Paws Up: A Rest from Caretaker Duties

The Human is still hacking and spitting and shuddering and sleeping fretfully and whining and standing under the hot shower at 2:00 a.m., but today? 
Well, today, she's just having to do it all without my assistance. This Good Boy stuff is exhausting! 

Thanks to everyone who keeps leaving good wishes in spite of the fact that the Human hasn't helped me visit in, I dunno--like elebenty weeks, or four days, or something. We hope to be back soon. Meanwhile? Zzzzzzzzzzzzzz.....

I'm first???

You must be exhausted, Spitty! Maybe when your human *finally* gets well, she will reward you with Cheez-Its.

Aw, poor Spitty. Playing nursemaid is hard work. You really do deserve a break We hope your human is better soon...for your sake.

Your human needs to get well soon or the ladies of the blogosphere are going to go into Spitty withdrawal!

Stacy Hurt said...

Dear Spitty Mom, Get well soon, I can hardly stand listening to the whining from Ol' Snittycat!

Poor Spitty. It's the hardest on us when the humans are sick isn't it. We're expected to be nursemaid, cook, cleaner, and a cat all at once. I feel for you buddy. Hope your human gets well quick or we'll have to give you oxygen to bring you to life.,

It looks like you are surviving Spitty

Cathy Keisha said...

I don't mean to pressure you or your human Spitty but you missed a really funny post over at my place yesterday. If the human doesn't start feeling better, she best call the doctor. meanwhile, I'll teleport over and we can go out cos I don't wanna bring any of those germans home with me.

Angel Prancer Pie said...

Heh heh, we're laughin at CK's post bout germs!

We think you're doing a "bang-up" job, Spitster. We've always heard that humans are like rubber bands and always snap back! MOL!

Spitty, you must be utterly exhausted from all that hard work!

MizzBassie said...

Awwww, sending Healing purrrrrrrrrrrrrrs to your poor human. I hope she gets better soon so you can get some rest.

Angel Simba said...

We are just very appreciative that your human has a little strength to wield the camera, Spitty. That way we get to still see your gorgeousness. Healing purrs coming her way.

Dearest Spitty,
Remember, all good things come to those cats who coddles their ill human. Yous could end up with lots of tasty delectables.
Kisses

We hope your mom is feeling better soon. Our mom was sick for two weeks and is finally starting to feel a little better.

The Furries of Whisppy said...

Poor Spitty. Would you like me to come over and help you look after your Human? I just need to keep giving her biteys, right? :p

This is indeedy taking a long time. You are suffering a marathon, King Spitty!

I am glad you are resting, Spitty. You do not want to over do it and end up sick like your mom! I do hope she will be better soon though. She must be awfully tired of feeling so icky :(

CATachresis said...

Good ol' Spitster! Reverting to type :) Poor mom, though. She might need just a little more TLC. Do you think you could hang in there just a bit longer. After all I believe it is she who fetches the noms and treats from the store!!!!!! ;)

Katie Isabella said...

Spitty, how did we get suckered into doing all the nursing? I feel your pain Spitty Boy...I am in shreds from nursing duries too although to be fair, I am now on very light duty. I hope YOU will be too as I know your mom has really REALLY been thru it. xoxoxox to you both.

Unknown said...

Spitty you have to be so tired... just a little bit more of caring buddy... and you'll have her standing alone. Hang-in-there-buddy!

Marg said...

Oh gosh, Spitty, we did not know that the human was sick. Our Person is soooooooooo slack. We are sending a gazillion purrs that she feel better really soon. We have instructed the donkey to cross their hooves too. Now that is serious stuff. So feel better Human. Take care.

meowmeowmans said...

Caretaking and being a god boy IS hard work, Spitty. We sure hope you have a good easy, and that the human is all better real soon.

Anonymous said...

yes. tell her to hurry. i ask a verrah important question on my bloggie and I am just SURE you are teh expert i need.
but you should also do the Good Boy thing for just a little while longer. sounds like she still needs you. also, it would help with that potential Pope position you've been coveting. and also, she may not remember to feed you, ever, unless you do. good lucks.

Cat and DOG Chat With Caren said...

we sooooooo understand! You BOTH need your rest!
xoxoxo

Pat Hatt said...

Humans can be very demanding, you deserve a break.

Seville at Nerissa's Life said...

Oh Spitty... it's Sunday! On Sundays you've just GOTTA do the easy. You've just gotta. Your mom will understand. purrs

Unknown said...

A day of rest is just what the doctor would order. That goes for you and your mom, and I hope you are both back to good health very soon.

Hailey and Zaphod and their Lady said...

Our human hasn't let us visit either. We feel your pain. Lee and Phod

I hope that when you wake up Spitty she is some better!

Cory said...

Spitty, we are late in sending healing purrs to your human. We know you can hold out just a little longer being a good boy.

Andrea and the Celestial Kitties said...

We feel so bad for your human! She must have a seriously bad case of that nasty ol' flu!
I understand you taking a break, sweet Spitty, but don't leave her alone too long ok? Let her pet you and give you treats at least a little bit..
