UPDATE

October 4, 2008 by Lauren 13 Comments

So we went to the vet this morning and yes, there was prodding, and yes, we are exceedingly grateful for the muzzle.  Cricket had an infection of her anal glands (if you have a strong stomach, you can read about it here), and so Dr. Ellis had to ‘express’ them, which would have killed us all if we hadn’t used the muzzle.  She got a shot, and now she’s in the bathroom cursing. Happy Saturday! What a calming backdrop.

    We had a cat that had the same problem, but all the time. The vet had to remove them! Finally she was a nice cat to be around!

    Should have had her face Dr. Ellis, he’s soooooooooo handsome! (In a very young, “I could be your mom” sort of way!)

    I don’t get it. Who’s getting the probing? Cricket or the guy in the striped shirt?

    I am SO glad that, although gross, it’s something that can be treated. Yay Cricket!
