george is mad at me

“Leave the cat alone!”

“Stop harassing the cat!”

I repeat these phrases multiple times a day.

Well, I’ve been the one annoying George the last two days. I blame DH. Heh. He mentioned it was time for more George pictures on the blog and I realized he was right. So, I followed the cat around all last evening trying to get a good shot. He didn’t cooperate at all.

I had to entice him with the camera string and here’s the best I got:

I tried again this morning but…he had a vet appointment at noon so he couldn’t go outside. That made him even more irritated. Every move I made, he followed me, and meowed at me, but if I pulled out the camera, he wouldn’t even look at me.

The outside is so close and yet so far. Sad kitty:

Then I brought out something that really caught his attention:

What’s this? Ahhh, the kitty carrier. Let’s check it out:

Okay, I admit, that’s a really crappy picture of George, and geez look at all the clutter! However, I included it because unbeknownst to me, I snapped the image just as a little boy ran through the room. Click on the photo to enlarge it and you’ll see what I mean, (and look at those cute toes!) Welcome to my world.

Uh, oh. Here we go. Off to the vet:

Poor kitty. He didn’t like his visit at all. Whenever he goes to the vet I always warn them when they take him out back for blood work or shots. He bites. He scratches. He hisses. He’s pissed. And the stress? It makes him shed and drool. It’s awful.

Anyway, his only diagnoses? Probably worms (thanks to his disgusting mice habit) and….yes, my friends, he’s fat, (also probably because of his disguising mice habit.) Not my fault at all.

You’re on a diet now George:

I know it’s depressing sweetie. Been there, done that.

    Whoa. Cool picture of your boy’s leg. It looks like a ghost was floating through the room.

    those are adorable pics! I would love to get a cat, but the SO says two Bullies are enough.

    Hi George,

    My name is Gracie. I am a Canine Urban Princess (a CUPPIE, a term coined by my nerdy copywriter mom, Cathy). I have a feline roommate who looks just like you, except she’s 19 and probably won’t be with us much longer.

    Personally, I think Tiger is a useless parasite but my mom adores her. I even blogged about her (we CUPPIES have our own blogs). Come visit us and leave a message. I’m posting photos, too, even for cats.
