Thursday in the House with Jonesie and Cory

No time in the garden this week my furriends.   Both Cory and I have had a rough week.  Both of us went to the v-e-t place.   We have an awesome v-e-t...but I'd rather not see him if you know what I mean.

 

As some of you know I have a long standing condition known as rodent ulcers.  I sometimes get weird things happening.  I have a lesion on my tongue.  I'm not too freaked out by it since it happened before and it went away.   I had a recheck and the one I currently have is not getting better but it's not getting worse.    I'm so special, my v-e-t will be consulting with a specialist.

 

That's what they always do for special cats, right?

 

As for Cory, she's been having pee issues.  The v-e-t stole some of Cory's pee to send off to a lab somewhere.  Really?  A lab?  Like a Labrador Retriever?  What's a dog gonna do with Cory's pee?

 

Hmmmm

 

Anyway, as you can see from the photos, all we wanted was huggy time with our daddy.  There's nothing like daddy love when you are feeling put upon.

 

The garden will have to wait.

Thursday Trips

Boxes are fun! When mom brought out this box, I thought we were going to play and play! Momma and I stuffed our paws in an out of the play holes...until in one swift move, I was dumped out of the box, and Bennette was swooped in to the box and the lid was closed! Just like that!
Mom told me that Bennette and Madison had to go to the vet. Bennette because she needs to get started on her shots and Madison because he's still having some issues. Mom took pictures of their visit. Bennette weighs 7 pounds. The vet that saw her today said she is probably 6-8 years old, not 3-4 like the other vet. Of course Bennette's not talking, so we are deciding on calling her 6 years old. We really have no idea. We're expecting she won't feel so good over the next day or so while she sleeps off getting all those shots.

Madison's exam was fine, but he's been losing weight and has diarrhea. He had his *senior* blood work done. We'll be teasing him about *senior* status all week. We'll know more tomorrow. He wanted to hide in his carrier and make himself small. How do you make an almost 13 pound cat small? He used to weigh 16 pounds...that's why we're worried.

We're hoping he's OK. We've been through too much this year.
