He has been unlucky hasn't he - not two years old yet! <br /><br />That soft crate is wonderful (Pet Planet) - when she has to go to the vet, I just take it along so she's in her familiar bed. She spends most of the day in it.<br /><br />Dusty went straight in his when it arrived whereas he had to be persuaded into the metal one. He slept in it for some of last night, but with the door rolled up so he could come and go. Eventually I hope to be able to close the door so he is safely confined if he has to be, but I'm taking it slowly xxTeresa Ashbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15350697922935549188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7328996877751363067.post-85997217392002477012015-11-17T07:55:31.263+00:002015-11-17T07:55:31.263+00:00Thank you, Rosemary xxThank you, Rosemary xxTeresa Ashbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15350697922935549188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7328996877751363067.post-24973847425219726312015-11-17T06:52:58.108+00:002015-11-17T06:52:58.108+00:00Bless his heart, Teresa.

He's been very unlucky to suffer these setbacks, but so very lucky to have you. I think his eyes show how grateful he is. And I love Harley's soft crate. Our three cats would love to curl up in one - or three - of those. Wishing Dusty the speediest of recoveries.
