As Promised... Pansy Picspam!

A somewhat abbreviated Pansy update with some new photos (along with some Ari thrown in for good measure)...

Pansy was spayed a couple of weeks back. (And huge, huge thanks again to drinkingcocoa for her assistance!) She was remarkably chill about the whole experience. Didn't make a peep in the carrier or car, and when I picked her up in the evening, she was just hanging out in her carrier among the many, many just-spayed-or-neutered cats in carriers. (One of said cats was very angry and wanted everyone to know it, b'god. He was rattling his cage and taking swipes at anyone who came near. LOL)

The vet's instructions: Feed her half what she normally eats that night and restrict her to light activity for seven to ten days. My response: AHAHAHAHAHA, RIGHT!

The first thing Pansy did when we got home was eat all the food I gave her, then go eat most of the roommate's cat's food, then go eat some of Ari's. After that, she proceeded to spend the next two hours gleefully batting her mousie around the apartment. (Honestly, how is one supposed to restrict a kitten's activity without the use of strong sedatives and/or duct tape?!)

I kept a close eye on her incision site, but she healed up jut fine. She clearly wasn't bothered by the experience at all. She was so unbothered, as a matter of fact, that she was voluntarily playing inside the cat carrier the day after her surgery. ::shakes head:: Either she shares some characteristics with simple dog, or she figures she has loads of lives left.

Oh, and at the time of her spaying (at just under six months old), she was 6.4 pounds. :)

Anyway, the long-awaited new pics:

I Should Definitely NOT Be Doing This

...but I'm feeling what is no doubt an excessive amount of optimism after getting so many little things caught up tonight, and it's just such a cool idea...

This entire post/idea is totally ripped off from woldy, by the way. Credit/blame her. :P

Actually, it would seem that The Why We Broke Up Project is largely to blame. I clicked on woldy's link and discovered that this site is a disturbingly addictive little time-suck. And I might not have been able to resist putting in a "story" of my own.

Anyway! This site led to a meme. Wording stolen directly from woldy:

Give me a pairing, and I'll tell you something about the reasons, circumstances, or consequences of their breakup.

Answers will be 1-2 sentences. It should go without saying that if you never want to imagine your OTP breaking up, then don't give me that pairing to write about.

And my own rules/addendums:
1. Let's keep it to HP or Tin Man this time so as not to strain my already overworked brain.
2. I reserve the right to also potentially write something about how they made up, 'cause I'm a sucker like that sometimes, although I promise to keep the happy endings to a minimum. ;D
3. I make no guarantees that these will all get written. Refer back to not straining my brain excessively. But I am hoping this'll be good as a writing kick-starting exercise. :)
