Evil cat's health check

Evil cat has been taken to the vet. Poor man. She did not go gently into that cat basket but fought and hissed and spat (but not scratched, bless) while little bear watched with amazement. I saw dear heart take her off in the car with some trepidation.

Well, the vet was very pleased with evil cat as she is doing really well. She has put on a very small amount of weight and her urine is appropriately whatever it is (I believe it's density is good - which makes a change from her fur).

She has yucky gunk on her eyes, due to her kidney condition, and apparently her stiff left fore leg is actually stiff because it is over compensating for the problem with her right fore leg where the problem actually is and the problem is again due to her condition.

Now, because of her leg, she has to now go back to the vet for the next three weeks to have an injection. Can you imagine what it will be like on the fourth Sunday in a row, trying to coerce a maddened tabby explosion into a cat basket? It may not take until then for her to work it out, but even she has enough brain cells to think things through eventually. It could be worse, it could be every day. I shudder at the thought.

The vet, according to dear heart, was astonished that evil cat was not on medication, merely on diet. Well, evil cat is obviously traumatised any time she is exposed to little bear who always shrieks twice the decibel level of Concorde when he sees her. And she has no furry playmates to make suffer. But she does have good grub, good kipping spots and is not expected to do anything energetic.

I am going to be worrying so much. Even when she is perched across my throat and I am missing the vital clue in the detective film. Even when she is trying to feloniously extract a piece of fish finger from little bear's plate. Even when she deliberately moves away from vinyl flooring to carpet to vomit with a theatrical performance that would make Olivier green with envy. I have known her for nearly fifteen years, and there are far too few characters around. I hope I get to be tormented by her for a long time to come.
