The vet comes to visit

Evil cat is on painkilling meds that need three monthly checks. We can't take the cat to the vet, and I thought that if evil cat hadn't seen a vet in a bit, and she was feeling calm in her own home, then it couldn't be too bad.

Wrong.

It started okay, evil cat graciously accepted a cuddle and the vet admired how well she was doing. However as soon as the vet tried to examine her, evil cat fought back. The vet, bless her, did let evil cat have loads of breaks to calm down, lots of fuss, and didn't complain, but evil cat swore, yowled, struggled, fought, hissed, spat and scratched. She drew blood, while uttering blood curdling threats. Little bear was off school and watched, wide eyed from the sofa, and if he repeats any of the words that evil cat used I shall be very upset.

The verdict - evil cat is doing fine. We have to watch out for the side effects of the meds. See us again, with protective clothing, in three months.
