A Day in the Life of a Sugar Kitty

Been a long time since I've updated

I've been off insulin for a while, so no more needles. But now the vet thinks my kidneys aren't doing so well. I'm drinking more water (Mom bought me a cool new water dish - actually it's a fountain). Mom's giving me pills. Yuck! And she tried to get me to eat that nasty wet food, but I refused. She did change my regular food. It's alright, but not real tasty. Mom says I have to go back to the vet in a couple weeks to see how my kidneys are doing on the new diet. It sucks getting old.

The horror

Went to that awful place the other day. Mom says I need to, but I don't believe her. They embarrassingly announce my weight, stick me with needles (much bigger than the ones mom uses*for insulin) and otherwise harass me. I tried to hide in mom's coat, but then she moved away from the table so I couldn't reach her. That was so mean. I just don't like going to the vet!!

It's been so long

Mom's been avoiding the computer lately. Something about wasting too much time on it, so I haven't been able to write. Nothing particularly important going on. Mom's been rearranging some furniture, but left my stuff alone.

She's still sticking me with sharp objects. Not good, but I haven't had to go to the vet as often. Very good.

Mom did tell me some sad news though. One of her friends dogs was killed this last weekend. She said he was a wonderful dog. I didn't think one of those existed, but I'll take her word for it. She was very upset by it.

Well, typing is hard work. I think it's time for a nap.
