I have had a chance to confer with my human this morning, and we have agreed on a care plan for her case. She would like me to pat her on the human version of a paw three times daily, and say "there, there," as I do so. This is about all I can do for her at this stage of her illness; the doctors...

2/17/2004 Nurse Garfield's Field Notes
I'm enjoying a rare day off today. Feline nurses are entitled to time off to themselves, after all. I decided to spend my day lounging around, playing the lady of leisure, and sleeping. Of course, there are my usual duties to my human that I absolutely must perform. She may not realize it, but my... Sign in to see full entry.

My human left the house this morning, against my better judgment, and saw something called an Oscar. Evidently, this is not someone named Oscar; these are gold statuettes given to movie actors and others in the movie industry once every year. They are so named because they allegedly reminded someone... Sign in to see full entry.

My human is doing much better today than yesterday, thankfully. She wishes to thank all of you who have sent good thoughts her way. The White Cat Ball that I attended was wonderful. We actually got to meet the guest of honor, a stray white cat that barely had time to be introduced to us before the... Sign in to see full entry.

2/14/2004 Nurse Garfield's Field Notes
Today was not a good day for my human. She and my male human spent most of their money on getting something called "new brakes" for their car. She is very worried about how to meet other expenses, and any good thoughts you can spare her would be much appreciated. (Thank you to everyone who clicks... Sign in to see full entry.

2/13/2004 Nurse Garfield's Field Notes
My human's life has been remarkably uneventful the past two days. Yesterday, she had to get some blood drawn, and see the human I recommended that she see to alleviate stress. Now, all I have to do is to convince her to lay down some more - I suspect she is coming down with some bug or other, and... Sign in to see full entry.

2/11/2004 Nurse Garfield's Field Notes
My human has finished watching the Westminster Kennel Club show on USA Network, and I am still left wondering what show the winning dog is best of. Purrhaps it's just that I'm a feline and I don't understand dog things. Speaking of dog shows, my humans wish to go to another dog show in Chicago at... Sign in to see full entry.

2/10/2004 Nurse Garfield's Field Notes
I don't understand what you humans see in dogs, and I still don't understand why the winner in a dog show is called "Best in Show." We are watching the rerun of last night's Westminster Kennel Club, and my human is thinking of adopting one of these absurd creatures. I don't know why. I might even... Sign in to see full entry.

2/9/2004 Nurse Garfield's Field Notes
Today, my human went to get something called a screening mammogram done. This test is designed to determine if a human has mammary cancer (called breast cancer in humanspeak). She found the experience interesting. Suffice it to say that she had several more pictures taken than is normal for a... Sign in to see full entry.

2/8/2004 Nurse Garfield's Field Notes
My human spent most of today at home with me, which gave me ample time to confer with her and update my care plan. Her emotional needs are great, so I spent many minutes patting her on her furless paw and saying, "There, there, dear." (This is a skill taught to me by Nurse Guinevere the Good.) I...
