I’ve been reading about my other fur people friends who have had to make trips to the doctor people.  Even Hemingway had to go see our doctor man, but I thought I was safe ‘cuz Mom didn’t mention anything and there wasn’t any scribbling on that calendar thing on the wall.

The other night she brought up my “carry me out of the house” holder.  I was skeptical at first but she just put it down and walked away.  When she didn’t do anything more about it, I figured she brought it up so I could sleep in it without Hemingway bothering me.

Today Mom got home early from work and first thing I knew, she put me in the “carry me out of the house” holder and took me out to her car.  Hemingway stayed in the house and I swear I heard him laughing.  We went for a short ride but I let Mom know I was not happy at all with this adventure.  Then when we got to the VCA Bloomington Animal Hospital (http://www.vcahospitals.com/bloomington/home) I announced my arrival loudly and firmly!  I’m not sure why the humans in there were laughing at me.  Even Mom was giggling!  I was trying to sound very ferocious!

Now, take a look at this:

See that hand?  That hand belongs to Jeff and I just know he made the scale say I weigh lots more than I do.  He claims I weigh a little over 15 pounds.  Well, if you take your hand away, Jeff, you might discover I’m actually a lean 11 pounds.  Hemingway…..you better check and see if Jeff did the same thing to you.  I think Jeff just wants our doctor man to tell us to go on diets!

I’m also not speaking to Mom right now.  She told the doctor man to give me a manicure and a pedicure.  I thought that meant I was going to get some neat fish or something.  When I found out he was going to take me out of the room so I couldn’t see Mom, I knew I was in trouble.  So I yelled.  And I yelled.  And I yelled.

Mom tried to take a picture of me when the doctor man came back with me but she said she was laughing so hard that she couldn’t hold the camera still.  She said she heard me throughout the building.  She says to apologize for the poor quality of this picture, but I say she shouldn’t have taken it anyway so it serves her right!

So, that’s how my Thursday went.  How was yours?  By the way, the doctor man said I was very healthy and that I didn’t have any problems…..other than not liking to come visit him!
