Friday, 19 November 2021 ~ Haru's Visit To The Vet Clinic

I brought Haru to the vet clinic for a check-up on her wound today.  The vet told us that the wound is healing well and he snipped off a tiny bit of suture.  To encourage a speedy and complete recovery of the external wound, Haru still has to wear the Elizabethan cone for another week.  

Haru is now more adept in removing the post-op suit from her body, even with the cone on!  She turns her head to her back to where the velcro on the suit is, then slowly pulls off the velcro with her mouth and then wriggles her way out of the suit! And the suit is snug-fitting.  See how determined this stubborn feline is! 

On the way to the vet clinic.

Waiting for our turn at the clinic.  Haru seems to enjoy herself more being in a cloth sling back than being put into a cat carrier. She now associates the carrier with vet visits and runs away from the carrier.

These 4 tiny kittens are Haru's siblings. Her mother gave birth to yet another litter of kittens.  This batch is the 2nd batch of kittens after giving birth to Haru some time around early January 2021.  Her mother is known to give birth 2-3 times in a year every year! Poor Molly. 

We've not seen the new batch of kittens yet. The mother cat gave birth to the kittens outside a shop next to hubby's central kitchen. According to a staff there, the kittens are now missing and they discovered a python at the shop and called the Bomba to capture the python.  We're now hoping that the snake didn't swallow  up the 4 kittens 🙏

The previous batch of kittens are now about half a year old and still living inside a drain behind hubby's central kitchen.
