Disciples of Otis,
Brother Oliver here. Leader Otis asked Me to fill in for Him this morning because He says He is too sore for blogging. He’s been curled up in a cardboard flat all morning looking miserable.
The Leader is having a bad day. His Art Thritis is making Him very sore.
Because The Leader is hurting, I have declared this Soreness Sunday. I hope He gets all of His soreness out in this one day so He can move on to Much Better Monday. I didn’t want to tell Him this, but I overheard the Guardians talking about His upcoming Hipsterectomy surgery and it sounds like they have set a date. I know it’s going to be scary for Him, but hopefully once it is over He will be on the road to leaving days like today behind Him.
So Sayeth Brother Oliver

Oh my goodness, poor Leader Otis. He looks miserable. Any idea what will happen in the surgery? Do kitties get artificial joints? I’m thinking not, maybe arthroscopy. Purring for Leader Otis.
I think I heard the Guardians saying the surgery was called an FHO. I assume this means something like, “Feline Hipsterectomy Operation” or something.
Thanks so much for the purrs, Batya.

I hope you and the boys give him extra snuggles when he is hurting like this. He looks so miserable–I just want to snuggle him and make it better. I’m sure the Guardians feel the same.
Thanks Christine. Yeah, we’re taking good care of him. I actually gave him a bath yesterday because he has trouble reaching his whole body what with the ouchiness and all.
– Brother Oliver
You are a good brother, Oliver. I know he would do the same for you.
Our thought here are with Otis and I do hope his upcoming event will help make him feel better.
Thanks Wazeau!
