Mancat Monday - The Truth About Moms

This bit of advice is for all the kitten tots out there. Here it is:



Moms will trick you. And they will KEEP tricking you. Just when you have their moves down, they come up with all new ways to trick. There oughta be a law...

Which is how I ended up at the Stabby Place Friday afternoon. On account of my ears being a bit wonky. I tried to tell her I was dealing with it, but we all know how well they listen. And yeah, I had some trouble that I didn't have before - I started hassling after they they went to town on cleaning my ears, but only because I was.. I was... hot. That's it. I was hot. And on the way home, I did it too. Clearly Mom didn't have the AC up high enough.

So now there is this stupid sticky stuff she forces down my ears TWICE A DAY. Just look what it's doing to my handsome orange furs!


Making a mess of everything, that's what is happening. I am sure my half yeast, half bacterial infection (ok, I don't know what that means, that's just what the Stabby Place lady told mom) will clear up without this awful sticky mess, Mom. Trust me. We can quit now.

PS: You'd think all this was enough but no. Would you believe the Beast Known As Vaccoom almost ATE my special pawprint blankie??! Mom wrested the blankie away from its hungry jaws, but why she ever let it out of its den in the first place...

Forget this. I'm going back to sleep.

  5. Oh Toby, I'm so sorry your mom tricked you! Though, I can't blame her too much 'cause I sometimes trick my boys, too (and release the Vaccoom)...! Sorry you have to deal with that messy medicine. I hope the infection will go away soon xoxo

  6. I'm so sorry, Toby. But ...... as a mom myself I have to say I would have done the same thing. Mom knew you needed to see the vet, and the medicine will fix you right up. Now about the vaccoom--I'm so glad Mom was able to rescue the blankie!!

  8. Toby, you've definitely got it rough! How 'bout a nice, big hairball in the middle of the hall, for someone to step on in the middle of the night? That'll teach 'em!

  14. Yeah, they will interpret the slightest scratching as "fleas". We dont have fleas. But sometimes there is an itch at our ears or neck. Humans scratch themselves sometimes and THEY dont have fleas (usually). TBT combs us to check regularly. But when Grampa was here EVERYTIME we scratched in the least, he would say "Your cat has fleas". We think human are obsessed by fleas.

    If they wanted to get rid of all the fleas, they should get rid of all the Evil Skwerls! Now THAT would help things a LOT!

  16. I know all about tricky mums Toby. My mum asks me if I want a cuddle and I say yes. The next thing I know is she's shoving pills down my throat.
    I hope your ears soon feel better. It was lucky she managed to save your blankie from the jaws of the evil sucky monster.
