Dear Diary,

Mom had to take me to the doctor again this weekend. I was having trouble tinkling in the litter box. I thought it was really wierd that on Saturday, there was no litter in the box. Maybe Mom forgot or something. Whatever, I went anyway. But then Mom got really excited - dude, it was just pee for pete's sake. But she poured it in a jar and ran out the door with it. People are SO weird.

Turns out, there were crystals and some blood in that jar she took - which I later found out - to the vet. So she packed me up in my carrying cage and off we went to the doctor. I hate that place. All the dogs barking make me nervous, plus, something always hurts. Bleck.

I had an x-ray. I had to be really still, which was REALLY hard. Then they combed me - I was so scared, I let them. (Usually, I bite Mom when she tries.)

The doc told Mom that there weren't any kidney stones, which was a good thing as far as I could tell. However, the doc also said that I had to start drinking more water and eat this prescription food. (Mom was a little shell-shocked at the more than $1 per can cost. I think it's nummy!)

Except now I have to eat this cat food mixed with water and some tuna-flavored glucosamine powder. Umm, it doesn't taste like tuna. Could one of you people tell the company that? I can't use the phone yet.

I'm not sold yet on this food soup thing, but I eat it anyway because Mom said it was this or nothing. I heard the vet say Mom could try and give me tuna juice. I keep waiting for that, so far, nothing. :( Mom says she has to go to something called the "store" to get it.

Well, it's time for a nap on Mom's bed. I'll keep you updated.
