hello kittehs!\u00a0on tuesday morning mom and dad double teamed us – Padre, Panda Bear, and me. they stuffed Panda Bear into one PTU, and Padre and me into another. then they put us into the grey room that moves, and off we went. you know it, kittehs. we were headed to the v-e-t.<\/p>\n

even though we had just had an ice storm. see our magnolia tree? it is completely encased in ice.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

this is one of the entrances to where mommy works.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

see all the ice on these trees? you can click on the photo to biggify.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

nope, all that ice did not stop mom and dad from taking us to the v-e-t. \u00a0#$%^&*@! cleveland with all its snow and ice removal equipment. even though we live in the “snow belt”, our schools rarely cancel school due to weather. (however, yesterday our schools were closed because we had a blizzard.)<\/p>\n

Panda Bear complained the whole way to the v-e-t.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

when we got there, we all got weighed. they had to drag us out of our PTU’s.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Padre has lost some weight, and is down to 12.4 pounds (from 13.2 pounds last fall). Panda Bear weighs 13.0 pounds, same as last year. even though a lady is not supposed to reveal her age or her weight, well, i am almost 4 years old and i weigh 9.6 pounds, same as last year. (i guess i am more of a tomboy diva.)<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

mommy was actually worried that i am too skinny, but Dr. Amy reassured her that i am a healthy, normal sized cat. compared to all the other big kittehs at Casa de Furry Bambinos, i look tiny.\u00a0when Cookie and Caramel were at the v-e-t a few weeks ago, their weights were 14.0 pounds for Cookie (you read that right) and 10.0 pounds for Caramel. Caramel looks bigger than that, but it’s all floof. Caramel gets so stressed by going to the v-e-t that she actually ::whispers::\u00a0pees herself<\/span> in the PTU. at least none of us did that this time.<\/p>\n

this is my boyfriendcat Padre hiding in the PTU. Padre is going to have to have dental surgery on march 31. if you could spare some purrs for Padre, we would appreciate it.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

we were examined and got our shots. i yodeled a bit to make them aware of my displeasure. Panda Bear, the dork, was all calm and mellow. Dr. Amy said that when she listens to a cat’s heart rate, it is usually around 220 because we are so anxious. Panda Bear was a mellow 150. he even posed for his picture with Dr. Amy. (i think he has a crush on her.)<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

to add insult to injury, when we got home, mom left us to go to work, rather than stay at home and hover over us to make sure we did not have reactions to our shots. yeah, dad stayed with us, but there were three of us to observe! Cookie staged a sit-in to protest this injustice.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

and then when mommy got home from work, she and daddy dragged two different rug sucking monsters around, moved furniture, and removed all our furs from our cat trees! that stoopid foster kitten Sunny is trying to be all macho and face off against the spot bot monster. doesn’t he realize it could eat him alive?<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

hello, ASPCA? we want to file a complaint …<\/p>\n

and i’m supposed to say that Cookie and Caramel are having a birthday party<\/span><\/strong><\/span> next week to celebrate their second birthday. which is good, so that all of you can help us replace fur everywhere.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
