Yes friends, Mom has taken the week off so she and Dad can take all of us to the vets for our annual exams and shots. My doggie brothers were the first to go last Friday. They both got clean bills of health, a few shots and their nails trimmed.

Then on Tuesday, it was my turn. Mom scooped me off the floor and into the carrier. I was not happy at all. I screamed my way to the vets and I even peed in my carrier. Once there, I was as calm as can be (can't let strangers know you are scared). I was given two shots and loved on by the vet and the techs. The vet gave me a clean bill of health except Mom has to pay a little more attention to my back teeth when brushing.

The ride home was nice and quite. I didn't scream at all. Mom thinks it is funny how we all know when we are on our way back home. MOL

All is well around here and I will let my brothers and sisters tell you about their visits to the vet.

Loving Purrs,
Miko

Glad you got a clean bill of health, Miko.

Do more than one of you go to the vet at one time? Our mom can't decide whether she likes to take us together or separately. We don't want to go at all!

Beepers,

The reason Mom took the week off is because there are nine of us including my two doggie bros and we all go to the vet separately except for them. The doggies are litter mates and don't do well when separated. Us cats on the other hand do not do well when there is more than one of us on a car ride.

Dad drives and Mom always sits in the back with us so she can open the carrier and pet us to help keep us calm. She tried taking more than one of us to the vet at a time and found that we just fed off from each others screams and it became very stressful for everyone, including the humans.

Loving Purrs,
Miko

Miko, your mom needs another week off to recover from all those trips to the vet!

Luckily, the car ride doesn't bother Ashlynne or me, but Mom remembers how Scooter and SooLing yeowled in the car.

I'm glad your checkup went well. I hate the vet too. It's very skeery there.

It's okay to pee in the carrier - you can even poop in it if you want to! I usually talk all the way to the vet's office too. It's funny how we don't like that carrier until we get to the vet's office, and then we can't wait to get back in it!
