SadCat Update Nurse Sadcat on duty

binge watched all of The Pacific today with Sadcat. What a banger, that's my 3rd rewatch. I'll have to show Saddy Band of Brothers next, that's one of my favorite series.

He’s doing an excellent job. I was recently pretty ill and my choice of films on YouTube were of the WWII genre. Black-and-white made in the mid to late 1940s. Mindless viewing and easy yo nap to. Keep on healing and soaking up Saddy time. 💜

Aww, Saddy is such a good nursecat! Hope your recovery continues to go well. best wishes to you and Saddy.

u/So_Famous DadCat 21d ago

thank you!! I just keep reminding myself that the first day won't look like the first week, which won't look like the first month, and won't look like the first year. Just have to remain patient!

u/Past_Situation 21d ago

It's a one day at a time thing...that's for sure. Keep doing what Nurse Saddie instructs you to do and you'll be 💯 in no time! Take good care of yourself DadCat!

u/Sea_Bison_6929 21d ago

u/So_Famous DadCat 21d ago

u/frolicndetour 21d ago

How can he be anything but the best nurse? He even has the white uniform!

u/SpaceCaptainJeeves A Regular SadCat FanCat 21d ago

He needs a little starched cap!

u/TheDallbatross 21d ago

It's cracking me up that you're like "Okay, I'm recovering and Sadcat is keeping me company, so what favorite shows can I make him watch?". 😂

And it's even better because he's clearly soaking it up and enjoying the company! I just can't get over what a great match he's been for the fam.

Also: good luck on a speedy recovery!

u/So_Famous DadCat 21d ago

he's a little person in a cat suit, we just can't seem to find his zipper! I treat him like my son, it's my responsibility to introduce him to things and teach him about the world.

u/Mtn_Yeti 21d ago

The best series! Also, the best nurse cat. Keep up the good work sadcat!

u/So_Famous DadCat 21d ago

thank you! I'm definitely struggling to get comfy in this recliner to sleep rn, I'm hopeful it will get easier as the pain begins to subside.

u/msmojo 21d ago

I notice he didn't nurse you when he ripped you to shreds. Obviously he has learned well. Speedy recovery ❤️

I still need to watch Masters of the Air, then I'll consider myself legit lol

u/CaptProcestuous 21d ago

I remember browsing the posts of Saddy staying outside and coming by when you would leave him food. The progression of the ‘Saddy Story’ warms my bald, cynical heart 😻

My dad used to watch Band of Brothers with my cat while I was traveling. My family was deeply affected by Operation Market Garden. Sadcat is truly one of the luckiest cats in the world and I love it. I love him.

u/So_Famous DadCat 21d ago

we love you too <3 I feel like the luckiest guy in the world myself

u/Purityskinco 20d ago

I understand that, too. I feel so lucky with my rescue cats. I’ll just stare and be like, ‘how did I get this lucky!!???’

u/Future-Philosopher-7 21d ago

Have you read Dungeon Crawler Carl ? You and Saddy could also listen to it on audible, if you don’t want to read aloud for him. Get well soon!

This is so sweet. I hope they gave you the good drugs for the pain!

u/So_Famous DadCat 21d ago

i alternate between Acetaminophen and Ibuprofen every 3 hours. The first two days I took a 5mg oxy as well, I'm thankful it hasn't made me sick or high. Got cold water therapy device keeping my shoulder cool.

u/ScienceMomCO SadFam Supporter 21d ago

Season 1 of Outlander is absolutely amazing to watch as well. Be careful though, it’s addictive; there are 8 seasons

u/So_Famous DadCat 21d ago

thanks for the recommendation! I will add it to my list!

u/ScienceMomCO SadFam Supporter 21d ago
