The new little baby did not get her spay today. Vet ran the bloodwork on Scooter, found the poor thing had a rather low red blood cell count.

So Scooter was sulking all day today, hiding under our bed, refusing to look at me, only grudgingly allowing me to reach under and pet her. All this, over the vet trip. Brett finally gets home, and decides to try the old bribery trick...a few tablespoons of tuna, with a half-tablet of valerian crushed up … Continue reading Not a happy kitten…

I hate people who take in an innocent, trusting ball of … Continue reading I HATE People….
