My mum often use this expression when something really good happens: It’s better than striking a lottery!
Well, it certainly is better than striking the lottery right now, because….
Joanie pee-ed!!
Yes, she did.
About half an hour ago, I fed her some coconut water again, and after that, as she was lying on my lap, I told her that she must pee, or else we would have to go to hospital again, and I cannot drive because my ankle still hurts.
Then, I went to take my bath and when I re-entered the room, I saw her in an unusual position, with her two front paws balanced on the side of the litter tray (which she uses as her basket). Then, I went closer and saw she was actually squating (with some help) and defecating. I kept very still, and said, “good girl, good girl…”
There was a lot of poo. Then I said, “ok, Joanie, after this, you must pee as well, ok? please….you must try…”
Then, she stopped. And she went down further into a lower squating position and and stayed for what seemed “a long time”.
When she moved again, to get out of the litter tray, she flicked off some water from her feet, and there it was, folks – the whole tray was filled with pee…glorious pee!
Whoosh….as Yasmin Ahmad would say, “pee also got charisma!”
I don’t remember ever feeling so happy cleaning up cat pee and poo, all in the same tray. Well, with the exception of cleaning Vixey’s poo because Vixey suffers from constipation!
As mum would say, “it sure is better than striking a lottery!”
I’m so, so glad…..
