1/31/2007 Nurse Garfield's Field Notes

I’ve been so tied up with describing my opinions of what happened to the late race horse Barbaro that I haven’t given you an update as to the clinical condition of my regular human. I have been remiss in this matter, as much has been happening with her. Allow me to set the record straight, and... Sign in to see full entry.

1/30/2007 Nurse Garfield's Field Notes

My human got more information on Barbaro’s clinical condition this morning. Apparently, he developed laminitis in his front hooves, as well as the back ones, leaving him literally without a leg to stand on. It was pointless to continue to offer him medical treatment, so the humans decided to end his... Sign in to see full entry.

1/29/2007 Nurse Garfield's Field Notes

I have sad news today. Barbaro had to be sped to Rainbow Bridge this morning. The poor horse was suffering from an abscess in the leg he broke during the Preakness this past May, and doctors tried their best to treat that abscess, but his humans decided that enough was enough. They told the doctors... Sign in to see full entry.

1/28/2007 Nurse Garfield's Field Notes

I have some sad news – Snuffy had to be sent to Rainbow Bridge yesterday. His human posted this information to the Cyberkat email list last night, at about 11 PM Central time. Apparently, poor Snuff was unable to “go” through either end – he was unable either to defecate or to urinate. My human has... Sign in to see full entry.

1/27/2007 Nurse Garfield's Field Notes

Well, Snuffy’s human didn’t have to send him to Rainbow Bridge after all. He’s eating less than he should in order to maintain his weight, and he is significantly underweight, but he is indeed eating small amounts of cat food several times daily, and that encourages his human. She is hopeful that... Sign in to see full entry.

1/26/2007 Nurse Garfield's Field Notes

I won’t be hearing from Zeb much the next few days. His human is going to work – I don’t really remember what she does for a living, but she can’t bring her laptop to work with her because it would distract her from doing her job. Therefore, Zeb himself will be off line for a while. At least this... Sign in to see full entry.

1/25/2007 Nurse Garfield's Field Notes

Snuffy’s human is now feeling a bit conflicted about sending him to Rainbow Bridge. Evidently, Snuffy ate something over the past 48 hours – not a great deal, but enough to give his human some hope as to his true clinical condition. I worry about poor Snuffy. I don’t like the fact that he has gone... Sign in to see full entry.

1/23/2007 Nurse Garfield's Field Notes

My human has received some horrible news, as of yesterday. Zeb’s cattorney colleague and partner, Snuffy (also known as Mr. Snufflebum), has been having such severe gastrointestinal difficulties that his human has decided to do him the kindness of relieving his suffering permanently. Snuffy has... Sign in to see full entry.

1/23/2007 Nurse Garfield's Field Notes

Today has been a very rough day for me – and it’s just started. I thought I’d better get these Field Notes in early before things really started to go sour, at least purrfessionally. My human has had to make sure that her carbon-monoxide detector is working properly (rather than sounding off at the... Sign in to see full entry.

1/22/2007 Nurse Garfield's Field Notes

My human promises me that she will write something later on today on an issue called “abortion” by humans. I don’t understand anything about this procedure, but my human does, and she has very strong opinions about this issue. I saw Zeb yesterday. As usual, we watched a movie together. This time...
