Last month. We were hanging out
on a deck, when Goro spotted something.
A bee! Oh, no!
It happened too fast. Before I could stop him (I
really feel bad that I couldn't,) Goro whapped it.
We checked his paw. Good, no stinger.
But one nap later, we found...
Gasp --- OK...don't worry. I know what to do.
Go panic!
Kidding, I called vet (in panic mode.) Goro got
treatment and swelling was gone by next day.
He isn't the only one who went to hospital.
I recently had surgery. Missed my boys during
stay at hospital, but it wasn't all bad because...
Goro gave me a video call.
(His Dad helped him, I think!)
After my return from hospital,
Niko made me welcome-home biscuits :-)
Glad I could come home before September 22.
That day, we celebrated Goro's 5th Gotcha Day.
Though there were some scary moments (like
bee sting!) it's been such wonderful 5 years.
My dear son, Goro. You bring us smile and
happiness every single day. We love you and
thank you so much for coming into our life!
happiness every single day. We love you and
thank you so much for coming into our life!

ReplyDeleteHappy Gotcha Day Goro, you are very special. I am sure happy to hear that you are both okay now.
ReplyDeleteSuch a wonderful post...
ReplyDeleteHappy Happy Birthday Goro !
This is were I usually say
Let There Be Cake"
but in your case
"Let There Be Chicken Hearts"
I am sad about your paw but if anyone can look so handsome with a swollen paw it is you.
Tell your Mum I posted about her blog on my blog last Wednesday.
I remember she was going to be away for awhile but I didn't know it was for an surgery. Glad to know your both fine.
cheers, parsnip
Hi Tamago-san Good Morning from Japan;
ReplyDeleteHappy Goro-chan's 5th Gotcha Day♡♡♡ I can see how your boys brought happiness to your life♬♬♬
Goro-chan, you must have felt terrible for the bee bite. I'm happy to know that the swell got healed soon. Surprised with the swell, my boy.
Tamago-san, how is your condition, my young Japanese friend. Please do not push yourself with your husband's help until you get perfectly better.
Sending Lots of Love and Hugs from Japan to my Dear Japanese friend in America, xoxo Miyako*
Hope your surgery recovery has gone well! Can't believe how swollen Goro's paw got; I'd have freaked out too! Glad he's all better now.
ReplyDeleteHappy 5th Gotcha Day, Goro! Minnie's paw swelled up just like yours when she tried to play with a wasp! We hope you are feeling better and we're glad your family was together to celebrate :) purrs,
ReplyDeletePip, Smidgen, Minnie, Hollie
Happy Gotcha Day, Goro! Y'know, I once got stung by a bee too...just like you, my paw swelled up. But I didn't hafta go to the vet. The mom called them and they told her to watch me and that I would probably be okay...and I was. I'm glad you're okay. And we're glad your mom is okay too. ~Wally
ReplyDeleteDearest Tamago,
ReplyDeleteOh my, that swollen paw would have panicked me too. One never knows if they would be allergic to bee stings, just like some people are!
The video call from Goro made me almost choke up; so sweet. Guess now Pieter would know how to handle that via his iPhone and that sure would have been lovely to see them while being in the hospital. We do MISS our babies while we're gone. Yes we love them all the way. We had a great time with our best friends from 3:15 - 7:15 PM and we ate a great meal, I provided the Thai Tom Yam Koeng soup with shrimps for that. But we felt guilty since our 6 babies had late supper instead of their usual 5:00 PM feeding.
But all is happy now and that makes for a perfect day's ending.
You rest up and get well soon. Love your post; above all because our kitten love is mutual.
Hugs,
Mariette
I had a kitty get stung by a wasp and his foot looked just like that.
ReplyDeleteHappy Anniversary, may you have many many more
Happy gotcha day, Goro! I'm glad that bee sting healed so quickly! And I hope your human is all recovered from her surgery.
ReplyDeleteHappy gotcha day, sweet Goro! We are so glad you were gotcha'd into such a wonderful and loving forever family!
ReplyDeleteWe are glad your bee sting got better, and we wish Mom Tamago a speedy and complete recovery.
Oh my dear boy Goro, so glad that your paw swelling went down quickly, that must have been scary to see. We wish you a very Happy Gotcha Day! Sorry to hear that your Mom was in the hospital and are glad she is back home now, sending much love and healing purrs to her for a complete recovery with ease. Niko, we love the biscuits you made for her upon her return! Have a wonderful week everyone!
ReplyDeleteThe bee sting is so scary! His paw was huge! So glad he is alright now. Are you alright now? I did not know you were in the hospital.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Goro. We had a similary experience with our other cat getting stung on the paw. Hope you are recovering well.

ReplyDeleteLevei um susto quando vi sua pata inchada, o Galileu foi picado por uma abelha quando era menor, mas graças a Deus não ficou inchado assim. Goro você é muito carinhoso, tenho certeza que isso ajudou a sua mamãe a ter uma boa recuperação.
Love you Goro. Glad the swelling is over. Hope your Mom gets to feeling better. Healing purrz.
ReplyDeleteHappy 5th Gotcha day to Goro and you! Wow, how scary that must of been; I'm so glad you got him to the vet and he wasn't too hurt. (Yay!). :-) As for you, I'm hoping (and wishing) that you feel better ASAP! And that your little boys help you get well!!
ReplyDeleteHugs & congratulations on your gotcha day with Mr. Goro!

Oh my goodness! Poor little sweetie with the puffed up paw! I'm glad that nasty bee did not sting you on your sweet little nose and I'm glad the swelling went down the next day.
ReplyDeleteAnd I sure hope mom is OK after spending time in the hospital - not fun! But fun to get a video chat on your ipad from kitties! Haha - cute!
And wishing you a very Happy Gotcha Day Goro!
Sending many hugs and kisses from Banjo and I!
