Vet visits and more vet visits

We have had a close relationship with our vet this month. The Wondermouse has been in for a check up and a check back and the Red Prince for a check up.

The first visit found a little issue with Beatrice Jean Charlotte Wondermouse Doig's pancreas and she got put on a steroid for a few weeks. A check back showed that it hadn't gotten better but no worse, so we are keeping her on the drug. She is quite thrilled. It is given in a sweetened "tuna flavor" suspension liquid and she demands it each morning. She is our 19-year-old boss lady and she tells me if she isn't getting her morning fix. Everything else is pretty good considering her rather advanced age.

The Red Prince, at age four, was pronounced healthy and really quite gorgeous. He is a good size and weight and was even fairly calm with Dr. Elliott. The ladies in the office said he has "soulful eyes", and I would agree.

So I have a young lady-killer male cat and an aged druggie female. Whoda thought?
