Carmine got to go first. They weighed him, and he lost 3 ounces. The Mom isn't happy about that. She says she is going to try feeding him more a/d again. She had stopped feeding it to him after he had gained weight at his last visit to see if he could maintain his weight on regular noms. So he will get to eat those yummy a/d cans - and the Mom won't let me have any.
They took him to the back and expressed his anal glands, and then it was my turn.
The Mom got me out of my carrier and I growled. She set me up on the table, and I growled and hissed at Carmine! She said I should be nice to him, but I wanted him and the Mom and the vet tech to know my displeasure.
The vet tech lady was nice to me, but I still just wanted to get out of there. She looked at my teeth and felt my tummy. She took me back to have the vet look at my teeth, too. The Mom says that I am going to get my teeth cleaned on March 17th. The vet said something about me having a bit of gingivitis. The Mom says it will cost lots and lots of green papers, but she says I am worth it! I say she should save those green papers and buy me something fun and not take me back to the vet, MOL. I don't think she's going to listen to me, though.
Lita, you are so cute! And you've got to keep your teefs in good shape so your smile is as cute as you! Carmine, sorry to hear about the stuff that happened to your...um...nether regions...
ReplyDeleteWe are sorry to hear you had to go to the vet, and have to go back to get your teeth cleaned. We know healthy teeth are important, though.
ReplyDeleteWe love going to the vet...well, except for Grizelda. She is horrified to leave home. She does just fine, though. It is important to visit the vet.

I hope the a/d gets the weight back on you, Carmine. You have to let the vet and everyone know that you don't want to be there, Lita. I don't growl. I try to hide under my mum's armpit.
ReplyDeleteI think the title of this post should be 2 grumpy cats go to the vet.I hope Carmine gains some weight.
ReplyDeleteYou two poor babies should have a suite named after you at the vet's office :(
ReplyDeleteUgh! We don't blame you for being grumpy about going to the vet. I have to go tomorrow...and Wally has to tag along. Won't he be surprised? ~Ernie
ReplyDeleteThat is no fun sweet Lita, but it sure is important to take care of the teeth sweetie!
ReplyDeleteDon't worry, Lita, you will feel much better after your teeth are fresh and clean!
ReplyDeleteThat's no fun, but healthy teeth are important ! Purrs

Trips to the vet - must be done! Sorry little Milita. Carmine looks quite adorable in that picture. :-)
ReplyDeleteI know it's not fun to go to the vet--my kitties have been very vocal about that. But it helps keep you healthy!
ReplyDeleteI feel bad for you guys because it seems like you go to the Vet every week.....that's NO fun! catchatwithcarenandcody
ReplyDeletewe are both having dentals on the same day. Want to go together and hold paws?
ReplyDeleteTaking my cat to the vet turns into a total disaster. I don't even now how to make it easier for him.
ReplyDeleteWe hope that dental goes well...sorry that you have to endure it all though...
ReplyDeleteHe may be grumpy, likely to show his displeasure and grumble a lot, but your precious puss is your cherished, one-of-a-kind companion, so when it comes to his health, you need to know he's in safe hands. When you find a great vet, you can be happy that puss always gets the very best attention available – even if he doesn't share the sentiment!
