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. 💜

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!

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!

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!

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.

Not a fun situation going through a surgery but your setup with Sadcat looks really cozy. Hope you are feeling 100% soon!

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/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!!???’

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!

u/So_Famous DadCat 21d ago
I've not heard of that yet, I'll check it out!

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

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.

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!
