Sneezeriffic

At about three in the morning we awoke to a sneezing cat. My inclination was to kick her off the bed and lock her out of the room, but I was too lazy to get out of bed. I have to admit that I would have felt a little bad for kicking her out of the room when she was "sick" too. She was sneezing like crazy though---probably 20 or more rapid fire sneezes at a time. They were shaking the bed. This is sort of how it went...

H: "Sneeze...sneeze...sneeze...sneeze...etc."

P: "Is Henri okay? Should we do something for her?"

(More sneezing.)

M: "Like what? What are you going to do for a sneezing cat?"

P: "I don't know..."

(15 minutes go by, filled with more sneezing and some drifting in and out of sleep.)

P: "Maybe I should give her some catnip?"

M: "You think catnip is going to help the sneezing? I think it might make it worse."

(Another fifteen minutes of sneezing and half-sleeping.)

P: "Maybe I could go look something up online to fix her?"

M: "You're not going to find something online to fix a sneezing cat right now!"

(Another ten minutes of sneezing and Henri leaves the bedroom.)

P: "I'll check on her when I get up for work."

(Two minutes go by. I get up to go check on the cat.)

P: (with relief) "You're going to go check on her, right?"

M: (stumbling) "Yeah, yeah, I'll be right back."

Thankfully Henri appears to have gotten over her sneezing fit now.
