Kako was a very good girl at the vet today.  She went in for her annual exam and vaccinations.

The vet said she’s doing quite well for a middle-aged cat.  That "middle-aged" remark elicited a few hisses and growls from her as she’s quite sensitive about her age and doesn’t believe that six-and-a-half years old is middle-aged at all (even for a cat).  As if trying to intentionally make her angry, he also added that she might have an extra pound or so while specifically pointing out her slightly adipose tummy.  This too incurred a wee bit of her wrath with another hiss and growl since even she knows that the prescription diet they’re on specifically due to her urinary tract problems (see this and this) is high in fat content and often causes felines to carry a small amount of extra weight.

Outside of her reaction to his cold-hearted verbal abuse, she was a very well-behaved girl.  She got all of her shots, physical exam and nails clipped, then she was sent on her way.

Since Kako was on her best lady-like behavior for the doctor, I think she more than deserves a treat today.
