Propping up a dodgy memory

Took Cally in to the vet for 3rd of 4 weekly injections of Cartrophen, and decided on a future course of one shot per month pending continued signs of improvement. Didn't take Pumpkin in, but had a chat about his hip and general Birmaniness.

It's time to take Cally to the vet for a review of her pain treatment. I knew it was coming, but the actual phone call was inspired by something very simple: the bottomless vial of Metacam I've been giving to her has finally run dry. I've had it for quite some time and only yesterday felt moved to belatedly check the expiration date (10/2012 fyi).

Started the day with an exciting development: had a shower, dried off and got completely dressed without having to negotiate for spoons! I just, like, DID it! Woo!

Still not really up for outings today and had decided to defer Princess' 2 week followup vet visit for up to a week, but she suddenly went berk with scratching and headshaking, so we piled ourselves into various boxes and went to the vet.

Look at my icon. Now look at the text. Look at the icon. Back to the text. My achievement for today: getting the right kind of cat food down the throats of three cats. Three cats, three different types of cat food. And they think they did it of their own free will.

The Catmobile met a vaguely famous Lamborghini on the road this evening. Local residents will probably be aware of the GP's yellow lambo that was impounded for alleged speeding by the car's alleged mechanic. Can't be too many slick beatsies like that out there with the same vanity plates. Bit of a giveaway that last.

I try to keep on top of the cats' dental health, but since they're all getting on I sent them off for a teeth clean. Well, that was the plan back in September when they had their shots. Pumpkin got done last year, but life intervened as it tends to do, so Cally and Princess didn't get done until today. $700 later... (actually over a thousand all up for the three of them) *wince*

Cally The Evil Cat is severely under-represented in the Sector 7 photographic record. Pre-digital there was some issue with the silver in photo negatives. These days she's simply out-performed by fluffiness and cuteness. She doesn't do fluffy or cute.

Ever.
