A few days ago, Dad saw in the newspaper that our vet was named "2011 Veterinarian of the Year" by The New Mexico Veterinary Medical Association (NMVMA).

They didn't ask me to vote!

I used to like her -- I like just about everyone -- but I'd rather avoid her since she stole my teeth a few weeks ago. When Mom and Dad took me back so she could check how my mouth was healing, I tried my best to get away from her and hide in Mom's armpit. I'm not a momma's boy, though! I usually prefer Dad, but he was standing too far away to get to his armpit. Mom was next best.

Mom and Dad were worried about me after the vet stole my teeth. They thought she stole my personality, too. I didn't have a lot of zip for a while, but finally after three weeks, I ran through the house, picked up my pipe-cleaner toy in my mouth and ran off with it. Mom said to Dad, "He's back!"

A couple nights ago when I was jumping around -- at midnight, in the middle of Mom and Dad's bed -- Dad woke up and said, "What's going on?"

"I think Beepers is playing," Mom said. She sat up and watched me as I jumped, pounced and chased my toy around the bed. "Yes, he's playing with his pipe-cleaner toy."

Then she lay down again and covered her face and head with her arms. She thought I might land on her head! I almost did!

"I'm just glad he feels good enough to play," said Mom.

She's a good Mom, but Dad's still my favorite.

And the vet? She may be "Vet of the Year" to somebody, but I don't think I like her much anymore. But, I'm pretty easy going, so I'll probably make up with her in time. No fooling!

You could have fooled me, Kramer! You looked like Newman at first, but now I can see you're way better looking than he is.

Congrats to your vet. You must have been in pawsome hands. I think you should make up with them since they looked after you so well. I know you think they were been mean when they took all your toothies but don't you feel better now for it?
Purrs all is good and that you don't bounce on something you are not supposed to, ie like your meowmy's head.

I'm sure she only won that award because you gave her the honour of treating you. It's a well known fact that the NMVMA select the winner based on the quality of the patients at the vet's practice. Oh my yes.

Darn good thing they didn't find out about Ashlynne....

Maybe she paid the newspaper off in stolen teeth.
