Stuff

[kaliha]

I had a really productive morning this morning. I did 2 loads of washing, the washing up, cleaned the bathroom and tidied our bedroom. And all before 10.30am. Baby Formerly Known as Cheddar and Bilbo were on supervisory duties.

Today was also a day of sadness in the hourse as Bilbo went for his yearly visit to the vets for his booster injections. As mentioned in previous vet visit posts, Bilbo does not like going to the vets, not one little bit and will fight me tooth and claw to go into th cat basket and cry and howl all the way there and sit in the waiting room howling and crying too. He knew there was something up when I nipped up the loft for his cat basket. However, me, being occassionally cunning, had closed all the doors to the outside world so there was no escape for him and dropped a towel over him so that he'd fight the towel and be distracted when I put him in the cat basket.

It worked too!

He still cried in the car all the way there though. Poor little ginger. Luckily at the vets there were no dogs or other cats there so he moped in miserable silence. When we were called in to see the vet there was a nurse on stand by with a big towel in case he tried to do a runner. But after 7 years of this he's resigned himself now and just huddled miserably in his cat basket and let them poke him with needles. The Vet didn't even need his protective gloves (honestly, you'd think Bilbo was a bit grumpy when he went to the vets!)

We were in out and on our way home in less than five minutes. It was brilliant.

Now I'm going to have great fun cleaning all the "your email is over its size limit" emails that have filled up my work email account.

Bilbo's not talking to me now though. He thinks I'm a mean primary food giver and there's no snuggles for me. I am currently being shunned.

Hopefully, in a few days he will have forgotten all about it and he'll love me again. Which is good as I need to take him back some time in the near future to get his teeth cleaned again. Oh noes!

Awww, the poor little pudd-pudd. Jack doesn't like the vet either and he's going in a couple weeks. Tilly howls the whole time but she doesn't put up as much of a fight as Jack, although she made the vet nervous last time when she had to give her an extra shot and Tilly was Not Well Pleased.

Or American football kit...

Ot a full suit of armour...
