I am not feeling so good. I have not been well and I wish I can run around again. You see, I get sick whenever the seasons change. I have no idea why that is. My favorite human takes really good care of me. She makes sure she keeps the floors clean, her sheets are changed often (I love getting on her bed, see), and she tries her best to make sure I don't get entangled in grassy places outside -- she insists that's where those nasty ticks and other bugs are.
Summer was incredibly hot. Jyoti and I stayed indoors during the day and only went out in the middle of the night when the air becomes a little cooler. We normally have disagreements and who gets the best spot near the room cooler but our humans decided to move the dining table to give everyone more room.
My skin gets all red and itchy when seasons change. The moment the rainy season was about to start, the itchiness got much worse. My favorite human tried her best to make me feel better. She gives me allergy medicine hidden in treats to stop the itching. She also soaked my paws (because they itch, too) in soothing tea made from guava leaves -- feels sooooo good. But, last week, things started to get much worse.
I started feeling sooooo sleepy. And nothing seems to taste right. Our humans got really worried and the man with the needles was called -- they call him Vet. Thank goodness he did not stick me with any needles this time. But I saw him give our my favorite human a shiny strip with round things inside it. And there was a dark colored bottle too.
The round powdery stuff that the humans sneak into my food smells funny. I heard one of them call it antibiotics. They keep telling me the stuff will make me all better. Then they make me drink that brown liquid that they call a tonic. It smells and tastes okay but I don't feel like eating or drinking.
They also give me this yummy chicken water which I kind of like. I really don't feel like eating or drinking and my favorite human looks so worried. Last night I had half a banana and some rice. I tried to eat some of that watery oatmeal she gave me this morning and she seemed to think I did good. She keeps telling me to drink water but I just don't feel like it.
I know they worry about me so I do hope I get to feel better really soon. I miss playing around. Today, they took the car out and I could not even jump in to smell the seats! I used to love doing that. :(
