She likes to go to discos, but she's never on her own

Finally spent a bit of quality alone time with Cassiopeia. She's unbelievably affectionate and lovey when she's not all worried about dogs. She likes to lie on her back and grab at my hands with her paws and have her belly rubbed.

One real big worry though. She has a surprisingly big round belly on that lil' kitten body. And big nipples.

please, please, say it isn't so. vet check up just became a whole lot more urgent.

I was thinking Starbuck was pregnant and rushed her into work last week to get her spayed/aborted. But when I shaved her belly there was what looked like an old spay scar (so maybe shave her tummy and take a look--or at least have the vet do it before putting her under) My doc had me take an x-ray and there were steel spay sutures so I don't have to worry about her being pregnant. She must just be liking what I'm feeding her to get so pudgy so fast.

Though we did find out that she has a bladder infection while examining her....so it was a good thing I took her in anyway.....plus she's now current on all her vaccinations.

well, downstairs neighbour couple have known her all her life and they say she's definitely not spayed yet, nice as that would be.

I suspect this is why the ex-owners dumped her on me this way without so much as a phone call. Wankers. I hope to hell she's not too far along to get spayed anyway. She's not very bulgy and I can't feel distinct shapes in there or anything.

She really does not need to be dealing with kittens on top of everything else at her age.

Well, I know at my hospital they do pregnant spays. So I'd just get her in some place they do them right away.
