The night was extremely long, we had to take all of Toby's clothes and get a cold compress over his face and body, he was running a fever. I kept changing the compress over and over again, the nurse helped me a bit but she had work to do. Toby was crying and whining even under the effect of strong medication, he pulled on his IV a few times but it didn't come out thankfully. At three am, his tail had fully grown, it was brown matching his hair, his ears were now showing too. It's not a smooth transition as everyone thinks, it takes some time of pain for the little. Once they had fully appeared the nurse told me it was safe to get him in a hospital gown, keeping in mind his new sensitive tail. I set him sideways in my lap and closed my eyes for a minute. I woke up to some light hiccuping
