Dave, mine always do the dying duck routine. they go all limp and lifeless and look up at you with those big mournful eyes. And to make it worse, they mew piteously and loudly.
rob, let us know how the puppy does. And if you like the vet.
Chicken- I saw in Bruges. Very good, very dark movie- Too depressing. I can’t say I liked it though because it did such a good job of making you depressed.
That must be one rough cat you’ve got there, DIBS. One of ours — the Turkish Van — will attack and intimidate big dogs, but is a sweetheart lap cat with people. We are trying him out in the front yard with a leash and harness to see if he can hang out with us outside without running across teh street.
Seriously, rob, Dr. Madden’s office is pretty mellow. Waiting room is never overcrowded. Cats stay in carriers and people take responsibility for their dogs. Keep yours on a short leash and it is unlikely you will need the muzzle. Madden and his staff are pros. Just be responsible and everything will be fine.
Kens- sorry- didn’t see your post. Yes- I have been to him and feel the same way. Dr. Maddox was my vet for years and I have never seen a better one. I was heartbroken when he retired- he was the best. Montrose does like the new guy- she had to have one of her cats put to sleep and she said he was very kind and compassionate with her. They also have a woman vet who comes in part time- I can’t stand her. She’s a b*tch. No pun intended.
your cat is 22 pounds? that’s the size of a large thanksgiving turkey!
*rob*
Speaking of naps, please wake me up when the cat discussion is over…zzzzzzzzzzz

He just got a little feisty when the vet was “doing things” to him…otherwise he’s a fine 22 lb. lap cat.
There are 2 cats across the small street from us in Philly who will both regularly stalk and gang up on dogs!!!! Its a riot to watch.

Houston, we have a problem.
I just tried this napping in the middle of the day thing.
I liked it.
UH-OH.

“they are called the “freelance brigade”
Also known as out-of-work media types. There are no “unemployed” journalists, only “freelancers.”
Yes, rob…they keep muzzles….I have a pic on my cellphone of one of our cats at the vet with the “Hannibal Lecter mask”
