Frootbat Friday

I'm not feeling too well today. My 'tocks problem has come back again. Momma thinks it's because she was running out of chicken and rice and gave me too much kibble too soon (thanks a lot, Mom - grrrrr) eased me back into kibble too fast. So this morning I got rice and egg whites for breakfast. It was pretty tasty. But I might have to go to the V-E-T tomorrow if I'm not acting better today. What a drag! Plus, Mom hates going to the V-E-T on Saturday because it's always super busy and I don't really like other dawgs and it's usually a big drag for both of us because we have to sit on the cat side of the waiting room but lots of cat moms and dads are afraid that I'll eat their cats but they don't know that I really prefer cats to other dawgs and it's just really a pain in the 'tocks and now that Mom thinks about it, she might just send me and Dad.

Hope everyone has a great Froot-batty Friday!

PS - There's probably gonna be a Gotcha Day party for the twins sometime next week. Their GD is Monday, but Momma's a little busy with drinking adult beverages after the week she's had other stuff right now.

Furry Kid Friday (V-E-T UPDATE below)

These are my furs. Aren't they great? During shedding season (I get two a year - spring and late summer), I lose my undercoat. This means that for me, my hair comes out in chunks. It also means a lot of brushing (yippee!) and lots of vacuuming (boo!) at our house. I shed so much that Mom doesn't even know if the twins shed because my furs just take over.

As you can see from the pictures of our carpet shown above, I work hard at leaving my furs all over the house. But then Mom comes along with the stupid vacuum and sucks up all my furs and I have to start over. It is very frustrating. I think everything looks much better when it's covered in my furs.

In other news, I have to go to the V-E-T today. I don't get to see my favorite V-E-T, Dr. C., but Mom tells me that Dr. P. took really good care of EG, so I'll like her (well, as much as I like any V-E-T). I'm due for my shots and heartworm test, but I'm still having a bit of a 'tock problem and Mom wants to get that checked out (which means she has to bring a "sample" heh heh from home). Wish me luck!

UPDATE on the V-E-T visit: Dr. P says I probably have some sort of bacterial butt thing or parasite and that I probably got it from eating something extremely tasty gross outside (like a dead thing or rabbit poo - mmmmmm). My poo sample was soooo stinky that all the girls in the back were talking about it. It was very embarrassing. Dr. P is going to call Mom tomorrow with the results of my tests. I got some medicine to "calm my digestive tract" and Mom just has to keep an eye on me until we know for sure what's up with my 'tocks. I did not get any shots today (yay!!!) because Dr. P wanted to find out what was making my 'tocks so angry before I got my vaccinations. The bad news is that I have to go back and get them as soon as my 'tocks feel better.

I also met a very nice dawg at the V-E-T's office. Her name is Muffin. She is a white poodle with curly furs just like Dr. Daisy and my Mom. She is 16 years old. She wouldn't take her medicine today and wouldn't eat anything except half a popsicle, so her mom brought her in so the V-E-T could look at her. I've never had a popsicle before but I think I would like it. My Mom says she likes the orange ones best, but Dad says he likes red.

PS - Dr. Daisy, I did not rat you out (sorry Poi clan) to the V-E-T. Your medical license is safe. :)
