    Hey Starby, hope Niki's all right! And if I ever knew one you are a great critter mom! Don't you beatyourself up all over the place, accidents happen... kinda like the time I caught Jett drinking lavendar oil..? Heehee

    Wow, you guys. Starby, we are all so lucky to have friends like all of these people. You guys are the greatest.

    Starby, you know that you can call me anytime, day, night, doesn't matter. Keep us posted on Niki, if you don't feel like typing I can update everyone if you want. I know that they are all worried about Nik, and you, as am I.

    Hugs sweetie and a big wet kiss for Niki. :)

    An update for everyone who was so kind and sent licks and hugs to Niki. I brought her home late this afternoon, and she was sooooo happy to be in her own home! After 86 stitches and the whole ordeal, she seems to be fine, but groggy and a little disoriented. I hardly recognized her because now she looks like a little pink piggy! My poor fur-less baby. :(

    She has been prescribed "knock em out" painkillers,. and Starby thinks she might just try one of those, LOL!

    I'll explain more later if anyone wants to know all that happened, but right now I REALLY need some sleep... now that I know that she is going to be okay!

    Thanks everyone, again! (... and thanks again Alty for being awake when this all happened, to listen to me freak! LOL)

    Lub lub lub you guys! :D

    Great to hear starby... give Niki some extra hugs from me!

    We're all just so glad that she's okay. Poor little Niki Noodle, or should I say Miss Piggy (Just kidding Niki, your fur will grow back).

    Starby, as for the thanks for listening to you freak, honey, anytime, that's what friends are for. :)

    86 stitches, oh poor Niki... :(
    I am so sorry your baby and you had to go through this Starby, but I am glad she is going to be OK.:)
    Hugs to you both!

    Yes, her fur will grow back and we're all relieved that she is okay and now home, safe and sound! :)

    Starby! Niki is so lucky to have someone like you to love and care for her. I hope you get some rest and hope Niki rests well tonight.. I know Niki is happy to be home. In awhile, her fur will grow back, and all that will remain will be the scars that proves that there was an injury but with tender loving care, there was also healing!

    How traumatic that had to have been on both of you. I am just so sorry this happened.

    I will pray for you that the memory of this time be diminished as the healing takes place in Niki. Then you will both be good as new.

    Sleep well and know you are loved and so is Niki!

    Awww, thank you to all of you for your prayers and well wishes for Niki! It's funny because when I sit down and talk to her, and try and cheer her up I always tell her that she needs to get better because all of her Aunties and Uncles, said so! That sounds a little weird doesn't it? Oh well, I don't care!! :p I will do anything to get her back to normal... well almost anything... LOLOL! ;)

    I had to take her to the vet again today because I can't get her to eat or drink anything! The only way she will drink water, or eat even a bite is out of my hand. The vet gave me some big syringes today to force her to drink more.

    All she does is sleep, and look so sad. Every little sound scares her to death!

    I have been sitting here since 4pm or so, waiting for the police to come so they can finally make a report. I have called them 3 times now tonight, and they haven't showed! So do I have to take Nik to the donut shop? Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!

    LOL... that donut shop might be one only blondes would get quickly! Ha.

    Poor little girl... she really was traumatized and understandably so. Makes my heart sad for you and her.

    For some reason, there is a real time delay on notification of responses to posts this week.

    I didn't know you had arrived yet. Did anyone else show up tonight? I had company and a huge headache all day. I know you and Niki don't need a lot of partying yet but one day, we will celebrate her healing! Agreed?? Ask Niki if she agrees with Auntie Rebby please??
  • May 9, 2008, 10:39 PM
    starbuck8
    Oh I know what you mean with the notifications! Ugrrhh! Sometimes I don't realise and I miss everything!

    Oh, I'm going to make sure Niki get up and does some dancing as soon as she can! ;)

    I can't stand to watch her the way she is right now!
  • May 9, 2008, 10:42 PM

    Headaches must have been catchy today Rebby! I have had a huge one all day too!

