Chapter 55
Think of the worms cats can get ... ready? Yup ... every one of those and a few Doc Sandra had never even heard of, let alone seen. Photos for the Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, and the Veterinary Practice News along with notifications sent to The Centers for Disease Control, were faxed every time something new popped out of the shit.
The day came when Kitty was clean.
‘That was awful,’ she thought. ‘Feed me!’
“Lets go see Sandra first,” I said, “She probably knows.”
Kitty weighed in at 7 pounds ... thin as a rail from a split rail fence.
The two had quite the quiet conversation. When they were done confering, Sandy came out carrying a limp Kitty.
“We decided,” she said. “Cold boiled chicken thighs, boned. Cold broiled beef, thoroughly cooked and chilled pork liver. Stick it in a blender and puree it. At six months we’ll see about solid food. She is extremely thin and we want to build her up gently. You know those bodybuilders protein shakes?”
I nodded.
“Put a couple of ounces in the blender. NOT chocolate ... plain.”
“Yes ma’am.”
“Keep a full water dish ... this dishrag is going to be thirsty.”
She gazed fondly at Kitty, “You, young lady, have put my practice on the map. Thank you.”
She put her down. Kitty twined her legs, purring loudly.
She turned to me, “Fifty bucks ... pay at the desk.”
“Are you sure... $50 is pretty cheap.”
“At the desk.”
“How about all the times I brought those specimens in. Sandra ... I have oodles of money.”
“I hear you have a sauna.”
“I do,” it dawned. “Any time. Any time at all.”
“I’ll do that ... and a ride in that monster airplane.”
“Saturday ... make it Saturday. We’ll fly down to the coast and I’ll show you a good time.”
I did ... mostly upside down. She didn’t get sick.
Later, in the sauna; “Ooo ... that was fun!” She said. “Easily the equal of most rollercoasters.”
Doctor Sandra became a regular.
Then she found out about the ultralites.
