Auntie Rori, is this how purrents are supposed to act? (Sherbet looks at Rori, who's sound asleep, snuggling next to him.) Mommy, why did you and Daddy double-team me with a big blankie at 4 in the morning? You wanted to put what on me? Flea medicine? I don't want them to get medicine; I want them off me. Oh? That's what flea medicine does? Is that why I don't feel them crawling around my nose so much now? Ok, I think. I'll forgive you for putting the stuff on me, but it'll take me a while to forgive Daddy for chasing me around the room and wrapping me up in the big blankie.
Mommy writes:
This was Sherbet's first time having flea medicine put on him, and he was thoroughly traumatized, as only a true feral can get from something like this. Rori decided to cheer him up by snuggling with him for hours; as the alpha of the household she knows that her job is to care for the others.
Getting flea medicine is no picnic for us non-feral kitties, so I can only imagine how much Sherbet must have disliked it!
ReplyDeleteI get flea medicine, too, S. And I'm not even a kitty! But mine comes with a treat, so I let it happen.... I hope you got a treat or two with yours.
