Poor Norman my old fat cat. He went to his annual check up and his weight is over 15 lbs. At least the vet. said he was big boned afterall! Norman needs to take an antibiotic and ear drops for the next week and so the vet. showed me how to give him a pill and do the ear drops. I thought no problem....I was wrong. The cat is pretty PO'd with me right now and didn't even sleep with me for a night. Brian and I have to work together to give the cat the pill...Brian wrenches the cat's head back and peels open his mouth and I then drop the pill in and flush it with a dropper of water. It's quite traumatic for all of us. The cat even found a new hiding place in the house this morning and it took me 20 minutes to find it. As for the ear drops, I manage to get them in his ear but usually can't hold his head tight enough. I then get sprayed by the stuff flying out of his ear after he thrashes his head around. I feel so bad that I'm going to hurt him but if he just hold still damn it....it wouldn't be so bad. I'm really dreading having to get up early every day this week to make sure the cat gets the pill before Brian leaves for work. Hopefully he doesn't claw me this week.
So this is a totally boring post..ha ha ha ha ha. I'm tired but it's not 9 o'clock yet so it's too early to go to bed so I'm wasting time on the computer.
