I took my Mia to the vet yesterday for her check up and shots. I asked the vet about the crying thing and he did a whole look over and said that he can't find any medical reason of why she's crying. He said that most cats that start crying are older and have lost their eyesight or have arthritis or something like that. She's only 3 so he said if I wanted to spend like $300 on blood work, he'd do it but doesn't think it necessary. I felt better about it and we both figure she's just "talking". Well I wish she shut the hell up!
He gave me some medicine for her watery eye, 2 shots, a supplement to put on her food to help control her shedding and get this, some kitty antidepresants for the crying. Their called Clomicalm. I googled the drug and it says that it used on animals for "seperation anxiety". WTF? I'm not gonna give them to her. The website also said that along with dogs and cats, people can take this drug too. Um, ok, now I'm definately not giving it to her; I'm taking that shit myself!
I'm starting to get a bit nervous about starting this new job on Monday. I'm super excited though too and I kinda wish it'd start already. I hate waiting. I am a very impatient person. Well I guess I'd better enjoy my time off while it lasts, the first 4 months are training and I'm not alllowed to use any of my vacation days. Wow that is the coolest thing I've ever written: vacation days. I never had a sick day or vacation day ever! If I didn't go to work, I didn't make any money! This is gonna be so cool.
Antidepressants for a cat? Wow...never heard of that one before.
ReplyDeleteHaha, who isn't a bit nervous before starting a new job? I hope your first four months don't give you any troubles. (:
You're going to be a person soon!
ReplyDeleteYou'll be able to bitch about the copy machine and tell people how the man is trying to get you down.
How I miss it...
You may not blog as much as in the past. I have noticed that most folks with office jobs only post about once every two or three weeks. That is unless they have a co-worker who they really, really despise.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with your new job!
ReplyDeleteSo when my kitty Sophia was a baby and meowed I thought it was so dang adorable I would meow back at her. She quickly learned that if she made noise I would pay attention to her. Stupid me because now she cries all. the. time. Oopsies.
ReplyDelete" I felt better about it and we both figure she's just "talking". Well I wish she shut the hell up!"
ReplyDeleteHAHAHAHAHAHAHA...OMG, that was so funny because I know how you feel. I had a cat that did the same thing. And for as much as I loved him, it drove me INSANE!!!!
I am SOOOO excited for you about starting your new job on Monday!! Being nervis about starting something new is totally natural. I get the same way myself. It's the unknown.
Yes, enjoy your next four days off because I hear the weather here in PA is going to be GORGEOUS!
