because his mom was totally irresponsible last night. I finished cooking a pork roast last night at 3 am and shredded it up and put it in the fridge. Then I took Vito and Odin and we went to bed. At 6 am I let Vito out of the bedroom to have his breakfast and so Odin could eat his. They are never together unsupervised and they eat separately. Vito then scratched at the bedroom door a little later and I let him in and we went back to bed. Then I got up at 3 pm to get ready for my 12 hr night shift and started to get my lunch ready. I quickly realized that I hadn't thrown out the strings from the roast and one was missing!!!!
I am sooooooo pissed at myself. I cannot believe I forgot to clean up something like that. I know better. I am 99% sure Vito ate it because I cannot find it anywhere, I even went through the trash. I dont think Odin got at it as I have yet to see him on the kitchen counter and he was not out of the bedroom unsupervised at all. I panicked. I called my dad (a former vet). He said hopefully it will come up as a hairball...LMAO DAD! My cats dont have hair!! (He lives on the other side of the country and has never met them). Then he asked if I had any Petromalt. Again, Dad, they have no hair!!!! He said because it is not like sewing thread it should pass.
I called my Vet, I know what to watch for but I was so upset. They said what to watch for, no new info there. Called my Vet tech to see if Vito could sleep over with her, but she is looking after someone elses dog so she couldn't. My best friend was too sick to come and stay and her house is not safe for kitties, too much to get into.
Neighbour across the hall wasnt home, and Im freaking out. Vito needs supervision and I CANNOT MISS WORK!!! Call emerg clinic, they said I would need to have both cats examined and then admitted totalling $400 for one night nevermind tomorrow night. I need to save the money for potential emerg surg....Still freaking out.
I call my friend Alicia, no answer. Im going to be late to work.....What am I going to do?!! So I called my friend Ely who works in the same building as me, but works M-F days. I dropped Vito off there and he was immediately bombarded my her Shih Tzu and 6 month old Terrier pup who has never seen a cat. He cuddled with her on the couch and ate his supper about 3 hours early. He didn't eat with gusto or like he was starving as he usually does, but who could blame him? Hes in a strange place with strange dogs. He will sleep in their living room as she doesnt want him to share her bed, her dogs dont either.
Then my friend Alicia called back so she came and got my keys and will check in on Odin shortly. I am sooo nervous. I am almost 100% sure Odin had nothing to do with it. I feel sooooo irresponsible. I have been so diligent about Odin that I wasn't about Vito. To top it off, Odin killed my iPhone charger this morning, he dug it out from under my pillow and chomped it, less than 12 hours after his sister did the same thing to her moms headphones....lol
Anyway, good vibes for the string to turn up intact somewhere naturally. I gave him some coconut oil to grease the wheel, but Im still terrified. I keep thinking of poor Cleo and her vet bill.
Thanks for listening
