Momma finally came back last night and rescued me from Not-the-Momma's house. I wasn't too happy to be put in the carrier again, but once I got home and the boys were evicted from my bedroom, I was quite happy. The happiest I've been in a long time. So happy that I meowed repeatedly for Momma to come in and pet me while I purred.
This afternoon Momma threw me in the carrier and took me and the orange IT to the vet. IT 2.0 had the nerve to hiss at me in the car. I meowed the whole way there, and at the vet's I had to endure the usual insults and humiliation. Stupid people in the waiting room said they thought I was a dog because I was so loud. I also heard the usual comment that I have "the perfect meow." A woman told Momma that my meow is so perfect it sounds fake. I told her to come closer and see if my claws were fake as well, but she didn't.
I had an audience in the exam room as well. In addition to the vet and vet tech and Momma and IT 2.0, there were also 2 vet students of some sort. I was not happy and fought like h-e-double hockey sticks. I yelled and screamed and scratched and squirmed this way and that way. I hissed in the vet's face. It was exhausting.
They took me into the torture chamber and stole my blood and piddle. I screamed repeatedly. When they brought me back into the exam room, the vet told Momma that I was very cooperative. Then he said, "Not really." Hmpf! Everyone's a comedian.
As if that wasn't bad enough, tonight I was locked in the bedroom and Momma was glued to the TV in the living room and wouldn't come stay with me. Then the thunder and lightning started and Momma threw me back in the cat carrier! I yelled a few times and she brought me in the living room and put me in the closet! The thunder and lightning was really, really bad. Momma was scared.
There were 7 tornadoes in the western part of the state this afternoon and we were under a tornado watch. I forgot what it was like to have to worry about tornadoes. We had them in Tennessee where I was born, but I've been in Boston for 11 years and we've never had them around here.
