Sinterklaas

Yesterday was Sinterklaas. That's when Sinter Claus is coming to every home in the Netherlands with presents. Vrouwtje says it's a little bit like Christmas but it didn't have Christmas yet so I don't know.

Vrouwtje came home earlier than normally to take care of my wounds. When baasje came home, we all got into the car. I wasn't too thrilled, I feared another trip to the vet. But we didn't go in that direction so I was a little confused and curious.

Then we arrived at Grandma's house, yippieee!!!
First the humans all ate. I had already gotten a present from vrouwtje - a cuddly little simba. So I played with it but of course I also checked a lot on the humans.

Later they all got presents, and I got the paper the presents were wrapped in. So much paper to tear apart, so much fun!! I even got to help Grandpa to unwrap his presents. He let me tear off the paper, that was soooo cool!!

When my aunt came in with a teddybear in her hands, I knew it's for me. I couldn't wait to get it! I love stuff animals and always know, they are for me. (It just makes me wonder why vrouwtje is hiding some of them from me... it's as if she doesn't want me to have them...)

Well, I had a good evening. Vrouwtje and baasje are glad that I lived up a bit because the past day I'm not feeling well. The infections from the last surgery is still there and don't use my bad leg much now. That worries my owners a bit. Today we have another appointment at the vet so wish me luck that we're not getting bad news again.
