My favorite tech is now working elsewhere...a good 45 minutes away in another city. I won't have her to look forward to any more when I go to the Clinic. She said she could still come by for claw clipping. And she'll babysit me when mom goes away. Did mommy every tell you that when Angel Admiral was here...in the last year of her time with mommy, Admiral would hear mom on the phone making appointments with the v-e-t. Admiral was ill and had to go about once a week. When mom started talking, Admiral took off and stayed under the bed where mom could not get her. Mom had to go outside and make phone calls to the v-e-t. Seriously. Well, who knows? I may take a leaf from Admiral's book of rules.

Dearest Katie Isabella,
Oh, we already got for weeks that 'invitation' for the 'R' shot for both Barty boy and for the baby girl Speckie. Have waited till my birthday weekend was over with but next week we have to make that appointment call too. They HATE us for days afterward and yes, it makes them sick and very resentful.
Sending you hugs,
Mariette
Poor Katie, those trips are no fun but all will be okay sweetie.
Gee, that Admiral was one smart kitty ;)
It is hard for us to avoid the Vet.
Mum is pretty crafty when it comes to catnapping us.
Darn!!

Lovely Katie, we totally know exactly how you feel but... we all gotta go sometimes. And it is a shame that your fav tech went away, too.
Admiral was very smart and you are too. XO
Katie, y’know...I do the same thing as Admiral did. When I hear the mom talk on that phone thing, I head under the bed...no matter who she’s talking to.
Oh, that was me, Ernie.
Yikes, shots are no fun.
Funny enough, we all never pay attention about the vet visits until it's too late. Although I do want to say that when my human got up at 4 AM for the big trip we took today, I totally went to the litter box on my own because I knew something was up! But that was a positive trip.
We dont care when TBT talks on the phone. But we can tell when it is with the VET! ACK, our annual visits are due...
Oh Katie....even being the BESTEST GIRL EVER won't save you from a vet trip when you need a dreaded JAB. Be brave....I know you can!
Love, Teddy

Loves and licky kisses

You need to be a healthy girl as well as a good girl, Katie.
Oh, the things we kitties need to do to be healthy. And healthy is even better than being a good girl. If our Mom were talking on that talky thing, we'd be shocked first off because she doesn't have one, and secondly because she's not a talky thing person, and after all that shockiness, we'd probably knock that thing from her hand. And nope, we wouldn't feel one ounce of remorse for doing it.
Glad your favorite vet tech can still come see you :-)
I know your mom feels really bad to take you to the vet for dreaded s-h-o-t!
It's a good thing she talks into that thing so you have a heads up when trips to the v-e-t is coming. We're sorry your favorite tech won't be there but glad she'll still be visiting you and taking care of you at home. That photo of you is gorgeous!
That Admiral was sooo smart!!!!! Maybe it was the inflection in mom's voice? xoxo catchatwithcarenandcody
Kitties are smart and don't let anyone tell you differently! Annie knows too on the day no matter how careful I am.
How could anyone resist that face?!
Don’t worry, Katie. Those vet visits are over very quickly, especially for a shot. You’ll be back home before you know it.
Even so, the Admiral was a very smart cat.

Aww...I know you hate shots but they are to keep you healthy and well, Katie. You can do it--make your momma proud! (or run away)...lol xo Diana
Sweetie, tell your mommy to ask about PureVax if you aren't getting that brand of rabies vaccine. I had a Himalayan years ago that used to get sick after regular rabies vaccines. She had to have PureVax and did better after them.
Katie, trust Mom. She really does know best. xo
I am sorry you have to go to the dreaded vet and have a shot, Katie. I hope it all goes well for you with no reactions.
Poor baby, we all dread that shot too. Admiral sounds like a very smart kitty!
We all have to get our R shots this year too, Katie. We get the 3-year one, and *still* it's too often!
P.S. Admiral's brilliant reaction made our mom smile!
Oh, no, KI. What a bummer that your friend isn't at your vet anymore. That shot is a must, in any case. You can only bite the bullet (or the vet's paw) and get it, and hope there are treats and cuddles afterwards. Good luck, sweetie.
Love and licks,
Cupcake
Admiral was a very smart girl. It must have been so hard when Mommy had to take her to the vet weekly when she got sick.
Don't worry, Katie! This will just be a quick visit to the vet and then back to your regularly scheduled activities.
xxoo

Oh no, the dreaded needle!
Yikes...
Have a wonderful Sunday!

Poor Katie! We are sorry to hear you have to go the V-E-T. Mommy loves you so much, and it makes her sad and anxious, too, we bet. Love to you both.
Dear sweet Katie: That Admiral was as smartie for sure. She was rreally smart to pick up on a phone conversation. You are also very smart - it must run in the fmaily!!!
Poor Katie, we sure hopes you don't have to go to the ebil v e t office for a shot. But if you do, we know you'll be furry brave!
