THANKFUL THURSDAY (For One Of Us)

I open the closet.
What do I see?
June in her Lollimeow,
looking up at me!


Surprise, you surprised me!  I was just about to grab my shopping cart and bags.
It's senior day at Harris Teeter, time to do our marketing.
What are you doing in your Lollimeow?  You HATE being in there ...

I kinda thought I'd make it easier for you this time. 
Don't I have to go to that awful dreadful terrible 
I-Don't-Want-To-Go-To-The-Vet place today?

Oh, thank you Juney dear, but that day is next week,
you can get in Lollimeow next week and if you do it all on your own
like a really good kitty girl it will be easier for me ...
and I won't have to give you those pills that make you
all loopy-dopey-silly all day long!


S'riously?  No crazy pills in my breakfast bowl.
Now that is a bit of an incentive, I do not like the way those things make
me all loopy-dopey-silly, however ... little does she know that the minute
she's out the door, off to market, I'm outta this thing,
never to set paw in here again for the rest of my nine lives!

Your one free-pass opportunity missed mine Mommy.
So I'm thankful.  But she is purrably is not.

    1. To Kea and Lynn ~ of course she won't! Even with the gabapentin, I'll be lucky if she doesn't go to the top of the kitchen cabinets, the one place I cannot get her. I know she "senses" my stress well ahead of time and that's part of the problem. The Lollimeow is now sitting out in her play area just to get her used to it ahead of time ... with an occasional treat or toy tossed inside for her to grab-and-run!

  3. Gramma has one of those for her kitty too. Sometimes her cat goes in there for a nap, but she never wants to leave the house again either.

  4. It was good of you to go in there even if you didn't time it right, June. Or maybe you did time it right!

  9. Haha brilliant. Yup in this week and she won't be next week! I like the look of those carriers. I have the usually type for my cats!! I usually put a tshirt I have had on in the carrier so it has my scent in it. Cats really don't like the vets do they, especially when there are loud barking excited dogs there!

  16. Oh June, we know those vet trips can be stressful. But just think of it as an exciting adventure. Maybe if you are really a good girl and cooperate, your Mommy will get you some new springs.

  19. Ah, well, at least it happened once, and who knows, sometimes strange stuff happens and people or kitties change their minds.
