Tuesday Tribute to Mao's little Testies ;-)

I admit it. I feel ever so slightly sorry for Baby Mao. Today, he has had the worst day of his short life.

It started much like any other - him bouncing around like his usual annoying self, me retaliating with gusto.

Then came the big day out.

Mao was taken to the vet at 8.30 this morning and didn't get home until 5.00!.

Tired, hungry and a little bit sore, he skulked out of the cat box and onto his favourite cushion. That's right, Mao had gone under the knife and had his boy bits removed.

He is still skulking in the corner right now with the human fussing and fawning all over him. She would do better to ignore him and lavish all of her affection on me.

Anyway, Mao has insisted, in between sulking, that I include a tribute to his boy bits. He isn't happy about having had them removed and he wants a record of them so that he can reminisce in times to come. Excuse the graphic picture but Mao can be very insistent! The lyrics are quite nice - Mao took them from Basil the Great Mouse Detective - one of his favourite Disney Films. Ahem.

A TRIBUTE TO MAO'S BOY BITS





You followed me
I followed you
We were like each other's shadows for a while...
Now as you see
This game is through
So although it hurts
I'll try to smile
As I say...


Goodbye, so soon
And isn't this a crime?
We know by now that time knows how to fly
So here's goodbye, so soon
You'll find your separate way
With time so short
I'll say so long
And go...
So soon...
Goodbye!

Baby Mao: *sniff*

Now there's a new meme: Testie Tuesday! But the boycats here could't participate ... we'd have to post on Missing Testies Monday -- with you, Mao! (Sorry, I'm sure you don't think that's too funny right now.)

I'm rambling, but what I really wanted to say was, FEEL BETTER SOON, MAO!

Poor Mao! Could have been worse. I had to stay over at the vet to keep my stinky sister company and then when we got home the next day she wouldn't even play with me! -Riley

At least you don't have a tummy full of stitches. We hope you feel better soon. -Tiki

Sorry Mao, but I had to laugh at that song! I think you will be OK without your little shadow(s). But it is nice of you to say goodbye to them. Hope you feel better soon!

ha ha ha ha snort ha ha ha ha *paws clapping* ha ha ha First the post was awesome (hey, I had mine done and can now laugh at others - never at my pain...) and the tribute hilarious, then I read the Artsy Catsy comment. Now my sides hurt!
I tease cause it didn't happen to me this time! Mommy did the laser thing too so I could come home and have no stiches.

Dear Mao, in all seriousness, it is good you had this done. I really hope you feel better soon.

Such levity in the face of this horrible event is distressing - let us not make light of the loss of Mao's naughty bits. Please extend to Mao my sincere condolences.

I have a serious look on my face,

Poor Mao. He will quickly get over it though. I don't miss my boy bits at all! Mao, you'll be feeling fine in a day or two.

Yao-lin, my mom is chuckling at the song!

Unknown said...

Get Well soon, Mao! We ashamedly admit that this was tooooo funny! Hee Hee!

Unknown said...

Poor Mao! We hopes you feel better soon! (And we're sorry that a song was made up about your hoohahectomy...we're not laughing AT you, we're laughing WITH you!

I feel Mao's pain. More accurately, I felt his pain many years ago after my own hoo-hah-ectomy.

Stay strong, Mao. It's all for the best. I just hope that, before the anaesthesia, they didn't tell you to "lie back and think of England."

Okay. I will just be quiet.

Don't feel bad, Mao. All us guys have been through the same thing. After a day or two, you'll feel better.

Audace and Ruse send their sympathies to Mao. They recovered just fine, as did their mommy when she had her lady parts removed (but her recovery was a bit longer). It won't be long before Mao is back to normal.
