Sheesh! Whatta Day That Was

Kitties, I'll tell you what!  Just because I didn't eat, drink, make a clump in the box nor a poopy for getting on to two full days, she hauled me off the the dreaded v-e-t.
'
I was in a good mood for pity sake and I played, I loved my brushies, I slept in the bed so what'cher prob, Lady?

Anyway, I finally got my temp taken (I prefer to put that in the back of my mind) my undercarriage prodded, my little heart and lungs spied upon.  Nothing. So then, the baseline blood test!  They stole my BLOODS! And they took their durned time doing it too!  Mom had to hear me screaming for at least (no kidding) 8 minutes.  She asked what on earth was wrong and they said my veins were so small that had to use both of my beautiful legs! I know mom said maybe it was dehydration!!! That makes veins hard to find.  And I was telling them off in the best possible language I possessed that I hated HATED being held down, scruffed and treated like that!  The end results were told to mom via a call later in the afternoon.  My bloods are fine too.  I got my claws shorn as well!  Good GRIEF!

A friend told mom I may be bored with my foods so she went and got the aromatic Royal Canin and sure enough I scarfed it down.  She said she was about to clean my box so we'll see if it brought any results!  It did.  Two poopies and a nice clump or two.  Boycats, do NOT read this.  None of your business.

I bet that was THE last time I will ever go into my PTU without a fight as I always have done till yesterday's outrage.

See my white piggies?

Poor Katie, but it is so much better to be safe than sorry. We are so glad all the tests came out so well. That is such good news. Take care.

Fuzzy Tales said...

Aww, Katie, we're sorry for your ordeal. The humans who love us so much tend to panic at the slightest thing, though. At least you're fine!

SailorEdgar said...

Well, Katie, if you weren't such a picky eater, your Mom wouldn't get so worried. Food for thought! :-)

Terri said...

It's times like these that kitties need to be able to talk! We're glad you like your new noms. Sorry about the claws :(

Saku said...

My mom certainly understands your mom's worry, but between you and me, I think the two of them need to find a hobby! That was an awful ordeal to have suffered, Katie.

Pee Ess: My old sis Sophie had little veins, too. Stealing blood from her was a similar trial.

Nellie said...

I'm glad there is nothing seriously wrong with you, Miss Katie! Be sweet, now! xo

Cathy Keisha said...

Whoa! This brings back horrid memories. That’s what that Hoboken butcher was trying to do—steal my blood—when they turned me upside down and put me in respiratory distress. TW heaerd mme screaming and screaming from the back room. I’ll NEVER go back there. Yesterday, TW was upset cos I only gave her one pee and no po’s. Then I poo’ed and later at night, I pee’d again.

Tamago said...

Oh no, I'm sorry for the ordeal, Katie san :-( It's horrible that it took so long for them to take your blood. Poor baby. But I totally understand your mom's worry. And I'm so glad you are okay and ate the new food! I hope you won't have to go to the vet for a long time.
I wish you a nice relaxing weekend :-)

Brian's Home Blog said...

Dang pretty Katie, that sure isn't a fun way to start the weekend! We are sure glad you are okay though!!!

Vanessa Morgan said...

Poor baby. I hope the blood works will turn out fine.

ANGEL ABBYGRACE said...

AWWWW Katie we are so sorry to hear you had to go through that. WE know it was horrible for both you and your Mom.
We think the photo of you is beautiful did you Mom use her new camera to get that? It's really just so lovely of you.

The Furries of Whisppy said...

Oh noes, Katie! What a terrible ordeal you had to go through at that stabby place.

Being dehydrated DOES make it difficult to locate a vein. I'm glad the bloodwork came back good and that you're just probably a little bored of your old food. Please eat your foods and drink your water normally, Darling. You don't want to worry your Mommy as you know she'll have to bring you to the vet to make sure you are fine.

Mommy made a new batch of jerky yesterday so I'll bring some over for us to snack on while we snuggle and watch the stars?

Much Love,
Your Boomie

Beth said...

I saw glad that you are fine Miss Katie. Mom was doing what she thought was best for you! xx

Annie Bear said...

