UH HUH I REALLY DID IT THIS TIME!

Well....my day had an interesting start. My morning was going as it always does - eating my breakfast, cuddling up with my Mamma, and playing with my brothers and sisters....and on that note, I'm going to be very very careful from now on when it comes to running around the house. I didn't think much of what could happen when I was chasing my sister Pumpkin around and around the housse and out in the yard, but boy I tell you what....I'm not going to be doing that again for awhile. While chasing my sister out in the yard I accidentally knocked my head off of either the water facet out in the yard or of the side of the house (my memory is a bit fuzzy about the details) but I ended up hitting my head so hard that my right eye popped out of its socket. My Mamma and my human sister Julie rushed me to the animal hospital where the doctors tried to save my eye but couldn't. There was so much damage to the nerves that they ended up removing my eye and sewing the eyelid shut. And as if to add insult to injury they shaved my bum as well, for what I can tell as for no apparent reason! I really scared my poor Mamma today, and now she won't let me out of her sight! I'll be fine though, as I keep telling Mamma, so don't worry too much. Heck, it's not like I'm completely blind! I still have the left one, so the younger brats in the house shouldn't get any ideas about pulling a fast one on me! I'll take a snap at them like I always do! I'm more worried about my Mamma right now then anything....she's been through alot this year so I'm gonna try to behave myself from now on! Well, wish me luck! Hopefully tomorrow won't be as "exciting" as today....I could do with a boring day for a change!
