Jules' World

I got an honor, I think

Last Saturday, my mom noticed that I had a pinkish spot in my left eye. She called one of her vet bosses (yes, she works for the enemy, but she gets a nice discount on our treatment!) who came over and looked at my eye, but she couldn't see the pink spot. Mom decided to just watch it. On Monday at work she mentioned it to the other vet bosses, and the head boss said to bring me in and let her see it. After looking at my eye, she called the special vet who is an expert with eyes, and he said he better look at it, too. So, we had to ride in the car for a loooong time to go see the eye vet. It wasn't bad since mom let me out of the carrier and let me lie on the car floor at her feet (don't worry, dad was driving). The eye vet said I don't have the very bad thing, just the not-so-good thing. I have to have eye drops that aren't too great on my diabetes but will hopefully fix my eye.
The head vet lady was off today but called mom to check on me. She said she wants all the other vets to see my eye, because I'm an "interesting case study." I think that must be a good thing, if everyone wants to look at me, right?

Summer Tag!

I was tagged by my newest orange pal Fuzz!

Here's how to play the game. It's summer time and there are lots of things to do during this time of year. We would love to hear what you like to do during the summer. List 5 things you like to do and then tag 5 furiends! If you can't participate, I won't be offended, but join in the fun if you like!

The things I like to do in the summer are.......

1. Go walk around in the front yard (except mom puts on that stupid harness thing!)

2. Hunt for birdies!!!

3. Sit under the big huge hedge by our front door and watch things through the leaves.

4. Sleep on my favorite fuzzy blanket when it's too hot to play.

5. Wait for mom to give me leaves from the catnip plant in the backyard (it's hanging too high for me to get them myself).

Okay, here's who I will tag:

My girl Sophie
Goaldie
Pooter's
Jason
OWP

My brief but excellent adventure

This morning I learned a new and valuable skill--how to get on the roof of our house! I just jumped from the ground up to the box that makes the house cool, then to another box on top of that (don't know what that one does) and it was a short hop to the roof from there. Mom didn't see me until I was already up, and boy did she freak out! She kept calling and calling me, as I happily wandered around the top of the house. She even brought out a fresh can of food. Tempting, but I resisted. I'd peek over the edge once in a while, but she couldn't reach me. Ha ha! She got on a chair and tried to get me to come to her, but I wouldn't. Finally, after not very long, I was peeking over the edge one more time and suddenly there she was just below me! I guess she got something to stand on, because she grabbed me and tried to pull me down. I resisted, since I was afraid of falling over the edge, but mom won and I had to get down.
We'll see what they try to keep this from happening again, eh?