I love the aromatic food too. Wow, Katie, that sure was a lot you went through. Our mom's are such worrywarts and we pay the price! Well, at least you know you're healthy! That's the best news.

Summer at sparklecat.com said...

Sheesh, Katie, that was a lot of trauma and drama for normal test results! I would be annoyed with your worrywart human too, that's for sure!

LP said...

We are happy all the tests came out purrfect Katie! Now stop worrying your Mama unnecessarily and eat your fuds...bored or not! :p

the critters in the cottage xo

The J-Cats said...

Oh, poor Katie! What an ordeal. But you must try to put it out of your mind. Come to our Welcome Shimshi pawty tomorrow and we'll help you forget it (mol). Caspurr will prepurr a special Catmint Julep for you and you can have any flavour of micecream you want.

A Tonl said...

Mowzers! We'd avoid the PTU after that, too! And that photo of you is LOVELY!

Memories of Eric and Flynn said...

What a terrible day Katie, but I am glad everything is all right.

Mickey's Musings said...

Donna said...

Oh noes! Not the v-e-t! I hope u got extra cuddles after that.

Angel Prancer Pie said...

Oh sweetie, we hate to hear that you suffered such indignities!

So glad to hear that you are ok, though. It was sweet of your Mom to go buy you some new foodables. (We eat that aromatic RC and love it, too.)

Hoping that this weekend is much less uneventful for you.
>>smoochies<<

Katnip Lounge said...

The INDIGNITY of it all! What is it with Mommies...can't we vary our schedules once and a while?

::sheesh::

Clooney said...

Oh dear Katie, what an ordeal for sure but we are so glad that everything checked out and that you ate your new food and did all the other stuff you did (wink)! We hope that it is all smooth sailing from here, have an easy Caturday, you deserve it!

Gigi said...

Sheesh. And they stole your sharpies so you can't even properly express your disapproval of the proceedings. Well, they'll grow back my sweet, oh yes they will. And then you can has your revenge! Now, being that you're such a nice girl, I guess you won't scratch your Mommy--but there's a lot of nice furniture there for the shredding. Meanwhile, come on over for a midnight snack, my sweet! XOXOXOX

Kitties Blue said...

Cutest photo ever, Katie. Some kitties can lose some of their sense of smell for any number of reasons, even allergies, and not be able to smell their food. When this happens, they can stop eating. Your may be experiencing this and the new or stronger aroma got your attention. Our angel Steamer developed this problem. That's why all of us get stinky goodness now. It was started to entice her to eat. XO, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo

Mercy! Sweet Katie was there any place on your beautiful self that they didn't intrude upon? We are sorry you had to go through all that but we sure are glad to know all is well. And hey!! You got some good smellin' fuds!!! Yeah!! Hugs and nose kisses

Hannah and Lucy said...

Oh dear Katie Mum is running behind with everything and so we've only just seen your news. Thank goodness there was nothing wrong with you. Has your Mom got a crush on the vet as it seemed as though she couldn't wait to get there with you?? BTW the only time we can't wait to get into our PTUs is when we've just been ladyhandled by the vets (ours is an all lady vets stabby place).
Luv Hannah and Lucy xx xx

Laila and Angel Minchie said...

I hear ya, Katie! I got dragged off to the v-e-t this week too and had my bloods stolen. Glad all is good for you now sweetie!

Jans Funny Farm said...

8 minutes of torture? They should be fined for exceeding the bloodgathering limit! We don't blame you for vowing to fight from now on. :) We're glad you are okay.

Memories of Eric and Flynn said...

You said you wanted to see more of Eric's rose, so we are including it and the cat's memorial garden in our Sunday post.

Rita said...

Oh goodness! I am glad you are okay after your ordeal and that you like your new food.

meowmeowmans said...

That sounds like a rotten day to us, sweet Katie. Except for those extra aromatic fuds!

We are glad you are doing okay, dear friend.

Hugs to you and Mommy!

Pip said...

M made me go through the same thing last week! Worry, worry, worry. Just because there's no poopies for a couple of days or I shake my head or talk a lot. M thinks for sure there is something wrong. The vet says no but says better to be safe. But they worry. That's just the price of having a loving human.

XOXO Nik
