I've felt so much better these past few days. Turtle has done me the favor of NOT going up under the bed. So no "awkward"moments...
I started to wean myself off the pain medication and today was the first day I was totally drug-free. Turtle is still on duty and is at my side 24/7. When I sit or lay down she curls up next to me and just watches me. If she feels a cat nap coming on she always put her paw on my leg or arm so she'll wake up if I move.
Is this the same "aloof" kitty that came to live with me a few months ago? She's one Turtle that finally came out of her shell!!











I've enjoyed reading about Nurse Turtle and the special bond you two share.
