WAFFLES: Where are you going, Boss?
KATIE: Where do you think, Waffles?
WAFFLES: You're not going to come home all smelly again are you?
KATIE: Not if I can help it.
WAFFLES: Good, because the last time you went to the you-know-where, you came home smelling like you-know-what.
KATIE: Well buckle up, Waffles, because you're coming too.
WAFFLES: Wait. What??
KATIE: You should know the drill by now, Waffles. Whenever I go, you go. So you don't get all hissy afterward.
WAFFLES: I better not have to play the Where's the Thermometer game!
KATIE: Heated seats, classical music. Nice try, Glogirly, but I'm not buying it.
KATIE: Perhaps I can create a diversion and locate an escape route. Or just hide.
KATIE: Senior wellness visit? SENIOR blood test? SENIOR????? That is no way to talk to a ladycat.
Katie is going to the vet today for her senior wellness visit. Despite the health concerns that Katie has, like her IBD (Inflammatory Bowel Disease), Glogirly is very confident that everything will check out just fine for her tuxedo girl.
We manage Katie's IBD with a biologically appropriate raw diet. Lately Katie is favoring chicken over her usual turkey. And whenever she has an IBD flare-up, Glogirly has everything she needs to give her a low dose, fast acting steroid injection right here at home.
About a year ago when Katie started her new diet, she was having flare-ups about once a week. (For Katie, a flare-up means throwing up a meal. Usually, breakfast) Now, she's gone as long as 2-3 months without any symptoms. Our vet was thrilled the last time we saw her and we're hoping she's thrilled again!

Binga and Boodie get regular senior checkups... they're at the age when there's often something going on, so the checkups usually coincide with treatment of some sort.
ReplyDeleteMe? I just get regular regular checkups, 'cause I'm in the prime of my life!
Hope da checkup goes well!
ReplyDeleteWe hope it goes well!
ReplyDeletePraying it all goes well!

ReplyDeletePaws crossed, Katie!
ReplyDeleteWe hope that you pass all your tests with flying colors, Katie!
ReplyDeletePaws crossed for a good report, Katie.
ReplyDeletepurrs for a good report and that Waffles doesn't get his hiss on.
ReplyDeleteHey Katie, I'm so old that I get check ups every 8 weeks! I'll trade ya? Signed, Benny
ReplyDeleteKatie, hope all of your vet news is good! I mentioned to The Hubby that it was time to take Angel in for a check-up, but he just rolled his eyes. He'd better stop that, or I'll take HIM in for a check-up!!!!
ReplyDeleteHope everything is good. I am taking my senior on Monday for a check up.

We hope Katie gets a good report!
ReplyDeleteHope everything went well with the checkups. When one goes so does the other. We hope Katie gets a good report and they diet she is on is working just fine with her. Where's the Thermometer game. That's one game you sure don't like. Thanks for the share. Have a great day.
