Whatever the reason, she is DEFINITELY in heat! If the
particular sound of her yowls and her rolling about on the
floor and frequently licking her rear weren't enough clues,
this morning Melisande sniffed Cendrillon's hind quarters,
at which point Cendi assumed that unmistakable crouch and
began "pedalling" with her back feet. We have an
appointment with the vet tomorrow for the routine exam they
require for all new patients, and surgery the following
Friday (by which time she should no longer be in heat).

I'm a bit ticked off at the neighbor who abandoned her (as
though I weren't already)! I was willing to adopt an
unfortunate abandonee, but I hadn't planned on paying for
surgery that should have been performed before he got her!

If you check around you may have something like we have here - a non
profit clinic which does low cost neutering. This is where I took
Rocky, and the neuter was only something like $18. Of course his shots
had to be brought up to date, he needed de-worming, and I got a year's
worth of Revolution for everyone, so the final bill was over a
hundred, but still that's a lot less than my regular TED would have
charged.
