Visiting the Vet
Tiger hates going to the vet.
She sits on the counter at the vet’s office. She’s safe from doggies up there.
Free range kitty. The assistant put some treats out for Tiger in the exam room, but Tiger just steps right over them.
Tiger tries to hide. “You can’t see me.”
She found a cat-sized hideout between the exam table and the wall.
Dr. Stan Perry at East Emporia Veterinary Clinic looks at her belly - she’s been licking hair off her belly and her back. Stan says that hair-pulling behavior can 1) hormone-related after being spayed, 2) an allergy kind of a thing, or 3) stress/psychological.
Poor kitty, she’s crazy in the head from living with me.
Tiger gets a cortisone shot.
Stan’s just a really nice guy. He’s been one of our vets for years.

He is nice. We’ve used them for years too. They’re fair with us, honest, and know their stuff. We’re heading in to see them tomorrow with four of our pets in tow.
That’s our vet place, too! And, Tiger did the same thing that Boots did last time–hiding between the table and the wall. Tiger’s a cute kitty.
That is our vet too. We have a cat that has to go in for a cortosone shot every month for a sensitive stomach.
They are also the vet for our daughter’s 7 cats and 6 dogs. One of their cats had something happen to one of it’s back legs this week. Had to have the leg removed Fri. It was released Sat. It is surprising how active that cat was after coming home from a 3 day stay at the vets. The first 2 days was to decide what to do with the leg. I think our daughter and son-in-law must be the vets best customers. I’m sure their pets have cost as much, or more, as their 4 children’s medical bills this past year.
