That has to be a lot more stressful for the rabbit, than for you. unless the other foxes are making fun of you for doing it.

It seems that the group that left with the Jackals have met with some kind of mishap, up by the entrance to the park. Elliott is limping, and the mouse seems to be hurt as well.
Kandi informs Joan, before returning to the phone call.

Senka, the jackals have managed to get themselves hurt again, I've got to go back to the parking lot, so that is where i'll be if you need me.
An Kandi starts jogging down the pathway to the parking lot.

No, it's for the best. As for when we'll do it, when would be convenient for you? When was the last time he ate? He'll need to be fasted before the procedure."

We haven't eaten since breakfast this morning. You might as do it while you already have him here, so i guessing that would be tomorrow morning then?
Gorge squirms around in his chair.
I must admit, I'm not really comfortable with him knowing I've agreed to having this done to him.
I fear it might change the dynamic of are relationship. An the awkward questions as to why i agreed to it.

~~~ Back in the pet park ~~~

Back on the phone with the jackals.
Stay up by the entrance. You should see my truck in the parking lot, go to stand next to it if you can get there, and i'll meet you there, Ok.

Blick had to stop to catch her breath. *pant* *pant* Woo! I'm out of shape. *pant* She saw Elliot roll around on the ground, and Faust rush him back into the park. Uh oh. Is Elliot going to be ok? Blick walked as fast as she can to catch up with the group. Once she reaches the entryway of the park, Blick gets a second wind and jogs. She cuts through a bush, and is now within earshot of the pets. Blick walks towards them, panting heavily.

I'm trying not to be. But his species is a predator of skunks, and his is three times my size!
but my owner says, i should always try to confront my fears.
He reaches out of the cage and starts petting the wolf.. feeling his fur, while his nose takes in his musk. Trying to get comfortable with his scent and presence, leaning up against the laced metal of the cage door.
If my litter-mates could see me now, trying to become friends with a huge natural predator!

Doc relaxed as he was being petted and taking advantage of the moment he got a more in depth scent of Oreo, definitely smelling his natural scent but after a moment he got a bit used to it where it wasn't so pungent.

Alright, Let's go-- But before Hutch could take an arm, Elliot (or Faust), took off in a sprint with the other in his arms.
Okay then... Hutch just decided to follow them next to Flynn.

Blick finally catches up to the pets. "*pant**pant* What happened? Is Elliot going to be ok?" Blick asks Mercury. She continues to pant heavily, but keeps pace with everyone.

Oreo then wonders where he heard that phrase before, and where it comes from..?

"Well at least it's not Flynn this time." Joan and John decide to go along with Kandi to see if there's anything they can do to help. Jogging after her, they stand by the truck to watch the proceedings.

~~~~
Seeing the fox running up behind him and not being able to identify her from a distance, Flynn gives another warning stamp and bolts after the jackals, leaving Hutch behind, but keeping a firm grip on Chip. Once he reaches the safety of Kandi's truck he turns around as the fox approaches and prepares to keep running. Fortunately he recognises her just in time. He breathes deeply a few times and waits for his pulse to return to normal.
"S-sorry, Blick. I just saw you coming at me from the corner of my eye and bolted before I could identify you... I guess I'm not quite over my phobia yet..." He looks at the mouse as she speaks.
"Because Kandi's here and she can help you and Elliot." he answers.

Paul checks the appointment book. "Yes. Tomorrow morning will work, as long as that's convenient for you? At the moment Oreo's young enough that I doubt he even knows what those bits are for, beyond what his instincts might tell him. He probably wont even realise they're gone. I could tell him it's just part of becoming a pet and I think he'd cooperate. I think he'll welcome anything that will make him a pet and get him back to you, especially if he thinks it'll allow him to play with the other pets in the community. That seems to be what he really wants, from what he said to Samantha during his exam earlier."

I'm not so sure, Flynn is looking winded and panicky again.Pointing to where the rabbit is nearly hiding in the wheel-well of the pickup truck.

Ok, then which ankle did you hurt?
Checking one then the other.. pressing in with her fingers,feeling along the bone structure.
Hmmm got some swelling going on already. how does the pan feel? like someone kicked you or got your foot in a leghold snap trap?

Quite convenient. The sooner it happens, the less he will suspect that i ever had anything to do with it.
Although it is comforting to know this urban myth is actually true, if done young enough, they never miss not have them.
Probably preserve his singing voice as well. You should hear him sing, perfect pitch and harmony, and can hit the high notes without a problem.
Mr. Nordic looks a bit taken back.
Would he will really be able to run loose with the other pets? I thought you always had to keep pets restrained and on a leash, unless you were way out in the country side.

Kandi folds up a towel, and lays the mouse onto the makeshift bed. Using a gauze pad as a pillow to raise her head.
What are all the symptoms are you experiencing? headache? nausea? blurred vision? a feeling of spinning?
Anything else hurt besides your head?

Joan watches Flynn, a little concerned, but she relaxes again as he does.
"I think he's OK." she says.

"She looked really dizzy earlier. She ended up underneath Elliot when he fell. She couldn't even stand earlier." Flynn informs the vet as she takes the mouse from him.

"He can sing? Well, that's something you don't see- er... hear every day. Somehow I don't think a band of skunks would be as popular as the Chipmunks though." Paul jokes.
"We do have one or two other musical pets in town though. You should hear Piper - the rabbit who lives in the antique shop. She's incredible!" Paul considers for a moment before replying to the other question.
"With your permission he can. Richmond Acres is a pet friendly town. All pets can go virtually wherever they like if they have their owner's permission and their tags. There are some places where pets do need leashes - in the court house, for example, but for the most part they can go where they like. You can certainly keep Oreo restrained or on a leash if you'd rather or if you don't trust him not to get into trouble though." Paul answers.

"To be honest, this stuff happens often, mostly to me. It's rare for Elliot to be the one getting hurt. Besides, Elliot is a bit fragile."

"I am not! I'm still pretty tough for a guy who had......"

Elliot pauses for a moment almost carelessly blurting out his cancer experience.

Radar took the guitar and paused a moment. "O-okay."
She played a few chords and began playing 'Jenny Owen Youngs - Why you fall'
"...I know I should have seen that hand behind your back,
But I was busy launching my own full-scale heart attack,
Yeah you sure taught me something when you took me down,
Make the best of moments,
Then make for higher ground...

Don’t want to hear about the wind and how it blow,
As far as I see love is just a h-hole..."
