Easy Like Sunday, the Saturday Edition

We both let our mom take photos of us yesterday while we were taking it easy.  You know how bad we've been slacking at posting, so we thought we'd better take our opportunity to post our "Easy" shots when we got the chance.  Here is me, all SEVEN pounds of me in a teeny tiny warm kitty ball.
And here is ME, chilling in one of my bajillion beds.  This one is inches away from the radiator space heater.
My mom spoke to the vet yesterday, and we're not going to do the surgery to remove my little growth.  The cardiologist said my EKG results could mean a couple of different things, so nothing was conclusive.  The very nice vet said that because of my age, he didn't want to stress me out with more tests, and without really knowing what was or wasn't going on with my heart, he really didn't want to put me under.  My mom thinks she's somehow going to be able to take a better look at that spot and see for herself what's going on.  I don't think so.  I'm not bothered by it - I don't pick at it or anything.  And I'm acting the same as I always have - I sleep a lot, I run, I play, I purr.  So there is nothing to worry about. :)  Thank you all for the purrs, though - it really meant a lot to me.  I would request that you direct all purrs to Miss Parker.  She's just a young thing and her vet results were not as good as mine.  We're both sending all of our purrs to her and her family. 

Have a super weekend, Friends!

Fuzzy's Vet Report

My Vet Report
by Fuzzy

Sorry I have no photo to show you - I refuse to pose for my mom after being abandoned at the vet for 4 hours.  But guess what?  I got a good report!  My bloods are perfect!  My EKG was a little wonky, but that is probably from being stressed out.  The results are being sent over to a cardiologist to check them out, just in case.

Fuzzy had an anal probe!

Zoe, STOP SAYING THAT!  I did not have an anal probe.  I had to have my *anal glands* expressed.  But... are you ready for the best news???  I gained TWO POUNDS!  That may not sound like a lot, but I gained 40% of my body weight in just a few months!  I was 5 pounds at my last senior exam (which my mom cannot remember when it was, but it was this year).  Now I weigh 7.2 pounds!  Yay! 

For a while now, I have had this little knot on my side.  At my last visit, the vet said it was a clogged oil gland (we think - we forget details sometimes).  It has changed over the last month or so, but I will not let my mom look at it.  I also would not let the vet look at it!  But I am scheduled to go in next Wednesday and have it removed, as long as the cardiologist doesn't think my EKG is bad.  We're not really worried, this will be a piece of cake.  I may also get my teef cleaned - I tried to bite the vet when he wanted to look at them this morning. hehe

Zoe's Vet Report

My Vet Report
by Zoe
I weigh 11.72 pounds.  That's one pound more that last year and almost 3 pounds more than when I was adopted 2 years ago.  So what?

I am very healthy!  My heart sounds good and I don't have werms.  I don't need an anal probe.  What, Mom?  Oh, sorry, I don't need my anal glands expressed.  I just scootch my bum across the floor to keep my floofy pants clean.  So what?

Fuzzy goes for her senior exam on Thursday.  She probably will need an anal probe.  What, Mom?  Sorry.  Fuzzy will probably need her anal glands expressed. 

I am so very thankful and happy that SO MANY friends stopped by like TEN days ago to wish me a happy gotcha day!  We were trying to get around to thank everyone, but we don't seem to get very far each day.  We're so very sorry - we promise we will visit all of you eventually. Our mom will wrap up one of the things that has been occupying her time and mind tomorrow (hopefully), so we're hoping she'll be a little more accommodating after that!

Super Sunday

One of my first photos in my Forever Home!
Hi Everybuddy!  Guess what!!!  Today is my GOTCHA DAY!  Two years ago today, I came to live in my forever home!  Instead of sharing a place with 30+ other cats and having several nice ladies come visit me every day, I came to live in a place with only 1 other cat and only 1 lady to come see me every day!  I have all of the food I could ever possibly eat, tons of toys, lots of nice places to sleep, and no cats who bop me on the head!  I also don't have to live with any pesky kittens that I need to bop on the head to keep in line.  And just as good as all of those other things, I have a blog and LOTS of super duper friends from all over the world!  Life is good when you're gotted!

Love, Zoe
