6/19/2006 Nurse Garfield's Field Notes

Today is my namesake's birthday. For those of you who do not know what I'm talking about, today is the anniversary of the day the Garfield comic strip first appeared in newspapers across the country. My human tells me this is also the anniversary of the day she started dialysis, so she has no... Sign in to see full entry.

6/18/2006 Nurse Garfield’s Field Notes

I looked in on Barbaro – the horse who broke his leg during that abominable Preakness horse race – the other day. He had just had his cast changed, which is a good thing. I will do some more checking on him later in the week. Yesterday, my humans went to something called an animal shelter. Animal... Sign in to see full entry.

6/17/2006 Nurse Garfield’s Field Notes

I came home from the nurse’s networking session at about 11 PM last night. I enjoyed myself immensely; I met several colleagues from New York alone, and we spent the majority of the evening comparing notes. I spent the rest of the evening talking to a young feline nurse from California. Her human is... Sign in to see full entry.

6/16/2006 Nurse Garfield's Field Notes

I'm writing this before I head off to the final session of my refresher course. Today, we are studying - of all things - cat nutrition, specifically what foods we should be eating and which foods we should be avoiding. For example, I didn't know we should avoid eating raw fish; from my studies, I... Sign in to see full entry.

6/15/2006 Nurse Garfield's Field Notes

I'm writing this during a nip-tea break in my refresher course. So far, today's session has been interesting, focusing on the emotional needs of the feline nurse. I learned that it is important to make sure we are adequately cared for, so that we do not do something humans call "burning out."... Sign in to see full entry.

6/14/2006 Nurse Garfield's Field Notes

This is going to be a rather short entry, written "on the fly" just before I go off to the next session of my refresher course. The other day, while making an appointment with the evil vet lady for me and my idiot brother, my human noticed a brochure on the topic of salmon poisoning. Apparently, if...

6/13/2006 Nurse Garfield's Field Notes

I promised to update you on my refresher course. Yesterday's evening session was actually more of a "welcome to the school" speech, delivered by the head of the school. As I was listening to her, I was reminded of my mentor, Guinevere Pumpkin. How I miss her. Today, we discussed the importance of... Sign in to see full entry.

6/12/2006 Nurse Garfield's Field Notes

I mentioned yesterday that I was going for a nip tea and gossip session with Pepper, Penny and Ali. Ali had her first taste of tuna scones yesterday, and she liked what she tasted; the only reason she didn't overindulge in these delicious treats is that Penny and I both kept a very close eye on her...

6/11/2006 Nurse Garfield's Field Notes

My human tells me that yesterday, a horse race called the Belmont Stakes was held. Apparently, she says, they call this the third jewel in something called the Triple Crown. Frankly, I frown on the idea of allowing a beautiful animal like a horse to run around a track like, for want of a better... Sign in to see full entry.

6/10/2006 Nurse Garfield's Field Notes

My human says that during the past 24 hours, I have been a tremendous comfort to her. This is gratifying to me; it means that my feline nursing services are still warranted for her. While I'm thinking of the practice of feline nursing, I remember promising yesterday that I'd talk about the refresher... Sign in to see full entry.
