Are you in there Hester?

Enid: HESTER?! Where are you? I have a lovely glitter ball to share with you. HESTER?! Red! RED! Where is my sister!!!!?
Me: Enid, Hester is in the hospital since she got stung by wasp.
Enid: Why? I get stung all the time and you don't take me to the hospital. She must be outside. I think you are lying to me.
Me: Enid. I would not lie to you. She is at the hospital.
Enid: Liar!

Hours later
Enid: Hester! Where have you been?!
Hester: Sigh. I went to the hospital.
Enid: You are such a fibber just like Red. You must have gotten outside OR Red hid you in one of the cabinets. I looked everywhere for you.
Hester: I was at the hospital! I swear!
Enid: Nuh-uh. By the way you smell funny. Did you go to the hospital?
Hester: Sigh. I love you Enid.

Doctor report - He said I got her in just in time. They shaved her paw and looked for the stinger but found nothing. At one point he wasn't so sure it was a wasp and kind questioned me on the phone (I understand doubt). I told him I knew it was a wasp since Enid promptly ate it. Enid loves their crunchiness. So she is home and I have to monitor for the rest of the evening for any problems. The vets told me there should be no problem what-so-ever. :D

  5. Whew, thank goodness it all turned out okay...I didn't see the earlier post which saved me worrying about Hester all day (I know, I obsessively worry not only about my own cats but everyone else's cats too...!)

    Please give both girls a big kiss from their Auntie Hyacinths...my kitties are sending purrs, knowing how awful it is to visit the v-e-t!

  8. We are very happy Hester is OK. Kisses and hugs from the boys. P.S. Albert said he'd be very happy to open a can of Whoop A** on those stupid wasps. No one hurts his IBKC family and gets away with it!!
