B*gg*r.

Just spent the day at horse spittal. Vernon has snapped his achilles
tendon in his left foot and done some sort of strain of his right
foot.
He is now at home with a temporary cast on his left foot and using a
'zimmer frame' to walk. Currently he is on the sofa with his feet
*up* having a much-needed snooze.

I've got to get him back to horse spittal on Tuesday morning, first
thing, to attend fracture clinic to see What Happens Next.

B*gg*r.

And there I am imagining something strange and perhaps unfortunate in a
slap-stick comedy sort of way event involving a feline / equine saliva
interaction.

Purrs to Vernon and his poor ankles.
