Winsey's Rough Day

Winsey has had a big day. I took him in for all his shots as he was due a couple of months ago, but I didn't rush it since I was dealing with my own issues. Plus he's being boarded so it's not like he's going outside. Well, the poor guy started panting he was so scared. Then he pee'd once I put him back in the carrier. He hated everything from the carrier, to the car ride, to the vet visit, etc. He weighed in at 15.4 lbs and had good health except for his teeth have a lot of tarter and he has some gingivitis. This is due to all the can food. They want me to feed him this prescribed diet to help crack the tarter off, but I can't start that at the moment seeing as he's cageless. They also want to do the whole teeth cleaning with anesthesia, but my gosh that would just scare the guy silly. Plus, I've heard of a couple of cats that died from the procedure - and I'm sure there's nothing to worry about, but I just can't put him through it at the moment (plus it's expensive!). So I will try the new dry food eventually and see if he likes it.

Now we're at the motel 6. We both slept the afternoon away and then I went out to eat leaving him to sleep some more in the bed. He finally left the bed about 10 minutes ago and is wandering around meowing. He ate some, but I think he's more bored so I'll have to end soon and go give him some love. lol, he just jumped back in bed. Such a sleepy babe. I pet wiped him to help with the urine earlier, but his bath is scheduled for Monday.

Miss Kitty was giving me the guilt trip when I went to the Inn today to switch the boys. Poor girl. She actually likes being boarded though which is why I chose to bring the boys here.
