I’ve been feeling pretty weird the last couple of days. First, Mum and Dad and Kaya took me far away to a strange place, then LEFT me there! How rude. Kaya seemed to think that it was all in good fun and that it was to do with something about being sprayed with water (which I really like!), so I wasn’t too worried about it to start with. But then they put me in a cage and pricked me with sharp things and I don’t really remember much after that. It definitely wasn’t anything to do with water so I don’t know where Kaya got that idea from!
I do remember waking up and going home in the car with Mum and Dad, then crashing out on the bed on the floor at home. The next day I think I just slept a lot, I remember Mum offering me some food – yum! – but then when it came down to it, the thought of eating it made me feel a bit queasy so I just left it.
That was yesterday though and today I’m feeling lots better! Better enough to head to the front yard and have some outside time in the fresh air.

Usually when Mum comes out in the front yard with us it means playtime, so I went and grabbed a stick.

Kaya seemed to think we should be lying down and just chilling out though, so that’s what I did too.

After not very long though, I didn’t even feel like chewing the stick anymore, so I let Kaya have it.

For some reason I just feel so serious today! Not like playing or running around or making silly faces or being stalked by Kaya and then doing zoomies. I tried to work out why and couldn’t, so I asked Mum.

Mum explained that it was because I just had an ‘operation’ – that’s what all the wooziness and sleeping lots and not feeling like eating was about. She said I had to have the ‘operation’ so that I didn’t have to wear pants any more and it meant I couldn’t ever have puppies. Which is fine with me!
I’ve noticed my stomach has felt really strange ever since the ‘operation’, but apparently it’s just part of the whole thing (and I have to leave it alone or it won’t get better).

I can’t wait to get back to normal. In the meantime though, Kaya seems to understand and it’s kind of nice change just hanging out together in the front yard, being serious.

Maybe I could even be serious more often! But Mum says no, even though it’s easier to take photos of me when I am like this, she wants her bouncy happy silly little-big puppy back again, so I have to work hard at being quiet and serious so I can get better soon!
