What did your pet(s) do today?

I'd been hopeful since it was just a few days shy of one month since the last one and I honestly think he wouldn't have had one if the ear cleaning was done like the last time but the vet and tech I had last time weren't there and this tech did it completely different. Now we all know.

It's unfortunate that Oliver suffered for our mistake. That won't happen again. He's doing his impersonation of a camel with his lump of fluids on his back and side and is laying in the bed he only lays in when he really feels like shit. I failed as his advocate today but he still looked for me when they were stabbing and poking and prodding him so I think he may forgive me.

No medicine for him tonight. He's had enough and still has the wraparound bandage on his leg from the anti-seizure shot they gave him.

Oh, gosh, Gemme. I am so very, very sorry. He was really hanging in there. He loves you and knows you are in his corner! He sees it and he feels it.

Lechelco, the key to this whole treadmill thing is that if you turn it on, they WILL walk. What is the option? To fly off the back?

I know cats don't need exercise like dogs. Please, don't get me wrong, I am very active with my dog. He is a Jack Russell though (needs BIG TIME exercise), and I can't walk him long distances every day.
