Tomorrow is the big reveal!; Yodie the Yowler is back!; 1/14; post #33

[Laura's Babies]

TODAY is the BIG day!! Keep us posted and get the camera ready! (fingers crossed that it goes wonderfully!)

The pix aren't the best but Ms. Yodifer was definitely not in the mood for a photo op. I tried to hold her w/my left hand and take the pix w/my right. Her left eye still looks cloudy but Dr. Lee says it's healed. Now I'm putting a salve in the eye to get rid of the scarring.

After I cleaned her up, she didn't even go to her private spot. She stood at the top of the basement stairs and cleaned herself for 35 minutes, then went downstairs and she's still cleaning herself. I can only imagine how fun it's going to be now to try to catch her when it's medicine time this evening. LOL I can tell that she was just so shocked when I took that collar off. What a relief for both of us. If she manages to get that incision open again, I don't know what I'll do. It's healed pretty tightly, though. Anyhow, my girl Yodie Yodie is back!

[Pinot's Mom]

Yay Yodie!! Congratulations!! Now, go get clean you stinker!

Yodie - you still don't look very happy.

It's okay girl - things are almost back to normal.

Now no scratching at that ear - ya' hear???

[Karen]

Oh, goodness, if looks could kill, both you and the camera would be a little pile of dust by now!

Kisses to Yodie!

I'm so glad she got the collar off. Hermes is the same way he has to clean himself after the cone comes off.

Yeah, she's got Puddy beat in the dirty looks dept. As for not scratching at the ear, too late. She already has that spot above her eye rubbed raw again. As much as I hate to do it, if I see her clawing at the ear, the collar goes back on. Maybe she'll get the connection then. Right now she's still in the basement checking things out. It's as though she's in a new house saying "Hmm, this looks familiar." LOL

The first picture without the collar she looks like she's thinking - ok, now what are you going to do to me??

It must be such a relief without that darn collar. But Miss Yodie, just remember, if you bother your ear or eye it's going to go right back on!!

[Catty1]

She probably hasn't been able to give herself an all-over grooming for a long time and is catching up!

Is there some numbing salve you could put above her eye so she can't feel it? Then maybe she would leave it alone. Better than the collar!

Welcome back, Yodie Yodie!

Hi, Yodie, pretty girl! I am so happy that you got your collar off and you are healing well! Gentle *kiss* to you from me!

[3Catcondo]

Yodie, good job on getting your collar off. Hopefully it's all uphill from here on out. Sending love your way!

[Medusa]

She's avoiding me like the plague. When her collar was on, she'd be right behind me as I went upstairs to bed. I just now tucked everyone in and she ran from me. She's so afraid I'm going to put that thing back on her. LOL

[krazyaboutkatz]

I'm glad to hear that she was finally able to get rid of her collar. Now hopefully she'll be a good girl and will take her meds and stop scratching herself raw. She's probably associating you with the meds so this is why she's avoiding you. I hope that she'll continue to do well. Good luck.
