Cleared!
Today was Mac’s final visit to the vet for that broken leg of his! Luckily everything healed properly and he’s set for a happy life of climbing curtains, eating strings and kicking litter all over the freshly vacuumed floor.
He was actually sleeping this morning when we had to leave…for those of you who don’t know, Macintosh NEVER sleeps. I felt like I was waking him up for school. I thought it would be cruel to throw him in the kitty carrier when he didn’t know it was coming, I felt I should give him the opportunity for a fair fight. I grabbed my jacket and keys which is Mac’s cue to guard the door and say “Mommy don’t leeeeave!” Little did he know that today he was coming with me.
I put the box in front of the door where he was barricading and he walked right in. Easiest thing I have ever done. I actually think Sunny wanted to come too. Once I got down the stairs of the building and Mac could see daylight, he knew he was in deep. He started screaming and knew where he was going.
He was pretty good the whole way and time there. I kept sticking my fingers in his carrier to let him know I was still there, since he has nightmares about the time they took him in the back to take xrays and he didnt see mommy for 2 days. I wanted to reassure him that they wouldn’t take him in the back again, but the poor guy still has to be neutered! At least then he’ll have Sunny to keep him company.
Once we were back in the car Mac didn’t say a word. The sun was shining on him which made him sleepy and he slept the entire way home. I guess he knows I’ve never put him back in the car and proceeded to take him back to the vet. That would just be mean.
He was so tired he didn’t even ask to go to McDonald’s and play in the ball pit as I promised. Just one cookie later (I had a bunch ready to buy his forgiveness) and Mac said, “Vet? What vet? I didn’t go to the vet today” :chases Sunny:
Santa Claws will have to bring him extra cookies.

So glad to hear that the Vet went well! I’m sure Santa Claws will bring him lots of cookies for being so good. We all know he’s on Santa’s good list! Let me know when the McDonald’s party is…..I’ll bring Cinderella and Tinkerbell too……they’re dying to go in the ball pit .

He walked right into it??! How easy was that?
I’m glad he’s ok….I still have nightmares too of the time Momma was pulled away from me & I had to stay at the stabby place for 2 days.
