Vet

Not a human I particular like to see, but sometimes it’s necessary. I prefer that I don’t take any medication even when many would think it would be better. I don’t like medication as my girl knows. The few times she’s had to give me some, she would use a liquid that I couldn’t spit up. She’d have to chase me and catch me first.

But getting routine check ups and vaccines are a good idea. It’s a preventive sort of medicine. Not pleasant and I did my best to pretend I was somewhere else when they were examining me, especially when they stuck the thermometer inside me. I know my girl agrees with me. Vets are a necessary evil in a cat’s life. Without them, we may not live very long.

If you don’t like the vet, please keep in mind not all vets are bad. There are some who do love us and want to help us out. There are some, I’m happy to report, who understand why we don’t like to take medication and only prescribe when it’s absolutely necessary. For that I am thankful.
