《Josephine and Julie》OK daddy bye

《Peyton》Bye, I walk out of the classroom and walk out of the school and head to work once I get to work I see Rowan standing there at the door, hey I'm sorry I'm late you been waiting long?

《Rowan》Hey no not at all

《Peyton》OK come on in and I'll show you around we both walk in, OK well this is where you'll be answering calls and taking down appointments and over here are the exam rooms where I might need you in one of the exam rooms with me if needed but mainly your job is answering the phone and taking down appointments, any questions?

《Rowan》Just one what are my hours?

《Peyton》From 9:30 A.M. until closing at 5:30 P.M. OK well that's about it I look at the wall chart and it says that I have Karen and her cat Fluffy, just after I said that the door open and in walked Karen and her cat Fluffy, Karen right this way I walk into the exam room OK Karen what seems to be wrong with your cat?

《Karen》She's eating a lot more then usual and she's been sleeping all the time and when I touch her on her belly it seems hard to the touch

《Peyton》Alright let's see what's going on as I'm examining her stomach it does feel hard to the touch I know Fluffy I know I'm almost done when I'm done with the examination I look at Karen it looks like she might be pregnant but I won't know for sure until I do an ultrasound on her stomach

《Karen》Are you saying you think she's pregnant

《Peyton》I don't know I have to check, why don't you go sit in the waiting room while I give Fluffy here an ultrasound OK? She nods and kisses her cat on it's head and she was about to walk out to the waiting room until I stopped her, oh um Karen can you tell my nurse receptionist to come into exam room 1 please? She nods again and then walks out the door, and soon after Karen walked out the door Rowan walked into the room

《Rowan》Doctor Meyer what can I do for you?

《Peyton》Ah yes Rowan I need you to come hold Fluffy down while I do an ultrasound on her belly

《Rowan》OK I grab some disposable rubber gloves and put them on and walk over to the examination table to hold down the cat while Peyton starts on the ultrasound

《Peyton》Alright Fluffy let's get you an ultrasound to see what is going on in there, while Rowan is holding down Fluffy I start doing the ultrasound it's OK Fluffy I'm almost done just one more second as I'm looking at the ultrasound screen I do indeed see that she's pregnant and actually it looks like she's about to give birth, Rowan can you go get Karen and tell her to come back in here please? She nods and walks out of the room while I get Fluffy in a nice soft cat birthing bed, when Rowan and Karen walk back in and Karen sees Fluffy she walks up to her and looks at me and says

《Karen》Why is Fluffy in a cat birthing bed?

《Peyton》That's because she's pregnant and actually she's about to give birth, just after I said that Fluffy let out a small cry so I pet her on the head it's OK girl it's OK go ahead about 20 minutes later the 1st kitten is out then the 2nd kitten then the 3rd kitten then the 4th kitten then the 5th kitten then the 6th kitten and finally the last one the 7th kitten, I look at Karen she had a total of 7 kittens and look at that now Fluffy is relaxed and letting her babies nurse

《Karen》How long until the kittens can be weaned from their mother

《Peyton》Eight to ten weeks

《Karen》OK, well are Fluffy and the kittens ready to go home?

《Peyton》Yeah just let me get you a bigger cat carrier for Fluffy and the kittens she nods and I walk out of the room to go get the bigger cat carrier on my way to the storage room I see Rowan back at the front desk so I walk to the storage room to get the bigger cat carrier once I got it I walk back to the room with the cat carrier in hand here you go I open the cat carrier and then I carefully pick up Fluffy and put her in the carrier and then I pick up the kittens one by one and put them in the carrier with the mother then I close up the carrier and hand it to Karen, don't forget it's eight to ten weeks and then you can either start weaning them from Fluffy yourself or you can bring Fluffy and the kittens back in here and then we can do the weaning process here

《Karen》Thank you doctor Meyer bye

《Peyton》Your welcome bye Karen