    Well, I'm not sure what to do here?! Do I call the police station again? This is retarded! I mean it's been like 7 hrs now! Crazy!!
  • May 9, 2008, 10:42 PM
    jrebel7
    I am sad that she is so frightened but that will pass with time. Poor little girl. Well Starby, I am going to have to head on home. Have to trim all the hedge and cedars at my parents home tomorrow so it will be a long day. Maybe we will all feel better next Friday. I am going to be praying for sweet Niki that healing comes quickly to her body and spirit.

    I hope you have smiles too. I am worried for you.

    Starby, my experience with the police has not been good so I am not a good one to say. It is ridiculous you have had to wait so long. No wonder you have a headache. If you are up for it, I would call them and ask for a specific time. Let them know how long you have waited. You can't be expected to just stay glued at home until they decide to do their job.
  • May 9, 2008, 10:45 PM

    You don't need to be concerned about them coming to your door at odd times either.

    I know we have some police people on the site and they sound like they are dedicated to their jobs and sound like very caring people.

    We were just in a weird situation and I don't think anyone knew what to do. So...
  • May 9, 2008, 10:49 PM
    jrebel7
    Oh Starty! Great seeing you pop over. Glad you told us "Blondies" goodnight. Night to you and sweet dreams until we meet again in our virtual world!

    Hugs backatcha! Until later then! ~~~ LOVE ~~~

    So sorry Rebby! My computer had a hissy fit and crashed on me! Urrrghhh!

    I wasn't ignoring you hun! I hate it when that happens! You have sweet dreams and I will catch up with you soon OK?

    Hugs from Starby, and soft hugs from Niki to Auntie Rebby! :D

    It is just one of those night's Starby. While waiting to hear from you, I opened an e-mail. It had a power point presentation and when it ended, so ended my internet! I had to get back on the server.

    You take care! Thanks for hugs! :) I needed them tonight! Hugs backatcha, to both you and little Niki. ~~~Love~~~ and night night.

    Thanks again for You, Rebby,. ohhhh, I know you all know who you are! All of the Aunties and Unckies! ;) I really appreciate all of you!

    Rebby? don't even get me started on cops! :rolleyes: I know there must be some good ones out there somewhere!. but they sure haven't come my way anytime I've had to call. All I got was a bunch of legal jumble, and... ohhhh... now my head is hurting more just thinking about it! Blah!

    Just joking... I get frustrated!. but just in case,. write me a list!! :p

    GROWL GROWL!! I think I'm the only one here, but I am going to Grrrrrrrrrrrr, for a bit!

    I have sat and waited since mid yesterday afternoon! I just called the cops again!. I was put on hold for over 45 minutes. went through I don't know how many dispatchers that kept on asking me if I had been "helped" yet!? Only to hear that bylaw doesn't do dog calls at night!?

    DUHHHH!! Do they think that's why I called during the day and then sat here and waited 8 freakin hrs for them to come, only for them to tell me that I now have to call back on Monday when they have someone available?? OMG!! I am so choked right now!

    OOOOOO... RAHHHH!. bubbles... bubbles... bubbles! Good music!. aaaannndddd, bubbles... bubbles... bubbles! Deep breaths, deep breaths... music music!

    Did I scare everyone off now? Oh boy!. I tell you! ;)

    Sorry everyone! :) Big vent!

    Here's a chillaxin song for you girls! I don't know what your fave type of music is, but I like all kinds... so as hostess, requests are welcome if you need a good song to clear your head of all of the bad A$$es in the world! I have to reboot my stubborn puter, but I'll be back!

    HAPPY HAPPY MOTHERS DAY TO ALL OF YOU TOO! Safe travels Rebby! Niki and I send lick and schmoozes!

    Niki is actually feeling much better tonight! (well this am) She played ball with me for about 2 minutes, and actually picked up her fave bone and brought it to me to fill with her doggie crack... LOL, I think you've all heard me mention her fattening and addictive pleasure. It's like a beef treat that she luuuuuvvvvs to try and get out of her marrow bone!
