Time for your medicine...that's a good girl.

The desire to take medicine is perhaps the greatest feature which distinguishes man from animals.

William Osler quotes (Canadian Physician, 1849-1919)

She actually takes the half pill for her UTI with no problem. It's tucked into an apparently tasty salmon flavored pill pocket . That has to be one of the greatest innovations in feline medicine. Gone are the days of slimy, fang sliced fingers and spit out gummy, crumbled blobs impossible to find or re-insert. Tiny improvement in her litter box straining, but she otherwise seems just perfect. She was in full attendance at the meeting here last night, but was forced to miss the refreshment break due to her uncontrollable fondness and enthusiasm for my Swedish Almond Cake. Max played greeter and retired to his bed, cake is of no interest to that gentleman.

I just sent this photograph to the woman who owns the shop where we buy our cat food & supplies. I'm taking some photos there tomorrow for their facebook page. The store has moved and really expanded, and they want to show off their new space. She just wrote back that they want to use Raspberry's photo...Wow, the Healthy Animal has expanded!!

Practicing for Halloween

For the Record, This day came in as yesterday, but cloudier with heavy morning fog. Impossibly humid, with unseasonable heat, it's just a disgusting stretch of weather. Medication will be needed for all of Massachusetts soon if this keeps up.
