Doctor Mudpie, At Your Service...

Meows from Mudpie!

You're probably wondering why I'm wearing a surgical mask today. 


Well, Mommy has a bit of a surgical procedure coming up. She has something called a pyogenic granuloma on her lip. After getting a referral to a plastic surgeon, she's having it removed on December 4. Thankfully it's a very simple procedure that takes less than an hour, and after it's removed she'll be stitched up and sent back home to me. (I hope it doesn't prevent her from kissing me a million times per day!)

The funny thing is, a number of times in the past month I've put my paw on it or licked around it while we've been cuddling. It's really been bugging me. Mommy has something on her face...why isn't she taking it off??? I wouldn't let it stay there if it was on MY face! 

Then I started thinking...I have some pretty sharp claws, why don't I remove it here at home and save Mommy's insurance some money? My services are much cheaper - my fee is only 25 packages of squeezies. Doesn't that sound like a good deal to you?

Now hold still, Mommy. Hope this thing doesn't bleed too much...

    Mudpie, maybe you would be a better nurse than a surgeon. What a thing for mommy to have to go through between Thanksgiving and Christmas. But you will be there to oversee everything and we know it will all work out for both of you. Precious and I are still trying to get our minds wrapped around the fact that Thanksgiving is this week.

    Mudpie, your mom smooches you like mine does me. I just KEEP rumpled headie furs! Now I agree with your friend Precious. Your skills as a nurse are unparalleled. Let the surgeon do his job. XXXX

    I think looking after your mum when she comes home would be a big job and
    the squeezies are a suitable payment for your excellent services!

    Mudpie, humans are funny when it comes to medical stuff. While I am sure that your Vet is pawsome, humans better stick to human doctors even if they are not as cool as animal doctors ;)

    Purrayers that your Mmmy's surgery goes well ! Our huMom has had two minor surgeries since June, and she says "minor" surgery is when it happens to somebody else. So please be gentle with her !
