Mancat Monday: Carmine Update


Hi everyone, Carmine here.

Last week the Mom took mes to the evil Stabby Place again for my monthly B12 shot.  Mes never likes to go to the Stabby Place!  

While we waited for Dr. Stabby, a nice lady came to pet mes.  The Mom says the lady works at the shelter and that hers is really nice.  Mes just stayed in my PTU and let hers pet mes.  Mes doesn't like to come out of my PTU in strange places like Milita does!   

Dr. Stabby called mes back, and before mes knew it, the Mom was taking the top off my PTU.  Then mes had to go on the scale where Dr. Stabby told the Mom mes had gained 3 ounces in that month.  The Mom was very pleased because hers though mes might have lost weight when mes had that upper respiratory infection.  

The Mom told Dr. Stabby hers wanted to see if probiotics (whatever that is) would help mes, so Dr. Stabby sold the Mom some Fortiflora.  Mes doesn't mind eating it on my food.  The Mom also gives mes pumpkin to help me stay regular.  Mes likes pumpkin, so mes doesn't mind.

Dr. Stabby said hers didn't want to see mes for a whole month!  The Mom told mes that mes needs to stay healthy so mes doesn't have to go back to the Stabby Place before the new year.  So mes is going to try hard to stay well!

By the way....did you see where mes is in my photo?  Mes is in the green and blue cube!  Mes still spends a lot of time in Angel Jewel's pink cube, but the Mom says hers is proud of mes for being more social lately.  Mes has been spending time out in the living room in my box bed and sometimes in the green and blue cube while the Mom helps us with our blogging and visiting.  

The Mom here.  I asked the vet if she thought Jewel's pink cube was helping or harming Carmine, and she said she wasn't sure.   So for now, I've decided to let Carmine keep using it.  Like he said, he has been more social lately, and as long as he's not isolating himself in the pink cube, I don't mind if he wants to spend some time in there.
