Two days ago, Andy and Dougy had an appointment with Dr. Dave, their veterinarian, for an annual check up and shot update. Dougy made it; Andy went into hiding when I tried to find him to put him in the carrier.

He was mighty pleased with himself…:

Well, Buster Brown! You just delayed the inevitable! I’m working smarter today (I hope), and have no intention of a repeat of Monday. You will see your veterinarian today, Andy, and you will like it!

The boys are much too clever for their own good. They pick up on clues much too easily. They know what happens when I dress a certain way. If one’s put in the carrier, they guess that the other soon will be, too. Don’t be confused on this point: They may be sweet little Persian cats, but they are smartypants and get away with it all too often!

Andy’s veterinarian appointment is at 1:30 pm. By ye gods, he will be there!
