lamia_primeTook Neo to the vet yesterday, he is now 4.1 lbs and still growing. I am very concerned about this, and have decided to start him on a pack-a-day cigarette habit, as well as cofee, to stunt his grown. Should I bind him like a Chinese noblewomans feet, as well?
He had his rabies shot, the last of his deworming, and a checkup. Vet said he's perfect, adorable, handsome, and the wettest cat she'd ever examined since that stray that was brought in from the rain. While we were waiting for the vet to come in, to keep Neo from attacking the behemoth cat on the other side of the door, I turned on a thin stream of water in the sink.
Neo was BITING the water - turning his head sideways and biting at the stream. He also was pawing at it, so his paws were wet, his butt was wet, his head was wet...it was adorable.
Also, while waiting, I looked at some of the posters and pamphlets they have there, and found the most appalling poster I have ever seen. More disgusting than aborted foetuses, more horrible than images of blown up bodies in war - it was an image of an animal heart, removed post-mortem, FILLED with heartworms - the heart had been sliced to show, and I thought that the heart had actually burst from being full, but the vet calmed me down and assured me that it had been cut for display purposes. And that they try very hard to keep that from ever happening.
MAKE SURE YOUR PETS GET HEARTWORM MEDICINE!!!!
That was so gross, my brain is seriously scarred from that image.
