Woozy puss

Mommy took me to the vet today, and the visit itself was less painful than the drive with her. ;)

Mommy and the vet were laughing and cracking jokes. I liked the vet. Her name was Tracy. Her assistant's name was also Tracy. The assistant immediately shoved a thermometer up my ass when I came out of my little cage, so I was mad but she petted me and told me how pretty I am, so she was cool in my book after that.

Unlike my last vet, when they went to weigh me, they said they were certain I was all fur. But then I got off the scale and they said, nope, I'm all cat. When they told Mommy that 18.6 pounds is a little bit much for a dainty little puss like me, Mommy told them that I only move one square foot a day, so I get no exercise. They laughed and said that foot must be to the food dish, and Mommy said that I'd much rather prefer having my food come to me. Bitch!

Mommy had a long talk with the Tracys, and they recommended that if a new cat comes into the house, that we be kept apart for 10 days. They said a new cat should be locked away in a room where I can't go, and that we'd get to sniff each other under the door and at least know that another cat is present. They highly recommended that we not interact puss-to-puss for those 10 days, or we might not get along as well as we could if we have time to get used to the idea of each other first.

You're not hearing any complaints from me on that one!

What I will complain about, though, is the battery of tests and vaccinations that they decided I should have. And Mommy told them to do whatever and then some. Heh. She regretted it when she got the bill -- so much for using that tax return for what she really wanted to use it for! And then, they told me I have to go back in three weeks for booster shots! If I hadn't gotten all these stupid shots that I didn't need, the bill would have been $100 less, and Mommy's still steaming over it, so I will leave her alone for a little while. Besides, these meds are making me reeeaaaaalllllyyy sleepy, so I am going to retire to my lil kitty sofa and snooze for an hour or 10.
