 Made of Awesome | Ern-la the Best-wa | TZ's Apogee
Much as Katy was delighted by being able to handle kneazles, even sick ones, her little heart broke about them being sick. One of them in particular, a little gingery one with a hooked ear, made her heart roll over and die. He was about as far from Miaow as a kneazle could be, since Miaow was glossy and clean and purebred and prissy, and he was slightly feral and definitely not prissy... but he still broke her heart.
"Hey little bub," she cooed at him as she knelt beside where the kneazle was curled, feebly licking a paw and just looking miserably. It brought her pleasure to clean out his litter box and change the cloth in his crate. Clean house made the sick feel better already! "Just lay there and be still and I'll take care of you."
While she was cleaning, Katy took her wand to the feed bottle. "Scourgify. Don't want my little bub getting sick. He deserves a nice clean home and a nice clean bottle and... oh, sweet baby." Now he was licking her. Ugh, her heart. Could. Not. Take. It.
"Just open up, sweet baby bub," Katy fed him two drops, and then a third, of the tonic. Hopefully his fur would be glossy and full once he felt better. Hopefully he'd have some pep in his step. Hopefully he'd feel all better soon. She filled the now-clean bottle with milk and offered it to the kneazle. In spite of the fact it wasn't warmed, he took to it with some enthusiasm. The tonic must be working already!
"Sweet boy. C'mere." Katy wrapped him in a blanket and dragged him into her lap.
