9 Lives

Yes I know my last blog was about Miss Jane, but oh well. Friday, little miss thing, decided to try and fly or something.

My friend Tiffany was at my apt all day watching TV b/c she only has a few channels through the cable boxes and I have basic cable (free!!!!!!) so she didn't want to lounge at her place all day with nothing to do. She left around 4p to go take care of some things before she went to work for the night. My roommate and I got home from work around 5:15. With in that hour Mary Jane had decided she had enough with my apartment and took a dive. I came in and she usually greats me at the door so I started to look for her. I looked in my room, bathroom and closet. No where. I looked in my roommates room and bathroom. Still no kittie. Kitchen. Nope. So I went on my balcony and called for her. I could hear her so Jose, the new roommate, got up and looked on the roof because I have caught her trying to maneuver up there before. Nope. The only other place would be 3 stories down. We went to the back and started looking for her. We could hear her but couldn't see her. She was hiding in some weeds behind my apt. I picked her up and she instantly clung to me. Poor girl.

I really don't know if she jumped or not because I had Maggie for the weekend while Michele and Rich were in Osborne. I figure they were just playing and some how Mary Jane ended up on the ground 3 stories lower. I have been in my apt for over a year and she has never tired to jump off the balcony.

Once inside she went straight to hide under my bed. She couldn't keep her eyes open and it began to really worry me. Of course it had to happen after all but the ER vet offices were closed. I had put pressure on her belly and pulled on her legs to see if she would react and she didn't but I still couldn't risk it.

I took her in and the vet by the name of Susan Weis took care of her. She said all she had was a scratch on her gums and that she was a VERY lucky little girl. They gave her a little pain shot and she was off to rest at home. She is doing fine now and is moving and shaking like nothing ever happened. I think it knocked a little bitchyness out of her because she has been pleasant since! What would I do with out my girl?
