear it went well and you're back home getting on with life as usual. With what I've had to listen to lately, you and Waffles Too could take your show on the road!
ReplyDelete(((purrs)))
xo, Katie
I'm so glad the procedure went smoothly and I hope Austin is totally recovered soon. Also hope he's finally finished his singing for now, although I've no doubt his voice is stunning LOL.

ReplyDeleteWe didn't realize Austin was going under the knife!! Terrible business. We are purring for a speedy recovery.
ReplyDeletePoor Austin, Sassy here. Don't listen to her - you sing all you like! She deserves it. In fact if you wish, you will come over and add my voice!
ReplyDeleteI am very glad that Austin's surgery went well and that he got some more singing practice in! And I hope his mouth is not hurting too much.
ReplyDeleteAw, poor little guy. All that opera and no backup chorus. Purrs to you all. What an ordeal and I hope it is soon over.
ReplyDeleteAwww, sweet Austin we are happy the surgery is all done and we hope you are starting to feel a whole lot better. Hugs and nose kisses sweetie!
ReplyDeletePoor Austin! Glad the surgery went well and hope you start to feel better soon.
ReplyDeleteLittle Austin puddle. Get well soon.
ReplyDeleteWhew! It was quite a relief to hear from you Buddy! And speaking directly from your Pink Blankie, too. I was honored.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tips on how to comment on the Happy Occasion. Jolly good show, what? Pip pip!! Righty-o, Wills. I guess you haven't been "tutored" then?
So glad all is well with you Austin and that you are home safe and sound! What a singing career you have had lately!! Who knew that you had such musical talents!! xoxo
ReplyDeletePop over Austin :) xxx
ReplyDeleteMollie and Alfie

I'm glad our boy is okay but GOOD LUCK GETTING HIM BACK TO THE VET FOR HIS CHECK UP!!!!!
ReplyDeleteSending purrs and arias to our favorite tuxie for speedy recovery!
ReplyDeletePurrs of recovery
ReplyDeleteMe was worried. Me is glad he came through it all and us up to singing! Purrhaps he would likes me to puts on my nurse's uniform and come and take car of him.
ReplyDeleteKisses

This is a lot to take in. Wow. I'm just glad Austin is fine... I can't believe he went all piggy after the new meds. Fortunately, he seems to be in good shape.
ReplyDeleteAs for the blogging break, I believe I missed it. Heck, I missed a lot of things. I've been seek of the flu for the past four days which has rendered me useless. I hope all is well.
Huggies and Cheese,
Haopee
I'm so glad all went well. Austin, you are quite the dramatist!
ReplyDeleteWishing Austin a speedy recovery!! Glad it went well (other than the loud serenade). We never know just what kind of lungs our kitties have until they have to take a ride in the car, MOL. When I arrive at the vet with kitty in tow, I always tell them that I need a Valium.
ReplyDeletePoor sweetheart! Poor ears! We'll be purring for a full recovery! Purrs...from your friends at Colehauscats.com
ReplyDelete"Iron Maiden" - snort.
ReplyDeleteThis was our Siamese's favorite group :)
I'm sure Austin even does the guitar and drum parts as well.
Seriously, I'm glad all is well. Enjoy your break!
Poor Austin, you need lots of tuna, salmon, all the fine things in life. What's your favorite "pick me up"?
ReplyDeleteWe feel so sorry for Austin..and YOU!
ReplyDeleteI don't think you'll have an easy time of it ten days from now, either..wonder what musical selections will be on tap then!
We hope he feels better soon.
Hugs and love,
Tom, Mom Julie, Tinker, Mitty & Anastasia
Drop by, I've got something for you:)

ReplyDeleteAustin, so happy all that is over with--well except for the follow up..... It wasn't fun I can tell!!!
ReplyDeleteThings will be all better tho soon!!
Thanks for your visit.
Kittens play and keep the house looking like a hurricane just came through--I pick it all up and 10 minutes later it is all back down again. I didn't remember that part of it from when I was a girl and we had kittens!!!
Yo, Big Boy! Miss you--I haven't had a decent beer in days and days! Lemme know when you're ready for a pub crawl!
ReplyDeletePurrs to you buddy, hope you are feeling well.
ReplyDeleteAustin, Buddy, thanks for stopping by--I miss you! Purr on your Human & get her feeling better, okay? Perhaps I'll pop over on the weekend & help purr.
ReplyDeleteHope Austin recovers well.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your kind words of sympathy in the loss of our Joey.
cats of wildcat woods
I am sure he is fine by now - at least by our standards. Maybe not so much by his ;-))))
ReplyDeleteI truly hope both of you are doing well. Till this morning I havent seen an update from you on my blog roll. Must have been a glitch in the system. Love and hugs across the pond.

ReplyDeleteMollie and Alfie
Everything all right in there. We got your card! At first I was wondering who in bloggyville owned a cute lab puppy. And then I saw your names and I and my niece just had to laugh at the irony of having a cat send a dog card. Thank you for the card.
ReplyDeleteMay you have a wonderful Christmas and a Happy New Year.
Huggies and Cheese,
Haopee
Just popping in to say Hi and Merry Christmouse!

ReplyDeleteSending you wishes for a wonderful Chrissymouse! I am being 'bandoned for a few days, so I might not have computer access (alas, no thumbs) but I'll be back soon! XOXOXO
Hope you're all better now Austin. Have a wonderful holiday!!!! woo woo woo!
