V.E.T. Re-Check



Ok, so...I'm back from, yet again - another visit to the "House or Horrors" - on the pretense that it's going to be a simple howdy-do visit!

Well...you know how you can never trust these shifty vets-they are always looking for a reason to poke & prod! And this visit was no different!

Good news & bad news. The good news first....my butt fection is all cleared up! (butt (hahahaha-no pun intended!) it will be an on-going-so I have my very own special medicated bum wipes!!) More good news (if your own medicated bum wipes isn't enough good news for one day!!) ....one eye is improved muchly....the other, not so much. So, Mr. V.E.T. says I still have to get drops, in both eyes...from now til the cows come home!

Does anybody know when that will be? And where have the cows gone, anyways? And what do they have to do with my eyes?? Stay tuned.....I feel a mystery unfolding!

Double Whammy!!!

This is Xena here....I don't often have much to say, but when I do - ya know it's portant!!
Today started off like any other Monday. There I was, minding my own business, just snugglin' in for an afternoon snoozle.
When, the next thing you know - I'm sitting at the V.E.T.!!! I mean...can you imagine my horror! And for what?? A gal of my age can't scooch her butt around the floor without someone getting all in a snit & hauling me off to the "House of Horrors!!!"

And what that nasty, V.E.T. did to me.....I shudder now to think of it, let alone share the gory details with ya'll. Seems I gots a bacterial fection in my butt! Did ya ever hear of such a thing?? They made that up...I know they did! Just to put me thru the humilitation of having my butt probed!!!

Then, if that wasn't enuf misery, Mama just "happens" to pick that time to mention my eye crustys!! It's like picking on one end isn't enuf for these people! The low down V.E.T.then sticks these paper thingeys - IN MY EYES - and then expects me to make tears!! Hmph!!! Boy, if only I had teeth.....I woulda showed him!! Anyhoo, my tear making thingys is broken...so now I have not one but TWO kinda drops to fix that problem!

Just look at the bag of goodies the V.E.T. insisted I have! Pffft!!




Now, ya'll are thinking how much worse can it get, right? Well, hold on to your peeners (if ya have peeners!) cause then (shudder) I had a spa day at a new groomers! Seems Mama and her "friend" didn't quite make enuf mess of me....they had to call in the professionals!!
I was stripped of my matts, underwent an extensive pawdicure, & dipped in the pool of liquid nitrogen with some icky smelling stuff!!!

It's enuf to make a senior gal turn gray!!!
