    Take it easy! Focus on your recovery. Please don't get down on the floor if that causes you pain. Todd definitely understands ouch. He needs to be patient until you are healed.

    Take it easy Dad, we heal much quicker outside than we do inside and you don’t want scar tissue to impede your successful healing. Todd looks a little confused but he’ll get over it and adapt while you heal, he’s a very smart cat, you’ll just have to keep telling him ouch. Take care👍🏼🙋🏼‍♀️

    Those grabbers are a life saver. I discovered them in PT after breaking my femur years ago. As far as the brush - "The things we do for Love...."

    • @DT-no2uk
      @DT-no2uk День назад +22

      I thought the same thing, I have hurt my spine ans part of EDS and have pain 24/7 but I still do things that hurt or that I should not do for my cats. I love them and important, me is all they have to make life nice for them so I better do a good job. I hope your femur healed in a good way.

    • @impunitythebagpuss
      @impunitythebagpuss День назад +15

      Lol...grabbers in every room! And, yes, even though my back is crumbling with arthritis, I still do stuff for (and with) my furfolk that causes me pain! Better living through pharmaceuticals!

    • @deed5811
      @deed5811 День назад +15

      I have long used grabbers because I'm short and get sick of dragging a step stool around for things just out of reach. They are very useful!

    @Terri_MacKay День назад +28

    Oh, you were taking those stairs mighty slow, Dad. And 3 ouches cant be good. Take it easy, and focus on healing. Todd knows that something is wrong right now, he'll understand if you aren't able to interact with him right now the way that you usually do. It's amazing how empathetic our cats can be when we're not feeling our best. ❤️❤️

      If you can get down on the floor and then get up again, you can live independently. If you can't, that is cause for concern.

    • @akinpaws
      @akinpaws День назад +4

      As a general rule, but not applicable to Todd's Dad, as this is his post surgery mobility not his regular condition, and he doesn't live alone.

      @Ann963 21 час назад +1

      @@Ariadne76-k3d yes, it is good that he *can* get down and back up again (like you said, as a safety concern), but as he is currently recovering from surgery, it may not be the best idea to do it too much.
      Besides, doesn’t he live with another human or two? I don’t remember. I hope so, at least while he is recovering to have someone taking care of things. ❤

    It’s interesting how much cats can know …. And not know at the same time. He shows he understands you with some of the phrases but he won’t get up on the chair. 😂. Maybe putting a treat up there ? Hope and prayers for a speedy recovery.

    Good Evening from Edinburgh to you all.
    I love the connection you hsve with Todd he is beautiful im just mew, to having a kitten but what i can also say is why did it take. Me so long to find the love of a cat what a beautiful experience now im questioning why it took till this stage in my life to not be scared of cats, i mean i was terrified as a child, i learned it wasn't my fear and my b/,f he hsd a dog and this dog was so clever helped me connect thsts was over 40 year's ago now , and now ive lived a life i have been very fortunate from racing pigeons to a ferret dog's birds , there was 1 cat , but she went to live with my neighbkur thst was 30 years ago, i was thinking maybe i wasn't ready to fully appreciate, the love from a cat, now, my grandson, cause hes really my sins kitten, but he loves to sit with me even at my feet its cold down there , im really new to cats, but i know gow to love and connect now, instead of them judt being in the background so to speak, I cannot believe it took me 57 years to feel the purring how healing is thst im in awe, and ready trying to trsin him wheb i play with him i will say words i believe their Angels and so much smarter than we gave them credit for , my dogs have been awesome, and i know this wee kittens Awesome to
    Thanks for sharing
    Blessings to you and yours

  • @Robinwhiteart
    @Robinwhiteart День назад +13

    Todd's Dad, Be Careful! Do not let your pride and love for Todd interfere with your healing. Any surgery takes longer to heal from, and is more painful, than any doctor is willing to be truthful about! Even worse for sensitive people who can love their fur families the way you do! Find a way to sit, if that is even possible, to do things with Todd. Explain why, to Todd, in simple words--he will understand. The future and getting to it quickly but in a healthy way is what is important now! Truly the best of luck.

  • @cherieodell9048
    @cherieodell9048 День назад +6

    Glad you're home. I know Todd well enough by watching so many of the videos that I can tell that he's worried and he is really focused on what's going on with you. Our cat is an orange tabby mix and is typically uninterested in what's going on. But if you're sick or sad or stressed out he's like a barometer and comes right in. I imagine that all of Todd's alarm bells are going off. God bless you for what you've done with him and may recovery be Swift and your healing sure. Doc

    Cats have staff, dogs have masters. Todd has you trained (in a good way). I think if Todd was your surgeon and he gave you post op instructions, he would have told you to take it easy, but to keep moving ( when he wants you too 🤣). Speedy recovery, hope you feel better soon.

    Glad you are able to walk up the stairs. After open heart surgery it was about one year before I could go upstairs without help. Usually a push from the rear. Always made my husband laugh! 🤣 Then I graduated to hands and feet. Eventually I could stand upright as I climbed. About two years in total. Now I only resort to using my hands when I am very tired. Recoveries are very slow processes, be patient with yourself! Best of luck!

    My cat who loved being brushed more than almost anything else had designated brushing spots. They were all about waist height and his favorite was the low shelving in front of his cat tv window. Cat tv is the big apple tree out back with lots of wildlife living in it. We tapped the blanket on top of the shelves with his comb or brush and he would rush up there for grooming with an excited trill. I’m sure it wouldn’t take long to do something similar with Todd. Maybe his mom can help plop him on a raised surface the first couple times, but the positive reinforcement will be so strong and he is so smart that he’ll learn fast. You’ll just have to pick spots where he feels stable enough to flop and roll.
