Halvah came in the bedroom at 4:20 and snorted around in the litterbox for five minutes, then exited, leaving a wonderful bouquet of manure.
It's a good smell because it means she's functioning okay in that department and won't require a rush to the emergency vet again.
But Halvah has never figured out how to cover up. Sometimes afterwards she'll scratch the wall next to the box, as if that will do the trick. Nope.
I get up. It's pitchdark. And make way through the house to the kitchen to get the scoop and a penlight, then come back to take a look.
This specimen is thin, maybe three inches long, and reasonably shiny, not dry or compacted. Actually I think there's a second smaller specimen. Maybe I should go back and dig it up again to check.
But no, that shit has sailed.
Once I'm done covering and putting things up, I go back to bed. But nope, wide awake. I'm up for good.

I'm nobody's pony.
