Kitty's visit from the Veterinarian

Kitty’s visit from the Vet

The day started so nicely for Kitty. She had found a good sleeping spot under the covers of the guest bed. I think I might have to get another bed for guests to actually be able to sleep on...haha. Kitty was in happy cat land. Then about 1215 pm that all changed when the veterinarian arrived. He and I went to the guest room. He said the cat is sleeping under the covers? I said yes she loves to do that. We uncovered her. The vet got the needles ready. I tried holding her but she is a fighter. I went and got a towel and it was a little better. It wasn’t too bad holding her down while he gave her the shots. But there was one time I was holding her down and I looked over and the vet was reading

a text message which he had just received. I wanted to say listen I have her, give her the shot! Then he did. We went downstairs and left Kitty under the bed. A few minutes later I looked at Kitty was on the landing trying to see what was going on. The Vet mentioned deworming medicine. He was going to leave a syringe of it for me to put in her mouth later. But we were able to give her the one dose of it today. In 3 weeks I’ll have to give her the second dose. I think he was surprised at how much she fought on that one. It was so worth it though to have him come to me.

I would have loved to have gotten a picture of when we were giving Kitty the shot but of course that wasn’t possible. Kitty ignored me for a while afterwards. The middle picture was her a little while ago looking out the window. The bottom picture was her when she started yawning when i took the picture. When the Vet and I were sitting at my table. He saw the book, The Purpose Driven Life. He asked about it and i told him about it. I said you can borrow that one if you would like. He said yes I would. So he took the book and is supposed to start reading it. Then we’ll get together for lunch one day and talk about the book. Today is Mother’s Day in Guatemala. Lucilla (a Guatemalan friend) asked if I was going to do anything special. I said no I don’t have any plans and Kitty doesn’t have a present for me. Lucilla said Kitty didn’t go shopping and buy you anything?? haha Kitty has disappeared now. I think she is hiding out in the chair under the table. I’m sure she says that is enough for today!
