Tuesday Haikusday: The Vet

I went to the doctor yesterday. First of all, I’d like you to know I didn’t use a carrier. For the first time, I used a harness and buggy. It was WAY cooler. I could see everything! And I looked like a princess being wheeled around while people held doors open for us. Fantastic. And then, Dr. C kissed me! She did! And I let her. It wasn’t so bad, actually. So here are a few poems about it. Eh hem…

Poop samples don't come easy for everyone.
Poop samples don’t come easy for everyone.

Wheeled in my buggy

Because I am royalty.

Take that, Blue Ivy.

.

The needle poked me

Calm thoughts, breathing, and courage.

I am a tigress.

.

Full of pride was I,

til the poop in a baggie.

How embarrassing.

In case you were wondering, my back is straight, my stump is ok, and I am well!

  • So glad you got out alive from the Stabby Place, Crepes! Mom uses several different vets depending on what the problem seems to be…sometimes the Housecall Vet or the one who has an on-site lab where she can get the blood results back in 20 minutes. We prefer the Housecall Vet! But for those occasions when we have to road trip:

    Going to the vet
    Stuffed into the carrier
    Screaming all the way

    Don’t like road trips much
    Mom drives like a maniac
    I use the seat belt

    Now I’m at the vet’s
    No needles or nasty pokes
    It was not sooo bad

    On the road again
    Praying I get home alive
    Plotting my revenge

    Purrs,
    Serafina, Arya, Angel Natasha Velvetpaws, Bean, Iggy, Teddy, and Useless

  • SO happy to hear you got the “all clear” from the vet guy…….I go to the vet with my harness and leash NOT a PTU because I think they are too scary and confining and yucky. I wonder if I’d like a buggy……not sure…..at my age I may need one soon anyway just to get around! HAHAHA

    Hugs, Sammy

  • That definitely sounds like a fun way to travel, and we love today’s haiku. X0, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo

  • Woot Woot for the great Haiku and good news at the V.E.T.! You are the Queen for being brave and going in your stroller! Wish we lived closer so I could volunteer Mom to help you.

  • so happy that all went well at the vet! If you want to post your info about needing volunteers on Cody’s fan page…feel free! Once you post I will make sure it gets into the thread if you want to do that.

  • We’re glad you checked out okay, Crepes. You’re very brave to go on just a harness and leash. We like to sit in our PTUs and sing at the top of our lungs.

  • I’m going to the vet today! I need my rabies shot and my first checkup with the vet my human goes to. I don’t get to wear the harness, though because I only had it on for the first time last night and my human wants to make sure I don’t associate it with any “bad experiences.” Although I don’t see why going to the vet is bad… they have a table like they do at cat shows, right? And those are lots of fun!
