No. It's not a cat it's...
An un-programmable animal.
A four footed allergen.
A hair relocation expert.
A treat-seeking missile.
A lap-warmer with a built-in buzzer.
A small, furry lap fungus.

:lol: I remember some of those experiences! My very beloved and departed Tonkinese had to have medicine three times a day for the last year of his life. Let me tell you, the first month was quite a battle of the wills. Then, overnight, he became more resolved and took them pretty good. However, he would give me the most terrible looks, like I was a huge traitor. I was saving his life, but I felt guilty. Oh well!

Hey Linda,

I'm glad you liked the funnies, and I know what you mean. By the way, to the powers that be, I know Debbie's Cloud is the right place for less serious posts. Anyway, I identified with the funnies because of my cat's outrageous behavior at the vet's, and the difficulty I had with anti-conjunctivitis drops. I thought I'd taken in the devil's own! Take care and good luck with your own furry ones,

Chris
