I'm still here

Hey everyone. Sorry I haven't blogged in a long time. I would say it is because I am busy. But we all know that isn't true. I am lazy--plain and simple.
After events today I felt a post was in order.
Mama and Curt tricked me. Mama pretended like she was holding me and cuddling. And then I heard Curt open the closet door. That meant one of two things: they were either getting out the vacuum or the cat carrier. I hate BOTH of them! I tried to get out of Mama's arms. I even punched my paw into her throat. She was coughing, but, dang it, she wouldn't let go of me.
They put me into the carrier and Mama took me to the vet. Can you believe the vet is open on a Sunday? What kind of place is that?
While Mama and I waited in the exam room I did some exploring. (See pics below.) The vet came in and asked Mama some questions and then she checked my heart and lungs. Good. Checked my teeth--not so good. I am gonna have to go back and have them cleaned. (I have been through that before.) Can you believe the vet mentioned I am overweight? I weigh in at 16 pounds 12 ounces. Everything looked good. My right eye gets watery sometimes. I have herpes--but don't get grossed out. It isn't the same in cats as in people. Mama is gonna have to feed me something and put something in my eye. You know that is gonna suck!
I had some blood work done, my shots, got a dewormer, etc. And I get to go back at some point for my teeth cleaning.
So, not such a great day. After I finish this post I am gonna go hide.



Mama took some pics of me while I was exploring, via her iPhone. It takes pretty good pics. I know how to open drawers and cupboards. I was trying really hard to open the cabinets at the vet's office. In the fifth picture you can see that I found something good--the trash opening. I got in there a few times and every time I did Mama pulled me out.
Mama also took a pic of a poster in the room. I am almost 14 years old. So for people I am in my 70s. I am still pretty frisky in my old age.
